The 22-year-old national driver, after his five-game win over Australian John Millman, said that if someone told him in July that he would reach the third round of the US Open, he would have laughed.
I was nervous, I told myself, I didn’t need it at all now. I got angry, I saw everything negatively, I was with what was good, so let’s see what 2021 has in store “ – The American player noted that his coronavirus test was positive in the summer, so he also had to take a step back in a demo tournament in Atlanta.
“Fortunately, I have big fans, friends who have said that everything will work out. I have felt good since then and I am very happy to be here. Said Tiafoe, who for the first time in his life reached the top 32 in the national Grand Slam tournament.
He added: he feels very good physically, he had almost no symptoms of the disease, he only had diarrhea and a headache for three days.
Tiafoe, whose best GS finish was in last year’s Australian Open quarter-finals, is currently ranked 82nd in the world rankings, but as the best of his career, he was also 29th last February. He has faced Fucsovics twice so far, both times (Geneva 2018, scum and Doha 2020, hard court) the Hungarian tennis player won. Their third meeting is expected on Saturday.
