With a rest-winning hit, Pablo Andújar defeated the great hope of Swiss tennis, Dominic Stephan Stricker, 4-6, 6-4 and 6-4 in 2h: 12 at the Open of Geneva to reach the semi-finals. Two days before, he had done the same with the world and country legend, Roger Federer.

With poise, the veteran Andújar (35 years and 75º) he overcame a set against and 3-1 in the second. In the third, with 4-1 in favor, he saw Stricker equalize him, but remained calm against the left-hander.

If Nadal's Spain has its future star in Carlos Alcaraz placeholder image, Roger Federer's Switzerland seems to have found it in Dominic Stephan Stricker. Federer, aware of the evolution of the junior champion at Roland Garros in 2020, took him to Dubai for three weeks in preseason to practice sparring. Something has learned.

The 18-year-old (419th in the world) made his debut in an ATP Tour main draw in Geneva, defeating a US Open champion like Marin Cilic. and Martin Fucsovics. But Andújar put a stop to it.

The rival of the Cuenca based in Valencia in the semifinal tomorrow (13:00, TDP) will be the Norwegian Casper Ruud, who beat Daniel Koepfer 2-6, 6-1 and 6-4.
