16.06.2021 09:13:01 | Last year the Prostějov tournament had a promising development: Jiří Lehečka surprisingly advanced to the semi-finals. This Tuesday he was to confirm his recent weeks’ good form at MONETA Czech Open, but Klein of Slovakia was more patient.
However, there is still a great chance the Czech tennis could be represented in the singles semi-finals! A glance at the lower section of today’s schedule is quite revealing: the last four places are occupied by Czech players. Who can possibly block their way to the last four? Thirty-year-old Tobias Kamke (ATP 240) of Germany, whose career high in ATP ranking was No. 64, will play the a major role. He has already played Veselý three times and never won a single set.If Veselý defeats the German for the fourth time, the road to the semi-finals will open for the Czech tennis. Veselý would battle for it against the winner of the match between two Czechs: Kopřiva and Kolář, who will open Wednesday’s program on court No. 1.Veselý and Kamke will play the third match on the Center Court. Today’s schedule will start with the duel of Michael Vrbenský (ATP 287) against the fifth seeded Dellien (ATP 129) of Bolivia. It will be followed by another match featuring a Czech player: Dalibor Svrčina (ATP 588) will face the qualifier Erler (ATP 354) of Austria.
