Lorenzo’s match will end tomorrow after the stop due to rain: the Georgian leads 7-5 4-2 in the first round in Stuttgart. I was defeated in S-Hertogenbosch

The rain in Stuttgart extends the life of Lorenzo Musetti’s hopes, hanging by a thread in the first round match against Nikoloz Basilashvili on the grass. He stops with the Georgian ahead of a set and a break: 7-5 4-2 (30-0, on the service of the number 26 in the world). The match will end on Wednesday morning after the all-French match between Rinderknech and Bonzi: after Musetti, it will be up first to Berettini (against Albot) and then to Sonego (against Struff). A day full of Italians, Simone Tartarini’s pupil will need the reversal to bring the match home: the first set lost one step away from the tiebreaker weighs, with a double foul to grant set-points (later concretized) in Basilashvili.

The others

Still on the grass, but in the Dutch tournament of S-Hertogenbosch, Andreas Seppi leaves the scene: after passing the qualifications, the veteran from Bolzano is defeated in two sets by Adrien Mannarino with a double 7-6. He was the only Italian on the scoreboard. Returning to Stuttgart: Murray (6-4 6-3 in O’Connell), Bublik (7-6 7-5 in Kudla) and Kyrgios (7-6 6-3 in Lehecka) pass the turn: the first two will face each other , while the Australian – who played a serve from below, with a blow under the legs, in the match-point – will be the opponent of the winner of the match between Musetti and Basilashvili.
