Matteo Arnaldi Player Overview
Arnaldi has already stunned everyone by knocking out Novak Djokovic in the second round of the tournament, securing a 2-0 victory in just an hour and a half. So far in Madrid, the Italian has only lost once, to Borna Ćorić at the start of his first match. In the round of 32, Arnaldi swiftly dispatched Džumhur in an hour and a half. However, it's worth noting that the win over Djokovic might not be as significant as it seems, given that Novak is gradually declining due to age and likely conserving energy for Roland Garros. Therefore, Francis Tiafoe will be Arnaldi's first truly serious opponent.
