Nextgen Star Edmund, Seeds Sousa and Mahut in Action EUROPEAN OPEN: DAY 2 MEDIA NOTES Tuesday, October 18, 2016 Lotto Arena, Antwerp, Belgium | October 17-23, 2016 Draw: S-28, D-16 | Prize Money: €566,525 | Surface: Indoor Hard ATP World Tour Info Tournament Info ATP PR & Marketing www.ATPWorldTour.com www.EuropeanOpen.be Edward La Cava: [email protected] Twitter: @ATPWorldTour Twitter: @EuroTennisOpen Press Room: +32 485 75 28 66 Facebook: @ATPWorldTour Facebook: @EuropeanTennisOpen #NEXTGEN STAR EDMUND, SEEDS SOUSA AND MAHUT IN ACTION DAY 2 PREVIEW: As Andy Murray makes a run at World No. 1, his 21-year-old countryman Kyle Edmund continues to quickly climb the Emirates ATP Rankings. Edmund has achieved a new career-high ranking nine times this season, including when he rose to No. 43 on Monday. The #NextGen star has enjoyed a breakthrough year after ending 2015 at No. 102. Edmund reached his first three quarter-finals at Doha, London/Queen’s Club and Shanghai, also beating Richard Gasquet and John Isner en route to the fourth round at the US Open. While Edmund meets Illya Marchenko Tuesday on Court 1, No. 6 seed Joao Sousa and No. 7 seed Nicolas Mahut play first-round matches on Centre Court. Sousa faces qualifier Marius Copil and Mahut takes on Diego Schwartzman. Both Mahut and Schwartzman won ATP World Tour singles titles earlier this season -- Mahut on the grass courts of ’s-Hertogenbosch and Schwartzman on the clay courts of Istanbul. Wild card Tommy Robredo caps the singles action against Florian Mayer. The 484th-ranked Robredo is playing his second ATP World Tour event since undergoing right elbow surgery in April. Mayer was in Robredo’s shoes earlier this season, rebuilding his ranking following an adductor tear by winning the ATP World Tour 500 title at Halle. Yesterday’s media notes incorrectly stated that David Goffin would rise to No. 9 in the Emirates ATP Race to London by winning the European Open championship. Goffin must reach at least the semi-finals this week to add points to his race total. He would trail No. 9 Tomas Berdych by 30 race points if he captures the title on Sunday.

Teen Sensation and 2009 US Open Quarterfinalist Melanie Oudin teams up with an All-Star cast for the second edition of Champions for Charity. The event will take place on Sunday, December 6, 2009 (3PM) at Hartman Arena located at 8151 N. Hartman Arena Dr., Park City, KS. Oudin will be joined by the world’s #1 ranked Doubles team of Bob and Mike Bryan along with 6’9’ John Isner, and former Olympic Silver Medalist Mardy Fish, both ranked in the top 50 of the world singles rankings.
