5.50pm For those who win, best wishes. There is a Matteo Berrettini who is more pissed off than ever.
Players on the field!
5.47pm It’s the rematch of the quarter-finals in Adelaide. On that occasion, in a crazy match, the Kazakh won 7-5 in the third, not without regrets for the Carrarino. On grass, Bublik, the outgoing Wimbledon eighth finalist, is clearly the favourite.
5.44pm The two therefore meet again after the quarter-finals in Adelaide, to challenge the double champion from Stuttgart Matteo Berrettini in the semi-final, who has just defeated James Duckworth in straight sets!
5.40pm We’ll be leaving soon.
3.30pm Raindrops. Start of the match between Berrettini and Duckworth postponed.
3.00pm Tiafoe concludes his title defense. Forward winning 7-6 at the third Draper. Now Berrettini-Duckworth and then Musetti!!!
12.55 Tiafoe and Draper are on the pitch. Struff retired, Nakashima ahead. Berrettini’s match will therefore be at 2.30pm! After that it will be the turn of Musetti and Bublik.
11.12am It’s raining in Germany, start postponed to 11.30am.
Good morning friends of OA Sport and welcome to the Live broadcast of the ATP quarter-final in Stuttgart between Lorenzo Musetti and Alexander Bublik
Rematch of the ATP quarter-final in Adelaide at the beginning of 2024, when the Kazakh won after more than 2 and a half hours of battle with a score of 6-3, 6-7, 7-5. Bublik also won the previous one in 2022, on the grass of Queen’s and therefore more referable, however taking advantage of Carrarino’s retirement 6-3 down. Game played on equal terms, even if the bookmakers see the histrionic player from Gatchina as the favorite by force of circumstances, not least of which is the ranking. For those who win, a semi-final against Matteo Berrettini or James Duckworth.
On the way to Wimbledon, where Musetti and Bublik defend the 3rd round and round of 16 respectively, Stuttgart has always been a tournament frequented by players who are very adaptable to the green surface. The fact that the Italian reached the quarterfinals by beating Mpetshi-Perricard and Koepfer in a tie-break festival is certainly positive. We remember that the Tuscan must defend a top seed place at the Championships, given that it is virtually 30° at the moment. To gain ground you need at least the semi-final, given that the blue would discard the 50 points from the quarter-finals.
All that remains is to wish you a good continuation with the Live broadcast of the ATP quarter-final in Stuttgart between Lorenzo Musetti and Alexander Bublik. We start as the 4th match from 11am (NB 4.30pm) after the first three quarter-finals Tiafoe-Korda; Struff-Nakashima and Berrettini-Duckworth.
