Jurij Rodionov failed to take advantage of his chances in Madrid

There was more in it for Jurij Rodionov, especially in the first set: Rodionov had several chances in the tie-break against Zhizhen Zhang to get a mini-break, but just missed a point that seemed safe once, and then a forehand landed in Network. And so it was the Chinese who finally secured entry into the second round of the ATP Mastrs 1000 tournament in Madrid after one and a half hours of play with 7: 6 (6) and 6: 4.

Dominic Thiem had done it better before, who won 6: 4 and 6: 1 against Kyle Edmund and can now compete against Stefanos Tsitsipas.
