the Asturian Pablo Carreno (19) joined the positive day of the Spanish so far in Melbourne Park after comfortably overcome the Argentine of the previous Tomás Martín Etchevarry by 6-1, 6-2 and 7-6 (2) in a game that slightly exceeded two hours.
Carreño joined Carlos Alcaraz, Sara Sorribes, Pedro Martínez and Rafael Nadahe as Spaniards who opened their way with victory on the opening day.
The most aggressive version of a Carreño that subdued his rival’s defensive style with 40 winners confirmed his improvement experienced during an ATP Cup in which he was a finalist after Spain’s stumble against Canada.
The next rival of the third best ranked Spanish in the ATP ranking will be known after the conclusion of the clash between the Italian Fabio Fognini and the Dutch Tallon Girekspoor.
