Novak Djokovic was down 1-5 dur- ing his fi rst set against Jan-Lennard Struff on Monday but he then produced a fi ghtback that saw him win the fi rst set and then wrap up the second set and the match with ease. Yesterday, Andy Murray, playing his fi rst round match against Jeremy Char- dy, came out guns blazing, and took the fi rst set 6-0. And then in the second set, he huff ed and puff ed, was broken once and then pulled it back together in the tie-breaker to claim a straight sets victory. The scoreline read 6-0, 7-6 (2) but the second set could have gone in either direction. The characters com- ing through, don’t you think? It’s, undoubtedly, reading too much between the lines but it does make for an interesting comparison. What’s good is that the fans at the Khalifa In- ternational Complex – quite a few had turned up to support Murray – saw good tennis being played in the second set. And they would also be happy that ‘their man’ had progressed into the second round. “He (Chardy) stepped it up big time but didn’t start too well,” said Mur- ray after the match. “The fi rst match of the year is always diffi cult and we were probably both a bit nervous at the start,” the Scot added. In the fi rst set, Chardy couldn’t get his rhythm with shots being missed and it looked like Murray would double- bagel him. But in the second set, the Frenchman began to serve better and his shots too started staying inside the tramlines. “He didn’t serve too well in the fi rst set but was a lot more aggres- sive in the second and pushed me hard,” said Murray on his opponent’s resur- gence in the second set. Andy Murray en route to a straight-set win over Jeremy Chardy in the first round of the Qatar ExxonMobil Open at the Khalifa International Complex in Doha yesterday. PICTURES: Noushad Thekkayil The world No. 1 said that he “liked the conditions” here and was looking forward to doing better as the tourna- ment and the season goes on. “The last fi ve or six months of last year were the best I have played consistently but I’ve got to keep getting better. I fi nally made it to number one after 12 months of try- ing. I had a lot of tough losses but I got there,” said Murray. This win now takes Murray’s unbeaten run to 25 matches. The Brit will now take on Austrian Gerald Melzer, who came from a set down to defeat Frenchman Paul-Henri Mathieu 6-7 (2), 6-3, 6-2. The match lasted an exact two hours.

    7.–13. 6. tenisové kurty Slovana Bratislava Dotácia: 66 640 € Udržať sériu ATP je vždy výzva Hlavný organizátor bratislavského turnaja Branislav Stankovič udržal kontinuitu podujatia aj v čase pandémie. A to aj napriek rok trvajúcim obmedzeniam. Vlani sa turnaj Bratislava Open uskutočnil mimo challengerovej série ATP iba s domácou konkurenciou, tohto roku sa vracia tradičný medzinárodný formát. Kooperativa Bratislava Open sa uskutoční 7. – 13. júna 2021 na dvorcoch Slovana opäť ako súčasť série challengerov ATP. Bude to už 18. ročník podujatia pod taktovkou Stankoviča, ktorému pomáhajú Miloslav Mečíř a Marián Vajda, generační druhovia a priatelia z profesionálnych tenisových rokov. „Udržať turnaj v sérii ATP je vždy veľká výzva. Vlani sa nedalo cestovať pre koronavírus, ale vďaka partnerom sme usporiadali turnaj pre našich najlepších tenistov a po prvý raz aj pre ženy. Teraz sme v neistote čakali aká bude epidemická situácia. Vo februári padlo rozhodnutie, že sa challenger Kooperativa Bratislava Open uskutoční,“ popisuje kľúčový čas pre definitívu Branislav Stankovič. Pôvodne sa v Bratislave malo hrať v termíne po Roland Garros. Pravda, štart grandslamového turnaja posunuli pre zlú epidemickú situáciu vo Francúzsku o týždeň. Uskutoční sa od 30. mája do 13. júna 2021. Znamená to, že bratislavský challenger sa hrá paralelne s druhým týždňom v Paríži. „Challengerové turnaje namiesto 4 týždňov nahustili do 3 týždňov. Náš nový termín od 7. júna výdatne pomohol vylobovať Marián Vajda. Z hľadiska antukárov je to veľmi dobrý termín,“ poznamenáva Stankovič. Pavúk kvalifikácie bude 16-členný a hlavného turnaja 32-členný (naposledy v roku 2019 bol 48-členný). Turnajová dotácia sa nezmenila (tohto roku 66 640 €), hospitality sa rozšírilo aj na kvalifikáciu.

In the first days of a lengthy regional tour, the king has appeared with top-ranking officials in Indonesia and Malaysia in pictures and clips that have been shared online millions of times. Indonesian President Joko Widodo shared on Facebook a video of himself dining with the king at the presidential palace in Bogor, near the capital Jakarta. In the video, both men comment on the vis- it, the first to Indonesia by a Saudi king in nearly five decades, and give viewers a rare peek into a state event. As Widodo holds what appears to be a phone camera, the king is seen dining before com- menting in Arabic on his 12-day visit to Indonesia, the longest leg of his month-long tour of Asia. “I’m very happy to be here in Indonesia and with the Indonesian people,” King Salman says to the camera, as an interpreter sitting behind him translates into Bahasa Indonesia. The king was also pho- tographed posing for a selfie with former president Megawati Sukarnoputri and her daughter Puan Maharani, who is a member of Widodo’s cabinet.
