Defending Champion Mahut Plays Double-Header RICOH OPEN: DAY 3 MEDIA NOTES Wednesday, June 8, 2016 Autotron Rosmalen, 's-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands | June 6-12, 2016 Draw: S-28, D-16 | Prize Money: €566,525 | Surface: Grass ATP Info Tournament Info ATP PR & Marketing www.ATPWorldTour.com www.ricoh-open.nl Mark Epps: [email protected] @ATPWorldTour @RicohOpen Press Room: +31 653 19 79 00 facebook.com/ATPWorldTour facebook.com/RicohOpen DEFENDING CHAMPION MAHUT PLAYS DOUBLE-HEADER DAY 3 PREVIEW: Reigning singles champion and World No. 1 doubles player Nicolas Mahut plays a pair of matches on Court 1 at the Ricoh Open on Wednesday. Mahut begins his busy day at 11 am against countryman Paul Henri-Mathieu. The Frenchmen were born nine days apart in 1982 and live in Boulogne-Billancourt. But despite their proximity in age and residence, Mahut and Mathieu have only met twice on the ATP World Tour. The older Mathieu leads 2-0 in their FedEx ATP Head 2 Head rivalry. Mahut is enjoying a milestone week in ’s-Hertogenbosch. The two-time champion began his title defense with a win over qualifier Lukas Lacko on Monday, the same day that he became the second World No. 1 from France in doubles or singles. Mahut joined Hall-of-Famer Yannick Noah, who spent 19 weeks atop the Emirates ATP Doubles Rankings during the 1986 and 1987 seasons. Because his regular partner Pierre-Hugues Herbert is playing singles in Stuttgart this week, Mahut is teaming with World No. 10 Rohan Bopanna for the first time. They make their debut Wednesday in the third match on Court 1. On Centre Court, No. 2 seed Bernard Tomic meets Aljaz Bedene not before 12:30 pm. Tomic’s breakthrough came on the grass courts of Wimbledon in 2011. Ranked 158th at the time, the 18-year-old Tomic qualified and upset No. 5 Robin Soderling before falling to eventual champion Novak Djokovic in a four-set quarter-final. The last match pits Americans Steve Johnson and Stefan Kozlov, who on Monday earned his career-high ranking of No. 196 and first ATP win over qualifier Yoshihito Nishioka. At 18 years, 128 days old, Kozlov is the youngest player in the Top 200 of the Emirates ATP Rankings.

Murray won both his singles and teamed with his brother John to edge out Groth and Hewitt in five sets in the crucial doubles rubber. Murray received fantastic support from the 8000 strong crowd which was also appreciative of Lleyton Hewitt playing in what was to be his final Davis Cup match. The Australian team showed great fighting spirit and camaraderie and, with the recall of Kyrgios, will be a force to be reckoned with in Davis Cup in the next few years. It is anticipated that Hewitt will take over from Masur as Captain in 2016. Page !1 Around the traps…… Put up your hand if someone has taken your seat!

The conference had a tennis-specific set up as well as innovative tennis medicine content with keynote presentations, break out sessions, and on-court sessions. Thanks to Connor Sport Court, there were 2 court surfaces that were laid down inside the Life University gymnasium for very real on court demonstrations. Some of the participants (and even speakers) found some time to even play out some points and warm up with the foam balls and rackets provided! This conference was also supported by Ortho Atlanta, a local orthopae- dic group that serves as the official medical providers for the Atlanta ATP Championships as well as the Australian Open Wildcard tournament. The International Tennis Performance Association (ITPA), was an- other key contributor, and they also helped to arrange an on court stroke technique evaluation for coaches in conjunction with Georgia Professional Tennis Association (GPTA), and STMS one day prior to the main STMS-USTA conference. Dr. Ben Kibler, Dr. Mark Kovacs, and myself provided an enthusiastic audience of many local tennis professionals, coaches, and some medical providers some specific modifications of strokes for junior elite players as well as adult players.
