The attitude of shouting and hitting the ball was key to the defeat of the Italian
the tournament of Wimbledon always has as protagonist Rafael Nadal and on this occasion it has been thanks to the fact that it ended the resistance of Lorenzo Sonego by 6-1, 6-2 and 6-4. In addition, it should be remembered that the Spaniard has not played a Wimbledon final since 2011.
In this way, the Balearic has qualified this Saturday for the tenth time for the round of 16 of the tournament and number 53 if all the Grand Slams are counted. Single Roger Federer with 69 and Novak Djokovic with 58 they have been more times in the second week of the greats.
After his foot recovery, the Spanish tennis player is still number 1
Despite the difference in the score, there was a sting because the second favorite criticized his opponent for shouting once the ball was hit. This was warned at 4-4 in the third set. He went to the net and said it directly to the Italian with the presence of the chair umpire.
Rafa Nadal, at 36 years old, has stopped the clock of time, especially since he seems to have found an antidote for his battered left foot. As of today he is one of the seven tennis players over 36 years old, within the Open Era, in the round of 16 at Wimbledon.
Sonego’s loss to Rafa Nadal turned out to be a very frustrating situation
Sonego always shows good body language and he just needs a little more tennis. The Italian lasted three games. On the fourth he already conceded the first break. The Italian, had signed the eighth in the last edition, but he cannot be considered a specialist on grass.
His tennis is not exactly serve and volley. Rather, she is from the bottom of the court and, standing on the white line, she had a lot to lose. That is why she was clear that one of the weapons to use should be the one left. Also, you have to put them. Pressure on stage is her weakness.
