Sebastian Korda Wins All-US Duel to Book Parma Final vs Marco Cecchinato

News 18  

Sebastian Korda beat sixth-seeded Tommy Paul in an all-American semifinal at the Emilia-Romagna Open on Friday to reach his first ATP final. The 63rd-ranked Korda won 6-3, 6-3 in 82 minutes to book a spot against Italian wild card Marco Cecchinato. The 104th-ranked Cecchinato also had to save a set point on his serve at 5-3 down in the opener, then broke back and eventually took the set to the tiebreak. “At the beginning I didn’t have good sensations but then I improved.” The third set finished 6-1 but the scoreboard is certainly a liar, it was a hard battle right to the end.” Cecchinato is going for his fourth career ATP singles title, all on clay, and first since 2019.
