Roland Garros, Sinner gives up a set but then flies: beaten the Frenchman Moutet
The race for the throne of world number 1 continues. The next opponent, on Tuesday, will be the Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov
ROME – Janinik Sinner wins, and reaches the quarter-finals of Roland Garros. The Frenchman Corentin Moutet was beaten in 4 sets (2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-1) after a nightmare start for the South Tyrolean tennis player, who had not yet lost a set and instead found himself down 5-0… Unrecognizable. Then Sinner woke up, the serve and shots returned, and for Moutet there was no escape, despite his (and the public’s) attempts to unnerve the blue. The race for the throne of world number 1 continues. The next opponent, on Tuesday, will be the Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov.
However, on the red clay of Paris, the journey of Matteo Arnaldi has come to an end. Against Stefanos Tsitsipas he was in the match for two sets, then lost to the Greek: 6-3, 6-7, 2-6, 2-6.
Among the women out Elisabetta Cocciaretto, However, she did well to reach the round of 16: the American Coco Gauff, seeded number 3, was too strong. The Italian was defeated with a clear 6-1 6-2. The satisfaction of the goal achieved remains: for Cocciaretto it was the first time in the round of 16 of a Slam.
