ATPTuesday, 11 February 2020 at 15:37
The first few games of the second day of action at the ABN Amro World Tennis Tournament are complete with Felix Auger-Aliassime, Alexander Bublik and Karen Khachanov all through.
Auger-Aliassime came through against Jan-Lennard Struff almost unscathed with him coming through 6-3, 1-6, 6-3 with only the second set proving to be the issue for the Canadian but he came through strongly after that.
He hit 15 aces with 75 percent on his first serve and came out the better on break points hitting 2/11; this was compared to 2/12 meaning a much closer game than the scoreline shows.
Bublik came through a much more close affair against Gregoire Barrere winning 6-3, 6-7, 6-4 in a match where his break points were timely sitting up at 3/5.
Khachanov's route through was a lot more simpler with a straight sets victory over Fabio Fognini 6-3, 6-3 as the Russian continues his good form in one of the ties of the round against the Italian.
Statistics wise he hit 69 percent on his first serve with winning percentage up at 70 percent and he also hit 4/7 of his break points with Fognini only given one opportunity which he converted.
