Matteo the unstoppable
The Italian impresses by winning 2 out of 3 matches as an outsider. Will the bar be too high against the Greek?
Too high, I don't know, but higher, that's for sure. The Greek has impressive results on earth, and he has much more Grand Slam experience. Watching this match, I said to myself that Arnaldi could perhaps be Zverev's Griekspoor by pushing Tsitsipas to the 5th, and then I also said to myself that all these matches so far have been quite favorable to him. Good match up against Fils and Muller, and a Rublev who is in trouble. I simply want to say that you shouldn't find him more beautiful than he is. On the other hand, I find its consistency new. I am really pleasantly surprised by his management of the 3 winning sets format. I have the impression that he manages it much better than the 2 winning sets! On the match-up side, it’s a new confrontation between the two men. The backhand diagonal will certainly be to the Italian's advantage, but the latter has no experience at this level of Grand Slam competition. And when we see how Griekspoor got wet in 5th when he was leading by 2 breaks...
