LUCKY LOSERS JOIN TOP SEEDS IN QUARTER-FINAL PLAY

 Top seed Stefanos Tsitsipas continues to roll through the Washington draw without having lost a set. He will face his toughest test so far this week when he takes on No. 10 seed and World No. 30 Benoit Paire, who owns a 1-0 record over the Greek. Their last and only meeting came on the hard courts of 2017 Metz, when Paire conceded only six games. But the Frenchman will face a completely different player today, as Tsitsipas sits at the No. 6 ranking and has already claimed two titles this year at Marseille and Estoril. The 20-year-old had a red-hot start to the season, having reached the semi-finals at the Australian Open and the final in Dubai. His summer season began with an appearance in the final at ATP Masters 1000 Madrid and a semi-final run to the ATP Masters 1000 Rome, which propelled him to his career-high ranking at No. 6.

 No. 6 seed Marin Cilic takes the second match on Stadium court against the talented No. 3 seed Daniil Medvedev of . The 6-foot-6 Croat's best result this year came when he reached the quarter-finals of the ATP Masters 1000 Madrid event. After starting the year at No. 7, he has fallen out of the Top 10 and now sits at No. 17. Medvedev, on the other hand, began the year at No. 16 and cracked the Top 10 on 15 July after a season that has included: a title in Sofia, runner-up finishes at Brisbane and ATP 500-level Barcelona, and semi-finals appearances at ATP Masters 1000 Monte Carlo as well as ATP 500-level events in Rotterdam and London.

 Two lucky losers join the top seeds in quarter-final action, including No. 122 Peter Gojowczyk and No. 137 Norbert Gombos. Gojowczyk took big wins over Top 50 players , Alex de Minaur and former champion and No. 8 seed Milos Raonic to earn a shot against No. 13 seed Kyle Edmund. Edmund owns a 2-0 record over the German, both on hard courts. Gombos has also taken full advantage of his opportunity in the Washington draw, taking out No. 66 before dispatching #NextGenATP star Miomir Kecmanovic. Today he faces big-serving No. 52 Nick Kyrgios, who owns a 1-0 head-to-head advantage.

STATS OF THE DAY

o Norbert Gombos is bidding for his 10th career win. This week marks his first time winning a match at an ATP 500 event. o Nick Kyrgios has struck 54 aces in three matches this week. o Stefanos Tsitsipas owns a 36-15 record in 2019, with a 19-7 record on hard courts. o Benoit Paire is 6-37 against Top 10 opponents. o Daniil Medvedev will be the first Top 10 player Marin Cilic has faced in 2019. o Of the remaining quarter-finalists, Marin Cilic owns the most career titles with 18.

CITI OPEN: PREVIEW & 29 JULY MEDIA NOTES

Rock Creek Park Tennis Center | Washington, D.C., USA | 29 July – 4 August 2019 Draw: S-48, D-16 | Prize Money: $1,895,290 | Surface: Hard

ATP Tour Tournament Media ATPTour.com citiopentennis.com Edward La Cava: [email protected] (ATP PR) Twitter: @ATP_Tour @CitiOpen Rosie Crews: [email protected] (Media Desk) Facebook: @ATPTour @CitiOpen TV & Radio: TennisTV.com

10 THINGS TO WATCH IN WASHINGTON

1) Citi Life: The U.S. series moves to Washington, D.C. for the ATP 500-level Citi Open. Three of the newest members of the ATP Rankings Top 10, 20-year-old Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas and 23-year-old Russians Karen Khachanov and Daniil Medvedev, are the top three seeds. They are joined by, among others, former champion Milos Raonic and 2018 finalist Alex de Minaur.

2) Lightning: No. 1 seed Tsitsipas was ranked No. 32 coming into the Citi Open last year, where the Greek started a superb hardcourt run. The Greek raced to the semi-finals in D.C. before falling to eventual champion Alexander Zverev, then followed up by beating four Top 10 players the next week at ATP Masters 1000 . That two-week span propelled him into the Top 15.

3) Rising Russian: Khachanov made his Top 10 debut on 10 June after reaching his first Grand Slam quarter-final at Roland Garros. He became the first Russian in the Top 10 since in 2011. Khachanov seeks his first Citi Open win; he lost to in his 2018 opener.

4) Present Tens: Medvedev joined his compatriot Khachanov in the Top 10 after Wimbledon, marking the first time two Russians were ranked in the Top 10 simultaneously since Youzhny and in October of 2010. Medvedev reached the Citi Open quarter-finals in 2017.

5) Former Champ: No. 8 seed Raonic is the only prior Citi Open champion in the draw this year. The former World No. 3 from Canada defeated his countryman in the 2014 final for what is, to date, his sole title at ATP 500-level or higher. He has an 8-2 win-loss record in D.C.

6) Felix Flying: Another Canadian in the field is No. 9 seed Felix Auger-Aliassime, the only player aged 18 or under currently in the Top 100 of the ATP Rankings. The #NextGenATP star has reached his first three ATP Tour singles finals this season, rocketing from outside the Top 100 at the start of the year to a career-high of No. 21 on 10 June. He turns 19 years old on 8 August.

7) One More Step: American No. 1 John Isner is two weeks removed from winning his first title of the year at the in Newport. Isner had a career breakthrough at Washington in 2007, where he got five straight wins in final-set tiebreaks to reach his first-ever singles final as a 416th- ranked wild card. He also reached the final in 2013 and 2015, but still seeks his first D.C. trophy.

8) Hardcourt Hits: No. 4 seed Kevin Anderson had his own breakthrough at the , making the final after a series of injuries had hindered him over the prior year. From there, the South African spurred himself on to a sublime 2017 hardcourt season, culminating in a first Grand Slam final at the 2017 US Open. He reached his second Grand Slam final last year at Wimbledon.

9) Hometown Heroes: No. 16 seed Frances Tiafoe, from Hyattsville, Md., and Denis Kudla, of Arlington, Va., are back at the Citi Open. Kudla was 0-4 in main-draw matches at the event before racing to the quarter-finals last year. Tiafoe got his first D.C. wins in 2018 to make the third round.

10) Double Up: will pair with his brother Jamie as part of a stellar doubles field in D.C. Four-time Citi Open champions Bob and Mike Bryan and Roland Garros champions and are in the mix, while Wimbledon champions and World No. 1s Juan Sebastian Cabal and face Nick Kyrgios and Tsitsipas in a blockbuster first round.
