Cocciarettová – Siniaková 7:5, 4:6, 7:5, Siniaková will not play in the quarterfinals in Budapest

Siniaková, who dominated the Wimbledon doubles for the second time with Barbora Krejčíková on Sunday, played the match as if on a swing. In the first set, she did not maintain a 5:3 lead, on the contrary, she won the second after a reversal from 1:3. In the deciding set, the situation was balanced for a long time and both players struggled on serve.

However, at 5:5, Cocciarett managed to hold serve and then did not allow her opponent even a fifth. The world number three doubles player Siniakova thus missed the chance to end her almost year-long wait for the quarterfinals in singles, which she last played last August in Cleveland.

A recovered Thiem is in the quarter-finals in Bastad

After struggling with his wrist for more than a year, former third-ranked tennis player Dominic Thiem has won two matches in a row and is in the quarterfinals on clay in Bastad. He took another step on his way back to the elite with a victory over the 20th player in the world 7:6, 3:6, 6:4 Roberto Bautista from Spain.

“Winning over Emil (Ruusuvuori) gave me confidence, I know I can compete with the best in the world and I did that today against Robert,” said Thiem, who also defeated Ruusuvuori in three sets in the first round and celebrated his first ATP Tour success after 14 months. His next opponent in Sweden will be Argentine tennis player Sebastian Báez.

At another ATP tournament in Newport, USA, top seed Félix Auger-Aliassime was eliminated in the second round. The world number nine lost their opening match just like at Wimbledon, today Auger-Aliassime lost 6:4, 3:6, 6:7 to Jason Kubler. At the age of 29, the Australian is waiting for his first quarterfinal on the ATP circuit.
