Tough luck for Nick Kyrgios that crashes out in the Valencia opener at the hands of world no. 170 Daniel Brands.
After losing the opener, Nick looked set to a solid comeback after winning the 2nd set 6-2. Eventually the Australian couldn’t break Brands in the 3rd set to lose the match at the final breaker. The final result was 6-3 2-6 7-6 (3). Match Stats.
Brands: The key was the important points
Daniel commented “I think the key today was to stay calm and just to focus on the important points. I think I played some good points today and a really good match”
Brands will face next home favourite David Ferrer. Interesting enough head to head is 1-0 for Brands.
NOT GREAT THIS TIME |
