The former is defeated by the Pole Hubert Hurkacz (ATP 11) 6: 4, 3: 6, 2: 6, the latter has to bow to Alex de Minaur (ATP 23) 3: 6, 3: 6.
For Riedi (ATP 133), who had celebrated his first success on the ATP tour two days earlier against the Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech, the match against Hurkacz, the number 1 in Marseille, started ideally. He broke the strong serving post straight away to make it 1:0 and took the lead to winning the set over the rounds.
In sets 2 and 3, however, the finalist at the French Open for juniors in 2020 had no chance. After more than an hour and a quarter, Hurkacz used the first match ball on his own service.
Ritschard (ATP 187), also in Zurich, hit 7 aces against Australian De Minaur, but didn’t use his only break ball. Especially in the second leg, his opponent had clear advantages.
Stan Wawrinka will compete in the quarterfinals in Marseille. The veteran meets the hopeful Arthur Fils of France. The 18-year-old number 118 in the world rankings qualified playless for the game against Romand, because Italy’s Jannik Sinner gave up due to a fever attack.
