Thursday, the 84th player in the world rankings met the eighth-ranked Australian Open player this year Jeffrey John Wolf (44) in the opening round, for the second time in his career. The American won his first match last October in Vienna.
The match in California also started to the taste of the opponent’s mouth, who quickly rushed 5: 0, and after 25 minutes he was already in the group advantage. In the continuation, however, the match took a turn, as the 31-year-old Hungarian brought the spikes into line, Wolf “zeroed” and equalized barely an hour later. In the last set, the home favorite won with a score of 3: 1, but since then he has not won a single match, and the tennis player from Nyíregyháza triumphed with a five-set sweep in the series. The meeting lasted 1 hour and 42 minutes.
Australian Vusovic, the 16th seed, is waiting for Alex de Minaur among 32 players.
