Griekspoor muzzled by Sinner: I only made three unforced errors and I still lost it.

Tallon Griekspoor once again lost out to Jannik Sinner in the Davis Cup final in Malaga on Sunday. Defeated for the 6th time in 6 duels, the Dutch No. 1 gave it his all, even giving Sinner doubts in the first set.

Unfortunately for him, the world's No. 1 was stronger in the end, winning in two sets (7-6, 6-2) to secure the title for his nation. In a statement relayed by Punto de Break, Griekspoor reflected on this latest setback, appearing almost disgusted: "I had no choice but to play at a high level.

This Jannik with this level and confidence is incredibly difficult to beat. I tried to give it my best shot and I think I was up to the task in the first set and at the start of the second.

I only committed three unforced errors in the first set and still lost it."

That could be for a number of reasons. Like your strategy to control the play didn't prevent Sinner to be in position to hit winners. Or your defense wasn't good enough to prevent Sinner from hitting winners.
