Beginning the day's matches are wild card and No. 2 seed Roberto Bautista Agut, who takes on Britain's Aljaz Bedene. The No. 77 Bedene leads their head-to-head 2-1, but the last contest this season in Miami went to the World No. 17 Bautista Agut. Both men are looking to match their best result here at Winston-Salem. Following on Center Court is No. 6 seed Sam Querrey, who has reached the semi-finals here in three out of four attempts. He takes on Guillermo Garcia-Lopez, who has also had success here in the past, reaching the quarter-finals in 2014. The two have met on the courts of Wake Forest twice in their career history, in the second round in 2013 and in the quarter-finals in 2014. Both matches fell in Querrey's favor, though Garcia-Lopez pushed the American to three sets in his quarter-final loss.

    Média alerte Steve Darcis et David Ferrer éliminés en huitièmes de finale de l’European Open David Goffin est entré sur le court central Anvers, 20 octobre 2016 – Schwartzman, Struff, Copil et Edmund se sont qualifiés aujourd’hui pour les quarts de finale de l’European Open. Notre compatriote Steve Darcis n’a pas pu s’imposer sur le court central du Lotto Arena face au Roumain Marius Copil. C’est à la suite d’un match intense que David Ferrer a dû s’incliner face à Kyle Edmund (6- 1, 3-6, 7-6(3)). David Goffin, le dernier belge encore en lice joue actuellement son premier match du tournoi sur le court central face Florian Mayer. Le premier match du jour opposait le jeune (18 ans) Taylor Fritz (ATP-70) à l’Argentin Schwartzman (ATP-77). L’Américain, qui a éliminé au premier tour le Belge Joris De Loore, n’a pas pu s’imposer aujourd’hui (6-4, 6-4). Ce fut ensuite au tour de l’Allemand Jan-Lennard Struff (ATP-98) d’éliminer au second tour la tête de série numéro cinq, le Français Gilles Simon (ATP-25), également sur un double 6-4. Il faut croire que la Belgique réussit à l’Allemand puisqu’il a remporté l’Ethias Trophy de Mons il y a deux semaines et inscrit aujourd’hui sa septième victoire sur notre sol. Le début de soirée fut rythmé par des simples très attendus, le premier opposant Steve Darcis à Marius Copil et qui s’est soldé par une victoire du Roumain (7-6(3), 6-2).

Both will aim to use home advantage to have a good run here this year – Monfils will look for a repeat of his 2008 performance when he reached the semifinals, while Pouille will hope to emulate the form he displayed in reaching the last 4 at the Australian Open in January to impress the home fans in Paris. • Monte Carlo champion Fabio Fognini takes on fellow Italian Andreas Seppi in the first match on Court Simonne Mathieu today. It will be the 8th all-Italian meeting at Roland Garros in the Open Era and the 16th all-Italian clash at the Grand Slams in the Open Era. The pair are tied at 4 wins apiece in their previous Tour-level match-ups, but Seppi has not beaten his compatriot and Davis Cup teammate since 2010 and will have to put in an inspired performance if he is to defeat to the No.

  • Monfils Seeks Elusive Title, History on Line for Rublev
    QATAR EXXONMOBIL OPEN: DAY 6 MEDIA NOTES Saturday, 6 January 2018 Khalifa International Tennis and Squash Complex | Doha, Qatar | 1-6 January 2018 Draw: S-32, D-16 | Prize Money: $1,286,675 | Surface: Outdoor Hard ATP World Tour Info Tournament Info ATP PR & Marketing ATPWorldTour.com QatarTennis.org Martin Dagahs: [email protected] Twitter: @ATPWorldTour @QatarTennis Press Room: +974 44409621 Facebook: @ATPWorldTour @QatarTennis TV & Radio: TennisTV.com MONFILS SEEKS ELUSIVE TITLE, HISTORY ON LINE FOR RUBLEV Gael Monfils is 6-20 in ATP World Tour finals and 0-3 with the Qatar ExxonMobil Open title on the line. On Saturday against Andrey Rublev, he can start anew with a championship to begin 2018. The Frenchman arrived as a wild card following a four-month hiatus due to a right knee injury. Monfils has found success in familiar territory, falling to then-No. 1 Roger Federer (2006), then-No. 6 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (2012) and then-No. 1 Rafael Nadal (2014) in his previous Doha finals. Monfils is one of three wild cards to reach the final in Doha’s 26-year tournament history, joining Younes El Aynaoui in 1996 and Nicolas Escude in 2004. Escude, also from France, is the only wild card to win the Doha title. Monfils’ first final in Doha came as a 19-year-old, but his 20-year-old opponent on Saturday is bidding to become the youngest Qatar ExxonMobil Open champion ever. Rublev is through to the final despite hitting a total of 33 double faults in his four victories this week. INFOSYS ATP SCORES & STATS Qatar ExxonMobil Open [WC] Gael
