ITF: Weis in the round of 16 – Meliss travels to the USA

Six South Tyroleans are in action on the ITF tour this week. Weis plays again in Tabarka. It was only on Saturday that the 22-year-old from Bolzano reached the doubles final in Tunisia with the Argentinian Nicolas Alberto Arreche, where they had to admit defeat to the Dutch Maikel Borg/Max Houkes in the super tiebreak.

On Tuesday, Weis, who is seeded number 4 in Tabarka, won the singles opener against the Indian Anirudh Chandrasekar 6:3, 7:5. In the round of 700, the South Tyrolean will face compatriot Luca Tomasetto (ITF 1), whom he defeated last week in Tabarka in round XNUMX and last year in St. Christina.

Val Gardena's Patric Prinoth was narrowly defeated by Sweden's Marius Ruzgas 7:6(1), 0:6, 7:10 at the start of the qualification on Monday.

Fellin retired in Morocco In the late afternoon, Manfred Fellin was eliminated from the $15.000 tournament in Casablanca. The Bressanone lost at the start against host Amine Ahouda in three sets 6:4, 4:6, 4:6. But Fellin's tournament isn't over yet, as he plays doubles with compatriot Giovanni Rizzuti against the Argentine duo Franco Feitt/Guido Ivan Justo.

On Wednesday, the two people from Völs, Horst Rieder and Georg Winkler, will be in action in Casablanca. Rieder successfully made it through qualification at the weekend, where he was able to eliminate host Mustapha Benmira 1:6, 0:6 in round 0 and then the Argentinian Franco Feitt 6:4, 6:4. However, Rieder was unlucky: Irishman Simon Carr (ITF 1), seeded number 3, is waiting in round 206 tomorrow, Wednesday. A difficult task also awaits Winkler: the player from TC Rungg will face the number 4 in the tournament, the Moroccan Adam Moundir (ITF 215).
