The Spanish tennis player Alejandro Davidivich entered this Monday into the final of the Chengdu tournament, of the ATP 250 category and which is played on a hard surface, after coming back in the semifinals against the Georgian Nikoloz Basilashvili (4-6, 6-4, 6-3) in almost two hours of play.
Alejandro Davidovich will play this Tuesday the fifth final of his career on the ATP circuit. A final in which he will try to add his first title and which he arrives after coming back in the semifinals against the Georgian Basilashvili, who took advantage in the match after an outstanding first set on serve. However, the man from Malaga was able to turn the match around by being accurate in three of the four break points in the second and third rounds.
And the first set fell to the Georgian thanks to a solitary break in the first game of the match. A hesitant start that cost him to lose his first set in the tournament. Of course, Davidovich would react at the start of the second set with a 3-0 run, to which Basilashvili would respond with a break in the seventh game. Thus, with everything tied, two new consecutive games by the Spaniard, with the score (4-4), allowed him to tie the match at one set.
In the third and final round, Davidovich knew how to take advantage of one of his only two break options to take advantage of the scoreboard, as well as suffer with his serve to save six break balls against him. And in the ninth game, on serve and on the first match point, the Andalusian tennis player sealed his place in the final. A title match in which he will face the Polish Hubert Hurkacz or the Canadian Denis Shapovalov.
