These concerns were proven unfounded, as Fornali easily won the match in around 1 hour 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Magheretto had benefited in previous matches from his famously strong serves, which often led to aces, but Forlani was able to block his serves with his own unusually strong drives. It was clear early on that Magheretto was struggling to adjust to a more effective\u00a0strategy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Born from\u00a0a Rossen family, Forlani grew up in Bertuccia and benefited from a lifelong training in clay courts, whereas Magheretto was born in\u00a0Tavoletro but lived all his childhood in Chiavere. Still, Magheretto was gracious in his defeat and, following tradition, was the one who presented Forlani with his victory trophy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">They are likely to meet\u00a0in early February for the Chiavere Open.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Suderia.\u00a0Mario Forlani defeated\u00a0longtime rival Carlo Magheretto 6-3 6-3 this morning\u00a0and went on to win the Bertuccia Open for the second<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":421,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[157,36,7],"tags":[38,40,41,14,39,37],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/420"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=420"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/420\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":426,"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/420\/revisions\/426"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/421"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=420"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=420"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/selene.online\/herald\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=420"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
