Spanish Trio, German Teen Return for Second Round GERMAN TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIPS 2016: DAY 4 MEDIA NOTES Thursday, July 14, 2016 Rothenbaum Tennis Arena, Hamburg, Germany | July 11-17, 2016 Draw: S-32, D-16 | Prize Money: €1,388,830 | Surface: Clay ATP World Tour Info Tournament Info ATP PR & Marketing www.ATPWorldTour.com www.German-Open-Hamburg.de Martin Dagahs: [email protected] Twitter: @ATPWorldTour Twitter: @Am_Rothenbaum Fabienne Benoit: [email protected] Facebook: @ATPWorldTour Facebook: @TennisAmRothenbaum Press Room: +49 40 524724141 SPANISH TRIO, GERMAN TEEN RETURN FOR SECOND ROUND DAY 4 PREVIEW: With the two top-ranked players in the bottom half of the draw beaten in the first round of the German Tennis Championships, opportunity knocks for the eight hopefuls eyeing the quarter-finals in Hamburg. Spaniards Daniel Gimeno-Traver and Inigo Cervantes – who beat No. 2 seed Benoit Paire and No. 4 seed Alexander Zverev respectively – join No. 8 seed Guillermo Garcia-Lopez in the second round. World No. 82 Cervantes opens Thursday’s Centre Court action against world No. 83 Stephane Robert, his first ATP World Tour encounter with the Frenchman. Garcia-Lopez will then face Grega Zemlja, back to winning ways on the ATP World Tour for the first time in over three years in the first round after a lengthy battle with mononucleosis that all but wiped out the Slovenian’s 2014 season. Back-to-back Challenger finals in April suggest that the 29- year-old is working his way back to the form that saw him crack the Top 50 in 2013. Third up on Centre Court, No. 7 seed Martin Klizan will take on Germany’s top-ranking junior Louis Wessels, who stunned Canadian qualifier Steven Diez on his ATP World Tour debut in the first round. The 17-year-old wild card, yet to earn an ATP ranking, will again be a heavy underdog against the reigning Rotterdam champion. In the last of the day’s singles matches, Gimeno-Traver meets Russia’s Daniil Medvedev for the second time this season after losing to the 20-year-old at the Bordeaux Challenger in May. Currently at a career-best No. 215 in the Emirates ATP rankings this week, Medvedev will be looking for a repeat win to seal his place in the Top 200 for the first time on Monday.

    Western & Southern Open Partners Embrace Unique 2020 Tournament CINCINNATI (Aug. 6, 2020) – Numerous Western & Southern Open partners will remain involved with the tournament in 2020 during it’s one-year staging at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York. Due to circumstances brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Western & Southern Open will be held Aug. 20-28 at the same venue that will host the US Open beginning Aug. 31. The ATP Masters 1000 and WTA Premier 5 Western & Southern Open will be the first combined tournament hosting players from both circuits at a single venue since the tours suspended play in early March. While the venue will be different this year, a number of facets of the tournament will remain the same, starting with the name. Cincinnati-based Western & Southern Financial Group returns as title sponsor for a 19th year, marking the longest-running active naming rights relationship with a North American tennis tournament. The traditional Western & Southern backwall branding will be just one of the familiar aspects of the on-court presentation this year, particularly on the NTC’s Grandstand which will serve as the primary show court. As with 2019, a Porsche serve speed display and Rolex clock will be featured on the court. Player benches will once again be furnished by Mobisport and will be placed behind Cintas mats near drink coolers provided by BODYARMOR. Emirates will have net signage during the ATP Tour matches. LED screens will rotate sponsor signage on the side walls of the Grandstand while Motorola will be featured on LED boards on the side of the umpire’s chair.

    News Release 26 November 2018 DJOKOVIC, NADAL, FEDERER IN TOP 3 YEAR-END ATP RANKINGS FOR RECORD 7TH TIME, FIRST TIME SINCE 2014 PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FLORIDA — The ATP World Tour today published the 2018 year-end ATP Rankings on ATPWorldTour.com after an exciting season of milestones and breakthroughs. The trio of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer finished in the Top 3 ATP Rankings for the seventh time (2007-11, 2014, 2018), the first since 2014. All three players ranked No. 1 at one stage during the year and it was the first time all three ranked No. 1 during the same season. There were five changes in the year-end Top 10 from the previous season for the second year in a row, including first-timers No. 6 Kevin Anderson and No. 10 John Isner, both former U.S. collegiate standouts. The last time at least two former college players finished in the Top 10 was in 1989 when John McEnroe, Brad Gilbert and Jay Berger accomplished the feat. Other players returning to the Top 10 were World No. 1 Novak Djokovic, who was No. 12 at the end of 2017, No. 5 Juan Martin del Potro, who equaled his year- end best from 2013, the last time he was in the Top 10, and No. 9 Kei Nishikori, who jumped from No. 22 last year. For the first time in ATP Rankings history (since 1973), players from five different regions of the world were represented in the Top 10. Six players from Europe and one each from Africa, Asia, North and South America comprised the Top 10.
