There is a Viking of unbreakable faith, named Alejandro Davidovich, who manages to contain the wave and ends up being crowned in Shanghai, where a Spaniard had never triumphed. Merit, a lot of merit for the Andalusian, another of those talents who emerged very quickly - he was only 18 years old when he won Wimbledon as a junior - and who has had a hard time processing the curvature of his profession. Tennis and the mind, a mystery. So lonely, so difficult. So complex. This finale of moments is very deceptive in which a truck has suddenly passed over him and then, hence those mysteries, it offers a sudden twist in the script and what seemed like it is not. Volante: 1-6, 7-6(5) and 6-4, in 2h 28m. Rafa Jódar finishes cramped and limping, defeated, and the Andalusian, now owner of a Masters 1000, is deservedly crowned.
