Querrey, Anderson Advance In Geneva
Sixth seed Sam Querrey hit 10 aces and won almost 90 per cent (34/39) of his first-serve points to spoil the ATP World Tour debut of German Daniel Altmaier 6-3, 6-4 on Monday at the Banque Eric Sturdza Geneva Open. Querrey, a titlist earlier this year in Acapulco, will next face Croatian qualifier Franko Skugor, who beat Spaniard Tommy Robredo 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 in just over two hours.
South African Kevin Anderson stayed perfect against seventh seed Paolo Lorenzi, improving to 3-0 against the Italian in their FedEx ATP Head2Head series, 7-5, 7-6(1). Anderson will next face #NextGenATP American Jared Donaldson, who dismissed the Dominican Republic’s Victor Estrella Burgos 6-2, 6-4.
German Mischa Zverev saved nine of 11 break points to beat Robin Haase 5-7, 7-6(6), 6-3 in two hours and 12 minutes. Zverev will next meet fourth seed John Isner. The American leads their FedEx ATP Head2Head series 2-1, but Zverev won their last meeting, earlier this year at the Australian Open.
