Italy’s Matteo Berrettini returns the ball during the ATP tour final tennis match against Britain’s Andy Murray in Stuttgart, southern Germany, on Sunday, June 12, 2022 (June 13 in Manila). AFP PHOTOSTUTTGART: Matteo Berrettini made a winning return to tennis on Sunday (Monday in Manila) when he defeated an injury-hit Andy Murray 6-4, 5-7, 6-3 to win the Stuttgart grass court title. Berrettini, who last played in March and then underwent hand surgery, won his ninth Stuttgart match without a loss as he backed up his 2019 debut trophy on the grass of the Weissenhof Club. "This is so unbelievable," 10th-ranked Berrettini said after claiming his first title since winning Queen's Club last June. Berrettini gave the 68th-ranked Murray full credit for a top effort.
