First round exit for Struff

Tennis professional Jan-Lennard Struff missed a surprise success at the ATP tournament in Vienna. Through the 6:2, 2:6, 2:6 against the world number 10. Alex de Minaur from Australia, the 34-year-old failed in the first round in the Austrian capital. Struff is still waiting for a win over a player from the top 10 this year.

Struff and de Minaur had already met at the Masters in Miami and at the French Open this season – each with a better end for the Australian. He will now face the Italian Flavio Cobolli in the round of 16.

The last remaining German in the tournament is co-favorite Alexander Zverev. The world number three from Hamburg, who is in first place in Vienna, will face the winner of the US duel between Alex Michelsen and Marcos Giron in the round of the best 16 on Wednesday evening.
