Second round commitment for Jannik Sinner and Lorenzo Musetti in the “Mutua Madrid Open”, fourth Masters 1000 of the season, with a prize pool of € 6,744,165, which is being held on the clay of the “Caja Magica” of the Spanish capital (combined with a WTA 1000).
The 20 year old from Sesto Pusteria, n.12 del ranking e 10 del seeding, who at the debut canceled three match-points to the American Tommy Paul, n.35 ATP, finds on the other side of the net the Australian Alex Del Minaur, 22 ATP, semifinalist in Barcelona last week.
The South Tyrolean has won all three previous matches with the 23-year-old from Sydney: the last one took place in January in the round of 16 of the Australian Open.
The unknown factor for Jannik – who in the first round match canceled match-points for the seventh time in his career, the fourth this season after those in Dubai on Davidovich-Fokina and Miami on Ruusuvuori and on Carreno-Busta – is represented by the problem of the adductor of the left thigh.
