Martina Trevisan loses against Rybakina in the quarterfinals in Miami-Corriere.it

He had done more than his duty
Martina Trevisan, out in the quarterfinals in Miami after a big tournament. Too strong, for the Tuscan player, the Russian naturalized Kazakh Elena Rybakina, who won their 10th straight game after also triumphing at Indian Wells. She ended up 6-3 6-0 in one hour and 12′, with the match which actually lasted only one set, the one in which Martina had the most chances. Three unexploited break points in the third game (and lost service immediately afterwards), a serve snatched from the opponent in the seventh thanks also to the help of the tape but immediately returned in the eighth.

Second set one way, started with a break to zero of the world number 7, but in a state of form for a higher ranking, as also demonstrated by one of the most effective serves on the women’s circuit. Ten aces for her, none for the Italian, who has other characteristics but that Rybakina’s physical power paid off. For Martina, while awaiting the clay court season where the semifinal will have to be defended at the last Roland Garros, the classification remains ever better: Trevisan had started the tournament as number 24, he will finish very close to the Top 20 (to be understood if it is at number 20, but it will depend on the other results).

During the night it’s also up to Lorenzo Sonego, opposed to the Argentine Francisco Cerundolo, world number 31 to go to the quarterfinals (a goal already achieved by Jannik Sinner, who will challenge the Finnish Ruusuvuori): for whoever wins there is one between Khachanov and Tsitsipas.
