Sinner debuts with initial scare having to come from behind against Bonzi

Jannik Sinner had to put on his work overalls to clinch his first victory in the Mutua Madrid Open two years after the last one. Everyone expected an effortless debut for the Italian, facing Benjamin Bonzi, the 104th ATP-ranked player, but the Frenchman dominated the first set with a flawless serve, taking it in a tight tie break (6-7(6)). Alarms went off, but Sinner quickly extinguished them with a convincing 6-1 set, then carried on with momentum to close the match 6-7(6), 6-1, 6-4. After overcoming the initial scare, Sinner advances to the third round, awaiting Elmer Moller.
