Chung Hyeon wins first match at BB&T Atlanta Open

2018-07-26 2

Korean tennis sensation Chung Hyeon has returned to the professional tour with a win in the opening round of the BB&T Atlanta Open.
On Wednesday, the 22-year-old beat Taylor Fritz of the U.S. 2-to-0 in the round of 16.
It was Chung's first match since he was sidelined in early May with ankle problems.
Chung went into a tiebreaker in the second set and earned consecutive points to finish off Fritz in 92 minutes.
No surprise there, perhaps.
Chung is ranked 23rd overall on the ATP World Tour, but in terms of tie-breaking and winning deciding sets, he's ranked number one.
Chung has now reached at least the quarter finals in eight of his ten tournaments this year.
On Friday in the quarterfinals, he'll face Ryan Harrison, who's ranked 53rd.
