Tomatoes frequently pick up wilt from contact with the soil when
watered. I'd guess that this is what you have. Pluck off any yellow or
wilted leaves and hope. Be careful about wetting foilage when watering.
Your luck this year will depend on how advanced it is. Next year pick
species that are VFN (I think it is called)resistant. That fungus will
be in the soil, so plant next year in a different spot and clean all
tomato debris from your garden.
