Robert Lindstedt interviews ATP stars in Antalya
The Swede chatted to Dominic Thiem, Joao Sousa and Marsel Ilhan.
Sweden's Robert Lindstedt played reporter for a day at the Antalya player party, chatting amicably with Dominic Thiem, Joao Sousa and Marsel Ilhan. The ATP 250 event on grass is in it's first year, and couldn't be any more opposite to the rainy, dreary conditions in Eastbourne.
Unfortunately for Thiem, he was bounced out of the first round by India's Ramkumar Ramanathan, and won't get any of that grass match practice he was hoping for ahead of Wimbledon.
Sousa also crumbled in his opening round, while Ilhan, a local wild card entry, won his first match (by way of retirement) before losing 7-6 in the third set in the second round.
The interviewer however, is still alive. Lindstedt is the top seed in doubles with Aisam-Ul-Haq Qureshi and has reached the semifinals.
