Times are very complicated for Hugo Gaston. Monday evening, as the cries of love tumbled down from Arthur Ashe Stadium, nearby, with each victorious racket stroke from Serena Williams, the Toulousain left the US Open on court n ° 12, logically dominated by the Kazakh, Alexander Bublik, in three identical sets (6-4, 6-4, 6-4) and 1h45 of play.
Dominated in power, cheerfully beaten in the taking of initiative and often dropped by his service in key moments, with in particular eight double faults for an ace in the end, Hugo Gaston recorded his sixth straight defeat in an ATP main draw.
Opposite, Alexander Bublik, he rarely unpinned, holding his game without too much greed, even if he released a few second balls at 215 km / h, like the one that allowed him to seal a match that he mastered without big fright, leaving Gaston with his doubts and frustrations, which have been undermining him for a while now.
