Andersonis approaching the final in really good form. Sure, he had some setbacks at the tournament in Newport, but he managed to reach the final anyway. In the first two rounds, Kevin won in straight sets, first beating Ilya Marchenko (7-6, 6-3), and then defeated Sebastian Ofner (7-5, 7-6). The quarterfinal match was more challenging for Kevin: he needed three sets to beat Jack Sock (6-7, 6-2, 6-4), and the semifinal was also quite difficult. But in the end, Anderson outplayed Alexander Bublik with a score of 4-6, 7-6, 7-5.
