Peterson, 96th in the world rankings, clearly lost to the 102nd-ranked American. The Swede lost the first set by 3-6 despite a 3-0 lead in the game.
At a disadvantage of 1-5 in the second set on the gravel in Båstad, the Swede played a little.
Despite the support of the home crowd, the Swede eventually lost other sets as well, with the numbers 2-6.
– I had many chances in the first set that I myself did not take, I did not take advantage of that chance. Then it ran away, but there are small margins, says Peterson in Cmore.
The result means that Davis is ready for the semifinals. Peterson was the Swede who went furthest in singles in Båstad. However, Peterson is still in the doubles tournament.
