A campanha de João Fonseca no Masters 1000 de Madri chegou ao fim neste sábado (26), mas deixou uma impressão positiva. Em uma partida equilibrada contra o norte-americano Tommy Paul, número 12 do ranking mundial, o jovem brasileiro acabou derrotado e se despediu na segunda rodada da competição, realizada na Caja Mágica, na capital espanhola.
No primeiro set, o brasileiro chegou a pressionar Paul em alguns games, mas viu a experiência do adversário pesar nos momentos decisivos. No segundo set, João salvou break points importantes e arrancou aplausos do público, mas Paul conseguiu impor sua consistência e fechou a partida em sets diretos. Ele perdeu por 2 sets a 0, com parciais de 7/6 (9-7) e 7/6 (7-3), em um confronto que durou duas horas e cinco minutos.
João, de apenas 18 anos e atual 65º do mundo, vinha de uma estreia onde que venceu o dinamarquês Elmer Moller por 2 sets a 0, com parciais de 6/3 e 6/2. A atuação criou expectativas em torno do brasileiro que já havia surpreendido na temporada ao superar dois adversários do top 20 em outros torneios. João agora volta seu foco para a sequência da temporada, buscando consolidar seu nome no circuito e se aproximar dos 50 melhores do mundo.
O Masters 1000 de Madri segue com grandes nomes na disputa, como Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Daniil Medvedev e Stefanos Tsitsipas, entre outros favoritos ao título. O torneio, que faz parte da preparação para Roland Garros, é realizado nas quadras de saibro da Caja Mágica e é considerado um dos eventos mais importantes do calendário europeu de tênis.
Além do torneio masculino, o WTA 1000 de Madri também acontece simultaneamente no complexo e reúne atletas como Iga Świątek, Aryna Sabalenka e Coco Gauff.

Who he is, the person and teammate, is so familiar to them. Awe is often absent when they discuss his feats. Their cliche replies, their matter-of-factness, mock the idea of novelty in Curry’s brilliance.AdvertisementThey don’t mean it as disrespect. Instead, it’s a declaration of his reliability. They’re so exposed to his greatness, so conditioned by its consistency, their default disposition is yeah, we know.“Whatever I’ve said the last 11 years after every one of these games,” head coach Steve Kerr said, “just copy and paste.’But then a […]

Liverpool scenarios: How Reds can win the Premier League title vs. Tottenham on Sunday

They could officially clinch the title as soon as this weekend, a signal title race is still very much in Liverpool's hands, and they will be able to win it outright when they return to play on Sunday.The Reds' impressive lead comes five years after their last Premier League title, which was the only time they won the accolade, coming during Jurgen Klopp's storied eight-year spell as the manager.
