Two tie-breaks, contest decided by small details

Arnaldi’s path to the Brisbane tournament è ended in the round of 16. The Italian, after beating, convincingly, Popyrin in the first round, è surrendered to Opelka in the next round. The 27-year-old American è won at the end of two hard-fought sets: 7-6, 7-6 the partials (in just under two hours of play).

A match that the Azure played quite well, so much so that the defeat è came only because of some details and, above all, with two tie-breaks. In the first, Arnaldi even has a set ball but fails to exploit it properly. In the second set, no break ball and victory of the U.S. with the score of 7 to 4 in the tie-break.

An important victory for Opelka who, having solved several physical problems, is aiming for a 2025 as a top player. The American wants to return to the highest level and significantly improve his ranking. The goal è to enter and remain stably in the Top 10.

In the other matches played in Brisbane, Perricard’s magic moment continues, who, after beating Kyrgios in the first round, also rules Tiafoe (6-4, 7-6), earning a place in the quarterfinals. Mensik also did well, disposing of Lajovic (6-3, 6-2 the match’s partials).

Good success, in the semifinals, over the Babos-Melichar duo

Anna Kalinskaya begins 2025 by winning the women’s doubles final at the Australian tournament in Brisbane. After having little luck in the singles (beaten by Ashlyn Kruger in her debut match), the Russian tennis player is instead thrilling in the doubles.

The fellowship with partner Priscilla Hon is going great. This is confirmed by the results. On the night, they challenged and won the match against the Bados-Melichar pair, beaten in two sets (6-1, 7-5 the two match partials).

Anna Kalinskaya and Priscilla Hon were absolutely perfect in the first set in which they dominated, conceding only one game to their opponents and showing a special fellowship. In the second set, they did well to handle the vehement reaction of their opponents and take home the pass for the very final.

The audience, of course, è all on the side of the Kalinskaya-Hon duo sinceé Priscilla Hon è Australian, so they play practically at home. At this point, the goal è to take home the trophy as well. For 26-year-old Anna Kalinskaya, it would be the fourth of her doubles career. The last one came about three years ago when she and Caty McNally won the St. Petersburg tournament. While waiting for the first singles success, it would not hurt at all to start the new season with a doubles victory.

The words of Ettore Messina

Ettore Messina spoke after his Olimpia Milano&#39s return to success at home against Asvel: “I congratulate my team for the very important win in an arena where the entire team, if I am not mistaken, before this game was 6-2. So they had a very good record at home, beating very good teams. We suffered two heavy one-point defeats at home and today I think we played a very solid game”.

“Our defense è was very good throughout the game and we were able to do a good job on some very important creators. We won in rebounding and we had a difficult time in the third quarter because we couldné t move the ball well against their defense. But then we found a better moment in the fourth quarter and, of course, we made some important shots”.

“In the moments when the ball doesn’t go in you have to keep playing the same way by making the right decisions. I think we are one of the best teams in the league from 3. What matters è that we scored some very important shots, we played together, we played hard and once again we made a very good performance. These are the wins that give us confidence”.
