The duel, in which the conditions were dictated by the third Spanish rocket, lasted 1 hour 54 minutes.

Not only will Mr. Carreño-Busta be among the top 16 entrants in the prestigious New York competition, he will also have the opportunity to escape with the best tennis player in the world, Serbian Novak Dkovic (ATP 1).

Despite the failure, Berankis, who reached the third round of the US Open for the first time in his career, will not return empty-handed: he earned 90 ATP qualification points and 163,000 US dollars (136,000 euros).

By the way, Father Carreno-Busta himself arrested Richard last year; then in the second stage, the Lithuanian did not meet 4: 6, 7: 6 (7: 3), 2: 6, 0: 6.

Match progress:

Showing great form, R. Berankis started this stage impressively: when he passed the opponent, he immediately shot forward 40: 0 and confidently won the first game – 1: 0. Although the experienced Spaniard did not get rid of cancer at all and immediately responded at the same time (1: 1), the Lithuanian did not retreat and got back what he already had – 2: 1.

However, P. Carreno-Busta did not allow the Vilnius player to establish his advantage and for the second time in a row he tied the score (2: 2), and soon took the lead – 2: 3. Richard did not bother and sped up and He advanced: after two consecutive “aces” – passes, which his opponent did not touch – 4: 4.

Unfortunately, R. Berankis did not have a tenth game, during which he was ahead at 30:15, but then he began to make mistakes, including double submission, and gave both the game and the set – 4: 6.

As if angry with himself, the Lithuanian began to dictate the conditions at the beginning of the second set and resolutely broke the opponent’s series of passes: 1: 0. In the difficult second game, the Spanish again triumphed and at the same time the Spanish he repeated the script from the first set – 1: 1.

After catching the game, P. Carreño-Busta even made some fantastic shots and added three more games in a row and started to walk away from the Lithuanian – 4: 4.

R. Berankis was not helped by the change of shirt: Richard, who changed from red to black, still could not bring intrigue in the second set – 3: 6.

The Lithuanian tennis player started the third set with a dry victory and received praise from the Eurosport 2 TV commentator who broadcast the match. No less solidly, the Spaniard made his claims: 1: 1.

And he didn’t stop there: R. Berankis, who got into trouble during his passing, finally cut the ball at the net and was already behind – 1: 3.

In the next game, even after descending 0:40, the Lithuanian did not raise his arms, showed the character of the fighter and smoothed out his delay – 2: 3.
