Portugal’s Joao Sousa worked his way back from a fast start by wild card Hyeon Chung on Wednesday to record a 1-6, 6-3, 6-4 victory for a place in the Chengdu Open second round. Last week's St. Petersburg Open semi-finalist will face second-seeded Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime. Chung, the 2017 Next Gen ATP Finals champion, was playing only his second tour-level event since February due to a back injury.
Kazakhstan’s Alexander Bublik struck 25 aces and won 83 per cent of his first-service points to grind past sixth-seeded American Taylor Fritz, this year’s Nature Valley International champion, 4-6, 7-5, 7-5 in one hour and 46 minutes. He will now challenge Australia’s Jordan Thompson, who led Vasek Pospisil of Canada 4-1 in the deciding set before a tense finale for a 6-3, 3-6, 7-5 win in two hours and 29 minutes.
