TOKYO (JAPAN) (ITALPRESS) – One win and one loss. This is the balance of the two Italian tennis players engaged today in the first round of the “Kinoshita Group Japan Open Tennis Championships,” Atp 500 with a prize pool of $1,818,380, underway on the concrete of Tokyo’s Ariake Colosseum. Matteo Berrettini makes his debut with a win. The Roman, ranked No. 45, won over Dutchman Botic Van De Zandschulp (67 Atp) in two sets with a score of 6-3, 6-4. In the second round, the Italian will take on the winner of the match between U.S. first seed Taylor Fritz and Frenchman Athur Fils. Immediately eliminated, however, was Luciano Darderi, who surrendered in two sets (double 6-4) to Argentina’s Mariano Navone.- Photo Ipa Agency -(ITALPRESS).
