MELBOURNE - World number 100 Tennys Sandgren reached the quarter-finals of the Australian Open for the second time in three years with a 7-6 7-5 6-7 6-4 victory over combustible Italian Fabio Fognini on Sunday.
Fognini had battled through two five-set matches at the tournament, including coming from two sets down in the opening round, and another looked on the cards when he won the third set on the tiebreak. “That was fun right?” Sandgren said. “Playing him is just a war you know, he’s so good. I was expecting a fight and I got it.”
Fognini did not want to discuss the incidents after the match and Sandgren said he was unclear what had happened.“Sometimes I can mouth off a little bit as far as speaking my mind as a way to vent. I was getting a little frustrated as to why we weren’t playing yet.”
