Argentina’s Tomas Martin Etcheverry (33rd) knocked out Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard (52nd in the world) 6-4, 6-2, 6-3 in the first round of the US Open on Monday Argentina’s Tomas Martin Etcheverry ( 33rd) 6-4, 6-2, 6-3. digested. The 21-year-old, who reached the round of 16 at Wimbledon in July, was not his usual efficiency on serve (15 aces, but five breaks conceded). He called the doctor during the third set, a thorn in his finger was bothering him while he was serving. “They didn’t have tweezers, and I had to wait for the change of ends. It was a little annoying at the time, but that’s not why I lost the game.”he declared.

Far from sheltering behind this incident, the Lyonnais was very strict in his performance. “It was very bad, there are few things to remember, it was a very tough game. I think it was the worst game I had for a long time. I was not present in the service, I was not present on the back, even in the game I didn’t enjoy executing my plan. It was a very difficult game. When you have a lot of ambition and you make a game like that, it hurts, I don’t have to just to close my mouth back to training and think about how to improve.

At 21, Mpetshi Perricard still has a lot to learn, naturally. His career at Wimbledon has drawn him attention, but the hardest part will be confirming when he has recorded his fourth consecutive victory. “With me, the lack of confidence will be seen more easily than with a player who directs the game a little more with his short baseline.he added again. I just need to have five, ten, 15, 20% less and I’m an average player, a player who doesn’t do badly. Against 30th in the world, that doesn’t work. Then, I put in nine games, I got blown up. When there is a little more restriction, a little less intention, it is not possible. I double-faulted due to lack of commitment, I made forehands that didn’t come out of the rack, returns that didn’t involve any risk. This is not acceptable when you have a style of play like mine.”.
