POSPISIL THROUGH TO THE SECOND ROUND IN NEW YORK / POSPISIL AU DEUXIÈME TOUR À NEW YORK  |

Montréal, August 31, 2011 – At the US Open this afternoon, Vasek Pospisil, the last Canadian standing in the singles draw of the US Open, won his first round match. While his compatriots all fell in the opening round, the 20-year-old Vancouverite was out to turn things around for Canada.

In his very first Grand Slam appearance, Pospisil has not shown any signs of inexperience. He won three qualifying matches before locking horns today with Lukas Rosol of the Czech Republic, who is currently ranked 65th in the world. Taking the lead early on, Pospisil never let his opponent back in the match. With 13 aces and 13 winners, the Canadian claimed victory in three sets of 6-1, 6-2 and 6-1 in 82 minutes. Today’s match is the second big win for Pospisil this summer. He beat world no.24 Juan Ignacio Chela of Argentina at the Rogers Cup presented by National Bank just a few weeks ago.

In the second round, Pospisil will go head-to-head with the winner of the match between Feliciano Lopez of Spain and Tatsuma Ito of Japan.

Montréal, le 31 août 2011 – Vasek Pospisil (Vancouver, BC), dernier Canadien en lice dans l’épreuve du simple des Internationaux des États-Unis, jouait aujourd’hui son match de premier tour. Alors que tous ses compatriotes avaient baissé pavillon dès le tour initial, l’athlète de 20 ans tentait d’améliorer le sort du Canada.

Bien que Pospisil en soit à une première expérience en tournoi du Grand Chelem, il ne démontre aucun signe d’inexpérience jusqu’à présent. En effet, il a d’abord remporté trois matchs de qualification avant de vaincre aujourd’hui le Tchèque Lukas Rosol, 65e joueur mondial. Pospisil a rapidement pris les devants et n’a jamais laissé son adversaire revenir dans la partie. Ses 13 aces et 13 coups gagnants l’ont mené vers une victoire en trois manches de 6-1, 6-2 et 6-1, en 82 minutes. Il s’agit d’une deuxième importante victoire pour lui en peu de temps puisqu’il avait battu le 24e joueur mondial, Juan Ignacio Chela, à la Coupe Rogers présentée par Banque Nationale, à Montréal, il y a quelques semaines.

Au prochain tour, Pospisil rencontrera le vainqueur du match opposant l’Espagnol Feliciano Lopez et le Japonais Tatsuma Ito.
