ATP Roundup: Ben Shelton, Alex De Minaur Survive Tough Opening Tests
Tomas Martin Etcheverry: Ben Shelton and Alex de Minaur faced tough first-round matches at the Hamburg Open. Both top-10 players needed three sets to move on in Germany.
World No. 6 Shelton, who is seeded second in Hamburg, beat lucky loser Marcos Giron 6-3, 4-6, 7-6(3). This marked Shelton’s first win since he claimed the title in Munich last month. He started strong but Giron pushed him to a deciding set. Shelton regained his focus in the tie-break to secure the win.
Third seed de Minaur also had to fight hard. He came back from a set down to defeat Argentina’s Francisco Cerundolo 3-6, 6-4, 6-3. This win ended a three-match losing streak for the Australian as he heads into the final stretch of the clay-court season.
