Holger Vitus Nodskov Rune is pretty nimble. On the tennis court. But also in his press conferences. It just gushes out of the 18-year-old Dane, who confidently reached the round of 16 of the Generali Open 2021 on Tuesday with a 6: 3 and 6: 4 against Stefano Travaglia. Well, at 5-2 in the second set, Rune's arm was shaking a little. Understandably, one would like to say: after all, the first entry into the top 200 of the ATP world rankings was at stake. And that after Runde started the year as number 475.

The next task would be a different one, Rune explained in a hurry. Because Arthur Rinderknech, who only made the jump from the ATP Challenger to the “real” tour in ATP this year, would offer a different kind of tennis than Travaglia: With more oomph to get to the point. He I trained with the French once, and that's when he got that impression, Holger Runde continued.

Rinderknech against Delbonis sovereign

Rinderknech is currently at position 91 in the ATP charts and has reached the quarter-finals in Bastad and Gstaad in the past two weeks. The appearances at the high altitude of Switzerland are remarkable: There the 26-year-old first won against Dominic Stephan Stricker, the honestly talented junior winner of the 2020 French Open. And then Rinderknech prevailed against Roberto Bautista Agut, who was in second place in Kitzbühel goes.

Arthur Rinderknech also proved in his first round on Tuesday that he likes the altitude: He defeated Federico Delbonis, the Argentine old master, with an astonishingly smooth two sets. The best conditions for a balanced fight in the Betway Match of the Day on Wednesday.
