Jannik Sinner’s words after victory over Mackenzie McDonald

Jannik Sinner made it through the first round of the Us Open thanks to a four-set victory over Mackenzie McDonald of the United States (2-6 6-2 6-1 6-2). The world number one, unrecognizable in the first set, changed the inertia of the challenge in the second partial and then ramped up in the last two sets.

“The match did not è start in the best way, the first match in a big tournament is not è easy – the South Tyrolean amessoed the hot, in statements reported by SuperTennis -. I tried to get into a rhythm, I am happy with the victory and the reaction”.

“Tomorrow I will have” a day of rest. We will see what he can do in the next match – added the blue -. Being able to win on the Arthur Ashe means so much to me, I thank those who è stayed to follow me and cheer for me”.

Sinner will face American Alex Michelsen in the second round. The two just met at the Cincinnati Masters 1000 with the South Tyrolean winning in two sets (6-4 7-5).

Us Open: ok Matteo Arnaldi, Fabio Fognini eliminated

Everything was easy for Matteo Arnaldi, the 30th seed in the draw, in the first round of the Us Open. The Sanremese player, in fact, won in three sets with Zachary Svajda, number 102 in the ATP ranking, with the final score of 6-3 6-2 6-1 after an hour and three quarters of play.

After a balanced first set, decided only by a break in the eighth game, Arnaldi ramped up in the second and third halves, leaving only three games to his opponent. The Italian in the next round will face Russian Roman Safiullin, who defeated American Matthew Forbes in three sets.

No dice, however, for Fabio Fognini, who must already leave Flushing Meadows. In fact, the Taggiasco player had to surrender to Tomas Machac, number 39 in the world rankings, who won in three sets with the final score of 7-5 6-1 6-3 after one hour and three quarters of play.

Fognini got off to a bad start and immediately went down 0-3. The Italian managed to recover the disadvantage, tying at 4-4 but on 5-5 Machac placed a new and decisive stretch (7-5). Second set was one-sided for the Czech (6-1), who also took advantage of a physical problem complained by Fognini. In the third partial, Fognini put up more resistance but Machac did not è make himself beg, closing 6-3.

Jannik Sinner-Mackenzie McDonald 2-6 6-2 6-1 6-2

Jannik Sinner’s journey to the Us Open begins on the right foot. After an uphill start, the world number one rediscovered himself and beat Mackenzie McDonald, world number 140, in four sets in the first round of the U.S. major, with a final score of 2-6 6-2 6-1 6-2 after 2 hours and 24 minutes of play.

The challenge starts badly for the South Tyrolean who surrenders the serve in the opening game. McDonald confirms the lead (2-0), Sinner immediately recovers (2-2) but then loses four consecutive games, with the U.S. cashing in the first partial 6-2 in the presence of a rather unrecognizable Italian.

Sinner gets off to a bad start in the second set as well, suffering the break in the opening with no less than two double faults. Here forò comes the reaction of the leader of the seeding who threads four consecutive games and closes for 6-2 the second partial, putting the set count back on a par.

From that moment on, the South Tyrolean put the arrow in his hands. The blue, in fact, overturned the initial disadvantage and went ahead by a set, dominating the third partial, which he won 6-1 after only 25 minutes. The fourth set was also without history, in which Sinner flew up 4-0 in a flash and then closed 6-2.

Sinner thus advances to the second round of the Us Open where he will find another American: Alex Michelsen, who defeated Eliot Spizzirri (6-1 7-5 6-3) in three sets.
