Munar – Vesely 6: 3, 7: 6, Vesely lost in Nur-Sultan in the first round, Kvitova already knows her opponent in Ostrava

Veselý, who ranks 88th in the rankings, had a good opportunity to finish the match in the third set in the tie-break of the second set.

At 6: 4, he had two sets, but he didn’t change any. On the other hand, he gave the 71st player of the world Munar the opportunity to end the match and the Spaniard did not hesitate.

On the ATP Tour, Veselý lost the third game in a row after being eliminated in the 2nd round in Kitzbühel and the 1st round of the US Open.

Kvitová is clear

Russian tennis player Anastasia Potapovová will be Petra Kvitová’s opponent in the second round of the WTA tournament in Ostrava. The 20-year-old player, who succeeded in qualifying, managed 6: 2 and 7: 6 with the French Caroline Garcia in the first round of J&T Banka Ostrava Open 2021 today.

The two-time Wimbledon winner Kvitová is second in Ostrava and had a free draw in the first round. According to the preliminary plan, they should meet Potapova (92nd in the WTA rankings) on Wednesday from 18:00 and it will be their first match.

On the first day of the main competition in the Ostravar Arena, two Spanish tennis players won the opening match. Paula Badosa and Sara Sorribes advanced after two hundred wins.

From the point of view of domestic fans, the highlight of Tuesday’s program will be the match between Kateřina Siniaková and Tereza Martincová, who start in Ostrava for wild cards. “It is a pity that it came together like this, but at least one of us will be in the next round,” Siniak said in an online interview.

“I’m glad I have a chance to play in the main competition, because I don’t even remember ever getting a card,” said Martincová, who qualified in Ostrava last year and lost to Barbora Krejčíková in the first 1st round. At the end of the season, she feels tired, hoping to support the auditorium. “When there is nothing left to take, it will help me get out of what is no longer there,” Martincová said.
