THE LIVE LIVE OF BERRETTINI-MICHELSEN (3rd MATCH FROM 11.30)
Good morning friends of OA Sport and welcome to the Live broadcast of the 1st round match of the ATP 500 in Halle between Jannik Sinner and Tallon Griekspoor.
Very complicated debut on the lawns for the 23 year old Italian, who plays the first tournament of his life as world number 1 in the ATP rankings. Tallon Griekspoor was one of the few tennis players capable of giving him trouble in 2024. It happened in Miami, a tournament that the young man from Sesto Pusteria then won, but to do so he had to overcome the Dutch obstacle in the round of 32 5-7, 7-5, 6-1. However, Sinner prevailed in all the circumstances in which he and the world number 31 crossed the racket.
There are three other precedents, two of which were played in Rotterdam, as well as the Davis Cup, all played on indoor hard courts. We remind you that the world first position is not at stake this week, we will see if it will be at Wimbledon (1-14 July) in which Carlos Alcaraz defends the 2000 points of the 2023 final. There are all the conditions for Sinner to be able to play the tournament Olympic champion as world number 1.
After that, there is curiosity to see him working on grass again. The best result, the Wimbledon semi-final, speaks for itself. However, the heavy scalps, unlike concrete and purely due to age, have not yet arrived on the lawns. There is therefore a little more spice in a debut which, in itself, is difficult. It will be as the second match from 12:00 (after Giron-Rublev), we will offer you the Live broadcast of the match Jannik Sinner and Tallon Griekspoor, first match in the history of an Italian as n.1 in the ATP ranking!
