Adrian Mannarino stood up well to Jannik Sinner this Wednesday in Montreal. The French left-hander, from qualifying, had a magnificent start to the match before giving in to the Italian, seeded No. 11 in Canada. The latter, led 6-2, 4-4, managed to turn the game around to finally win 2-6, 6-4, 6-2.
In the third set, Mannarino, 70th in the world, even had to call the physio to have his right knee bandaged.
Sinner, recent winner at Umag, his first title of the season, will face Spaniard Pablo Carreño Busta in the next round.
