Etcheverry Struff

The crowd was electrified by the power of Tomás Martín Etcheverry's serves. In a Davis Cup quarterfinal against Germany, the Argentine suddenly entered an almost unreal zone: 7 consecutive aces, struck like cannon shots, leaving Jan-Lennard Struff motionless.

At 5-6, 0-15 in the second set, Etcheverry first strung together 4 consecutive aces to push his opponent to a tie-break. Before sending 3 more in a row to level at 3-3. An exceptional performance that allowed him to win the decisive game and thus the match (7-6(3), 7-6(7)).

To measure the feat, we must recall the record: Sam Querrey and his 10 consecutive aces, set in 2007 in the Indianapolis quarterfinals against James Blake (7-6(6), 6-7(4), 7-6(4)). A record that almost no one has threatened since. Well, on Thursday, Etcheverry came dangerously close.

Over the entire match, Etcheverry finished with 23 aces, one of his highest totals in Davis Cup, proof of a rarely reached level of confidence.

But while this victory allowed his team to take the lead in this confrontation, it could not prevent the defeat (1-2) after the decisive doubles, won 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 by the pair Krawietz-Pütz.
