The Arica native failed to beat world No. 172 Frenchman Titouan Droguet and had no chance of making the main draw at the final Grand Slam of the season.
Christian Garin adds another disappointment in a 2023 marked by irregularities. the ariqueno, second national racket and which occupies the 91st position in the ATP ranking failed to master the Frenchman Titouan Droguet, 172nd in the planetary ranking, and said goodbye to him in his qualifying debut at the US Open, the last Grand Slam of the season .
The Tank thus achieves a disastrous passage through the four main tournaments of the season. After his unsuccessful stint in the North American competition, Australian Open first-round elimination adds up . To make matters worse, he did not play at Roland-Garros or Wimbledon.
Bitterness
The mutual ruptures of the beginning marked that the engagement was going to be unpredictable. However, Luck ended up on the side of the European who, in the seventh game, broke the Chilean’s serve again. which was enough to seal the advantage with which he closed the first set, 6-4.
The second was sadder: Garin dropped his first service game and collided with a solid opponent to reaffirm that break and not allow any concessions in the rest of the quarter. . Another break, still in the seventh game, determined that the duel entered the home stretch. The French won 6-2 .
In this way, the only national whose presence is guaranteed, so far, in the last major of the season is Nicholas Jarry. That day, Alejandro Tabilo takes on Australian John Millman and Tomás Barrios with local Emilio Nava.
Garin, meanwhile, will have to turn the page and regain their motivation for the Davis Cup, in which Chile return to the World Group to face Sweden, Italy and Canada, with whom they share Group A. . The first two of the lot will enter the final phase of the Saladier d’Argent competition, which will take place in November.
