Spain, Argentina register wins as ATP Cup opens new season

Spain’s Roberto Bautista Agut

Spain and Argentina both won their ATP Cup ties with some ease as men’s professional tennis returned for the 2022 season in the lucrative team tournament at Sydney’s Olympic Park on Saturday.


Spain’s Roberto Bautista Agut and Pablo Carreno Busta made light of the absence of Rafael Nadal with contrasting victories over Chileans Cristian Garin and Alejandro Tabilo. Carreno Busta overcame lefthander Tabilo 6-4, 7-6 (4) in the first match of the year on Ken Rosewall Arena. Bautista Agut then steamrollered World No. 17 Garin 6-0, 6-3 to give the Spaniards an unassailable lead in the Group A tie ahead of the doubles rubber.


Federico Delbonis earlier made light work of Aleksandre Metreveli with a 6-1, 6-2 win at the Sydney Super Dome to give Argentina a 1-0 lead in their Group D tie against Georgia. Diego Schwartzman then trounced Nikoloz Basilashvili by the same score before Maximo Gonzalez and Andres Molteni beat Zura Tkemaladze and Saba Purtseladze, again 6-1, 6-2, in the doubles.
