World No. 14 Matteo Berrettini will take on Spain’s Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in the fourth round of the 2022 US Open on Sunday.
Andy Murray was the opponent for Berrettini after his victories over Nicolas Jarry and Hugo Grenier. In the sixth game of the first set, the Italian saved a break point before breaking his opponent’s serve to take a 4-3 lead. Later, he was able to win the set with just this one break. Eventually, the Italian won the final three games of the set to take the victory 6-4, 6-4, 6-7 (1), 6-3.
Alejandro Davidovich Fokina beat Marton Fucsovics and Yoshihito Nishioka to go to the third round of the US Open. He next faced Stefanos Tsitispas, who had been shocked by Daniel Elahi Galan in the opening round. In the fourth set, Galan had a 4-1 lead, and it appeared that the match might go all the way. However, the Spaniard won the match 6-4, 5-7, 6-4, 6-4 by winning five straight games.
