US OPEN, NEW YORK ($ 53,402,000, hard court)
MEN’S INDIVIDUAL ROUND 2 (to reach 32)
Márton Fucsovics – Grigor Dimitrov (Bulgarian, 14) 6: 7, 7: 6, 3: 6, 6: 4, 6: 1
Nine days ago, Márton Fucsovics performed a significant feat in the second round of the championship relocated from Cincinnati to New York by defeating Grigor Dimitrov. On the one hand, he once won the scalp of another player who was once in the top 10, and on the other hand, he triumphed for the tenth time in his career against a tennis player who was among the best of his career.
The oddity of fate is that the parties met again in the next tournament, that is, in the second round of the US Open, and perhaps even Fucovich’s bloodiest fans were secretly trusting that they would be happy to win again after the next one. meeting.
Instead of seeing Dimitrov enraged by Revitr on the last pitch due to last week’s loss, trying to get revenge as soon as possible on Fucovics, who smashed the pepper under his nose, we pulled off an extremely strong match in the first set. In other words, a 2017 world champion who makes many mistakes and a very concentrated and collected game with Márton Fucsovics. Well, an unshakable serve game, five unused break balls, and then the fact that the tiebreak could come after 6: 6. Everything changed here: both Fucovich and Dimitrov took their opponent’s serve, then Fucovov scored three balls, but after 67 minutes the Bulgarian won the set.
During the first game, even Tímea Babos pushed Fucsovics in place, who would have started to appear in the women’s doubles tournament on court 12 after Fucsovics’ match on Kristina Mladenovic’s side. As Fucsovics’ game progressed, the schedule was congested …
The second set came to a tiebreaker, but the game looked very different, here we saw almost unused breakballs, Dimitrov used the first 2: 2, then the 4: 3 lead went wild: Fucsovics in the remaining five games three times, Dimitrov broke his opponent twice, in addition, the Hungarian boy intercepted no less than four game balls (!), Another abbreviation could come. This time, Fucsovics held up better, so much so that here he also took his opponent’s serve three times and then sold his third game ball, with the third break.
In the third game, a stalemate in Fucsovics’ game could be felt for the first time, perhaps Dimitrov made the slightest mistake and once, taking his opponent’s serve to 6: 3, he won the third set in just 49 minutes and was within reach.
In the fourth game, however, Fucsovics did not crash, despite immediately missing his first service game. He kept trying to get his opponent to make a mistake with a compiled game and as we progressed it became an easier task.
In fact, in the second half of the game, after 3: 2, he worked so well that he took his opponent’s serve three times in a row, although Dimitrov broke it once. Fucsovics eventually won the third game 6: 4, in which he grew mainly in the head over his opponent.
The fifth set didn’t take another turn, unless all the questions were resolved soon! The Bulgarian, already making many mistakes and becoming more and more inaccurate, was still able to win his first serve, but Fucovich’s supremacy was clear from then on. In the middle of the game, he won the match at 3: 1. The few remaining games still had to be played.
This point had it ALL

And we noticed only in a low voice that due to the prolonged game of the Fucovics, the Babos couple was transferred to another field, and thus they practically fought for the victory at the same time.
