At the Stuttgart Open, Matteo Berrettini defeated Andy Murray in three sets to earn his first title of the 2022 season.
Both finalists enjoyed a fantastic tournament, with Andy Murray gaining confidence on the grass and Matteo Berrettini making a fairytale recovery after an injury. However, there could only be one champion in the 2022 Stuttgart Open, as the players battled for more than 2 hours and 30 minutes to select the winner. After his triumph, Berrettini who also kept his place in the Top 10 of the ATP Rankings, said:
“It is unbelievable. It was obviously a goal [to win the title], but I thought it would be really, really tough,” Berrettini said. “I don’t even think I played my best tennis, but that is why I am even more proud of myself. Mentally I was really tough."
"I did an unbelievable job to be there. I fought hard and this means a lot. My body is hurting a little bit. It had been three matches without matches and today was almost three hours, so I am feeling it."
