Wolf Cruises Past Albot
A semifinalist in Atlanta last week, J.J. Wolf made a solid start to his Washington Open campaign as the world no. 45 knocked out Radu Albot in the second round on Tuesday.
Wolf looked very comfortable in the first set, breaking the Moldovan twice and taking the opening set without much fuss. He, however, had a slow start in the second set with Albot breaking early and taking a 0-3 lead. However, Wolf began the turnaround from that point on and he won six games in a row to beat the world no. 97, 6-1, 6-3.
Wolf struck 30 winners in the match, including 11 aces to reach the round of 16. He is now one win from equalling his best in Washington. Last year, he had made it to the quarterfinals, before going down to Andrey Rublev.
The 24-year-old improved to 21-16 this season. In addition to his semifinal finish in Atlanta, he was also a semifinalist in Dallas and made it to the last eight in Houston and Eastbourne. Can he reach a fifth quarterfinal of the year with a win on Thursday?
