00:00...drawer as a lucky loser, having lost to Remy Bertola,
00:04the Swiss player in the second round of qualifying.
00:07He had already beaten Alexander Shevchenko, winning that title in Stockholm.
00:12He's been shown some decent form for a few months now.
00:16Had a good run in Tokyo as well at the 500 tournament there.
00:302 top 20 wins, to his name, over the course of his career,
00:49Alex Dimonor in Miami.
00:51Oh, yeah, it's beautifully done from Rude.
01:0615-0.
01:15I think many people had Kasparu down as the pretty heavy favourite coming into this match.
01:21Yeah, I think he actually had very little option there, Alice, but to play the forward tweener.
01:47Yeah, another good venture forward from Alice.
01:51As Lucy mentioned, Alice has already had to come through a final set tie-breaking qualifying, though.
02:03And that was an excellent touch from Rude.
02:06An immediate mini-break to start us off in the breaker.
02:09Oh, that is special from Kasparu.
02:20How about that?
02:22That's a good response from Alice.
02:35That previous point would have been a bit of a heartbreaker for him.
02:38So, Kasparu, continuing where he left off in Stockholm last week,
02:52is off and running here in Basel.
02:54Thank you.
02:59Cheers.
03:08Goodbye.
