Gaston Falls in the First Round of the Madrid Masters 1000
After two qualifying wins against Hanfmann and Nardi, Hugo Gaston's run in Madrid comes to an end. Facing Ofner, the Frenchman lost with a score of 6-4, 6-4 in 1 hour and 18 minutes of play. This marks his thirteenth defeat of the season.
With 25 unforced errors and no break points converted out of five, the player from Toulouse exits the Spanish capital in the first round. He was also coming off an early elimination in the qualifying rounds of the Barcelona tournament.
On the other hand, Ofner advances to the second round of a Masters 1000 for the first time this season. The Austrian will face Nakashima next.
