Jannik Sinner rises again: 1-1 with Moutet

Jannik Sinner is back: after a horror first set, lost 6-2, the Azure è finally got into the game, winning the second partial 6-2 and balancing on the 1-1 against Corentin Moutet, valid for the third round of Roland Garros.

The South Tyrolean tennis player è got off to a terrible start in the first set, immediately suffering a break, and then committing a series of errors that allowed his opponent to repeat. In fact, Moutet, world number 79, broke the world number two again in the third and fifth set to the delight of the crowd thronging the Chatrier stands, almost in disbelief at the departure of their favorite.  Sinner, in total blackout, gave the first signs of awakening in the sixth game, when he è managed to recover a break, but then still surrendered 6-2: è the first set lost in the tournament by Jannik.

The second set also did not è start well, with the Frenchman’s new break still disorienting the Blue with his peculiar game and many buntings. But Sinner immediately hit the counterbreak in the second game, and then regained the solidity of his serve. The Azure regained confidence and finally entered the match, posting another break in the sixth game and closing out the second set 6-3.
