This Sunday, the Australian Open saw the farewell of last year’s finalist. Stefanos Tsitsipas falls 7-6(3), 5-7, 6-3 and 6-3 against Taylor Fritz in a colorful match that delighted the crowd that thronged the court.
Morgan Riddle, the tennis player’s partner, is on the stand. American, who became the main character after the crash.
The reason? The challenge he threw at his girlfriend the day before. He told him that if he beat Tsitsipas he would eat an entire bottle of ‘Vegemite’a spread made with yeast extract that is very popular in Australia.
Well, everyone seems to know the bet, because As soon as the game was over, the interviewer gave Fritz the boat.to everyone’s delight.
“I will make sure you follow“said the American, who admitted that he was not a big fan of this strange product, laughing.
Judging by his actions in the stands, Morgan doesn’t want to follow either… but it is what is needed.
Fritz bursts with joy as he achieves his first Grand Slam top-10 success after eleven losses. The American, 26 years old and world number 12, entered the quarterfinals in Australia for the first time, where Novak Djokovic, with whom he has a record of 0-8, awaits him.
For Tsitsipas, a pitcher of cold water. He defended the final of the previous edition, he is still in danger of falling out of the top-10, which almost closes by safely dropping from seventh to tenth place in the classification. It is in the hands of Australian Alex de Minaur, who if he beats Andrey Rublev in Melbourne will remove the Greek from the top ten club.
