Reilly Opelka is getting more and more confidence after reaching the semifinal in Atlanta.
The 18 years old is currently ranked world no.1 364, but he is already playing like a top50. Reilly wins an epic in the Cincinnati opener against Chardy 3-6 7-5 7-6 (11). The key moment of the match was obviously the 3rd set breaker when Reilly saved two match point. The most impressive move was when he saved the first match point with an outstanding backhand down the line.
Reilly will now play Tsonga in the 2nd round. The Frenchman needs to be careful.
