Cachin delivered

End of a series of 15 defeats for the Argentinian, obviously he is not going to be satisfied with just one victory!

I think after such a long series you must hate losing in a way that few people can imagine. This downward spiral really affected him mentally, he no longer had the desire to train at times. But apparently the flame was rekindled and Madrid was the place where there was the best chance of seeing him win a match again. It's done, the altitude conditions suit it really well, however opposite it was only Ofner so be careful not to catch fire either..

Because Ofner is capable of playing well but also doing anything. He tries a lot, plays hard, with little margin, in short he makes the game, the winning points and the mistakes. Tiafoe is more patient, consistent and simply better. Cachin will have to raise his level a little more to get by.
