08.09.2020 09:53:41 | Roland Herfel, an experienced and dedicated supervisor came with an offer that the Russian player Aslan Karatsev (ATP 140), who literally dominated in the first three large Czech challengers after the pandemic, could appear in the program of the Moneta Czech Opens main event on the second day. He only lost to the triple Grand Slam champion Stan Wawrinka of Switzerland in the final at tvanice in Prague! Then he clearly dominated at the Spoje Tennis Center and in Ostrava. He defeated Oscar Otte of Germany in the final at the center court in SC Ostrava on Sunday.
The champion confirmed his current great form by winning nineteen of twenty matches recently! The twenty-seven-year-old native of Moscow built on his triumph in Prague and did not lose a single set in the entire tournament. Who would Karatsev play? He would meet Yannick Maden of Germany (ATP 149). However, rumor has it that the Russian is tired after the third challenger and does not feel like appearing in Prostėjov… The supervisor Roland Herfel was not a hundred percent sure yesterday and that was naturally why Karatsev was included in the schedule.
