ATP BARCELONA - 1/8th FINAL.
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (FRA/N.3) beat Nicolas Almagro (ESP/N.15) 5-7, 6-1, 6-4
After the Australian Open, Marseille and Miami is the fourth time this season as the No.1 French moved up to this point. He will meet Juan Carlos Ferrero not, who was narrowly defeated in Monte Carlo, but the Dutchman Thiemo de Bakker, who surprised the Spaniard 7-6 (7 / 2), 3-6, 7-6 ( 7 / 4). On paper, Manceau has clearly won the exchange and will start favorite against De Bakker, 67th in the world that has lost their only meeting, a barrage of Davis Cup last September, already on clay.
However, the clay begins to tame Tsonga better and better and it showed on his fourth match of the season and 23rd of his career only on the surface. Apart from the end of the first set, he clearly dominated Almagro which is becoming a nightmare personified as just defeated for the third time this season, while two players had never met before this winter.
Again, the last French competing in the four initially in Catalonia, Tsonga, N.10 world, has served and aligned some pretty forehand missiles but has also released several of his racket felt well damped. A complete range to contribute to spoil the start to the day of Spanish tennis, who had placed eight of his own in the knockout stages but had already lost four in the morning with the nap, and more eliminations Guillermo Garcia-Lopez and Ivan Navarro .
