Bautista teaches Kyrgios a lesson with donut included

Roberto Bautista and Nick Kyrgios opposed their styles of play, diametrically opposed, and that of the Castellón player won by a landslide.Like him, a great Villarreal fan (he wears the shield on the sleeve of his shirt) would like to say. The solidity, seriousness and patient forcefulness of Bautista prevailed over the anarchic game, excessively upright and less and less surprising and effective from australian, who left the singles box with a beating: 6-3, 6-4 and 6-0 in less than two hours, on the edge of 1:00 EST. The Spaniard, who played a game especially with his serve (13 direct aces and 80% of points won with firsts), goes to the second round of the US Open for the seventh time, where he will see the Finn Emil Rusuuvuori (22 years old and 66th in the world), whom he has never faced.

The truth is that Kyrgios is no longer scary. Neither him nor his quirks and out-of-tones. Bautista had to arm himself with patience in the face of the wayward Aussie's continued chatter, who had them with the chair umpire, Carlos Barnardes, on account of the towels. Nick refused to leave them in the corresponding boxes on the track backs and threw them continuously to the ground, accumulating several on the track, for which he took one of the referee's notices. Kyrgios, who does not win for fines, played off center and could not do anything before Rober's display of solidity and good play.

“He is very good and has a lot of talent, I like to face him,” said Bautista, elegantly, about his rival. “I am very happy for the victory and we all like to see the people on the slopes. I hope to win many games this week and continue to enjoy this, ”he added. So far he looks good.

At a press conference, Bautista also analyzed how the match against Kyrgios was and highlighted the fact that he won in three sets. “I have been good, we have played with a lot of intensity in the rallies, with a lot of rhythm. I am very happy to have won the match in three sets. I have played with determination, I have also been solid and I have played aggressively. I'm happy to have won quickly and to go to rest as soon as possible. Now it's time to recover and think about the next game that, sure, is going to be a tough opponent. He is a young man who is aiming a lot, who has very good victories and who is going to make it very difficult for me. “
