Darderi also advances
Luciano Darderi also goes through, having beaten the Argentine Sebastian Baez in four sets: 6-3, 1-6, 6-4, 6-3 in two hours and 29 minutes. In the next round Darderi will face the Russian Karen Khachanov, who beat the American Basavareddy in three sets.
Stop for Maestrelli and the double blue
Nothing to do for Francesco Maestrelli, however, beaten by world number four Novak Djokovic with a score of 6-3, 6-2, 6-2. Disappointment also in doubles, where Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori were eliminated by the pair formed by Hendrik Jebens (Germany) and Ray Ho (Taiwan) 6-7 (6), 7-6 (2), 6-4.
