Bad news, even in terms of the Davis Cup (where in any case he is not included in the first list of players called up) for Matteo Berrettini, that after winning the first set against the Frenchman Arthur Son in the round of 16 of the ATP 500 tournament in Tokyo, he was forced to withdraw. The 28-year-old Roman wins the first set 7-6 (7-5) in an hour and 13 minutes, and then asks for the intervention of the physiotherapist who treats his abdominal area. The blue then returns to the court but gives up after a few points in the second set.
Davis Cup, Sinner returns for the Final 8. Berrettini out, what happened
Musetti gets off to a good start in Beijing
The first one was good Lorenzo Musetti at the ATP 500 in Beijing. On the hard court of the Olympic Green Tennis Center in Beijing, the 22-year-old from Carrara, n.19 in the ranking and 6 in the seeding, fresh from the final lost in Chengdu, beat 7-5 4-6 6-3, after almost two hours and a quarter of a fight, the Belgian Zizou Bergsn.74 in the world, coming from the qualifiers. A few too many missed passes for Musetti, who made the difference especially with the second serve (71% of the points won against the Belgian’s 49%). In the second round Musetti he will deal with the Chinese Yunchaokette Bu, n.96 ATP after the semi-final in Hangzhou last week, and in the race thanks to a wild card, who came from behind to win the derby against Juncheng Shang, n.55 ATP, winner in Chengdu of his first ATP trophy by beating the Tuscan tennis player. There are no precedents between the two.
