 In sports, American Taylor Freese saved a match point before clawing his way back to beat Japan's Yoshihito Nishioca 6-7-7-6 on Monday, October 24, as Andrei Rublev beat Argentine Diego 6-4-6-1 as part of the first round of matches at Vienna's Bank Open ATP 500 tournament. Nishioca was a point away from a straight set victory but saw himself lose the second set before losing to a Freese match point an hour later and smashing his racket in rage at letting the match slip away in dramatic fashion. Fourth seed Freese now plays the winner of Denise Shapovalov and Zurich Rodionov. Meanwhile, the third seeded Russian comfortably beat his Argentine opponent and set up a showdown against the winner of Grigo Dimitrov and Thiago Montero.
