(Q) Learner Tien vs. Lorenzo Sonego

Learner Tien may communicate eloquently in regards to the struggles of “a lot” of tennis. The American teenager was pressured to qualify for the Australian Open. He has since dispatched Camilo Ugo Carabelli in 5 powerful units, No. 5 seed Daniil Medvedev in one other 5 units, and Corentin Moutet within the third spherical. Tien is ranked 121st on the earth, though that’s going to alter in a giant means after his efficiency this fortnight.

In distinction to Shelton, Tien’s sport is constructed on techniques and economic system. It’s not a lot that he doesn’t have energy, it’s that he solely makes use of it when the time is true. He has by no means performed Lorenzo Sonego, however that’s hardly stunning contemplating he has spent the final couple of years on the Futures and Challenger Excursions–and one semester at school.

Sonego didn’t upset any seeds en path to the fourth spherical, however he had win over gifted teen Joao Fonseca within the second spherical. Primarily based on type, the nod has to go to Tien, but when the fatigue of a lot tennis catches up with the younger American, Sonego is well-positioned to take benefit.
