In the challenge between the two Azzurri, the Ligurian appears with a double 7-5. After the success in Sweden, Luciano immediately on the field: in the quarterfinals he will face the Croatian Dino Prizmic
The blue derby in the Washington ATP 500 if Matteo Arnaldi won it. The Ligurian, number 44 of the world, has exceeded with a 7-5 7-5 Lorenzo Sonego, and now he will have to see it against the number one series head, Taylor Fritz, who has eliminated the Australian Vukic without problems. The one between Arnaldi and Sonego was what you expect from a derby: tense, at times beautiful, but always a lot on the wire. Two sets pulled for over two hours of good tennis, for a match where there was no lack of reversals.
The match
–
Strong in the first set is Arnaldi, with a break and a ball for the 4-1 on the Sonego service, which Sanremese wastes. Lorenzo does not make him say twice and draws the accounts, but on the 5-5 he yields the joke and Arnaldi is not wrong, taking the first part for 7-5. The second set looks like the photocopy of the first, with Arnaldi who goes on 2-0 but is recovered by Sonego, who loses his joke again on 5-5, and this time it is the break that decides the match. In the night another blue, Flavio Cobolli, will play against the Japanese Nishioka.

In Umago the magical moment of Luciano Darderi continues. The number 46 of the world has caught the quarter-finals in the Croatian ATP 250, the tenths of his career on this surface, beating without too many problems (7-5 6-0) the Taiwanese Chun-Hsin Tseng. In the next round Luciano will face Dino Prizmic, 19 year old Croatian of beautiful hopes but still not exploded at very high levels.
