Karlovic, Monfils Battle for Atp World Tour 500 Title on the Line CITI OPEN: DAY 7 MEDIA NOTES Sunday, July 24, 2016 Rock Creek Park Tennis Center, Washington, DC, USA | July 18-24, 2016 Draw: S-48, D-16 | Prize Money: $1,629,475 | Surface: Outdoor Hard ATP World Tour Info Tournament Info ATP PR & Marketing www.ATPWorldTour.com www.citiopentennis.com Edward La Cava: [email protected] Twitter: @ATPWorldTour Twitter: @CitiOpen Joshua Rey: [email protected] Facebook: @ATPWorldTour Facebook: @CitiOpen Press Room: +1 202 250 8515 KARLOVIC, MONFILS BATTLE FOR ATP WORLD TOUR 500 TITLE ON THE LINE FINAL PREVIEW: The Citi Open championship on Sunday at Rock Creek Park Tennis Center features No. 13 seed Ivo Karlovic against No. 2 Gael Monfils. This is the fifth meeting between Karlovic and Monfils (tied 2-2), the second on hard courts. Karlovic won the previous hard court meeting in 2009 ATP Masters 1000 Cincinnati in a third set tie-break. The winner will capture a first ATP World Tour 500 level title, making it their biggest career crown. Karlovic leads the tournament with 80 aces and he has held serve all 43 games (saving 10 break pts.). Nick Kyrgios is the last ATP World Tour winner without losing serve (held 47 games) in Marseille in February. The big-serving Croat enters on an eight-match winning streak after capturing the Newport title last Sunday (d. Muller). At 37 years, 4 months, Karlovic is attempting to become the oldest player to win ATP World Tour singles titles in back-to-back weeks since Ken Rosewall (at 38 years, 11 mons.) won in Osaka and Tokyo in October 1973. Karlovic is appearing in his first Citi Open final and with a title he would become the oldest champion in tournament history. Jimmy Connors was 35 years, 10 mons. in 1988 when he won the title (d. Gomez). Karlovic began the season with an 0-6 mark but has compiled a 16-7 match record in the past nine tournaments. He is 7-8 lifetime in ATP World Tour finals and he’s attempting to win two titles in the same season for the first time since 2007 when he won a personal-best three titles. Monfils has only lost serve once en route to the final, holding 36 of 37 games. He leads the tournament in return games won (15 of 39, 38%). He is appearing in his first Citi Open final since his last visit five years ago (l. to Stepanek). He is making his third final appearance of the season and 25th career ATP World Tour final showing (5-19). He is trying to capture his first ATP World Tour title outside Europe and his last title came in Montpellier in February 2014 (d. Gasquet). This is Monfils’ third ATP World Tour final in the U.S. (’11 Washington, ’13 Winston-Salem). Arnaud Clement is the last Frenchman to win the Washington title in 2006 (d. Murray). Yannick Noah is the other Frenchman to win the title, in 1985 (d. Jaite).

  • 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.

Federer faces Florian Mayer in the Mercedes Cup quarter-finals, and with a win would trail only Jimmy Connors among the winningest players since the spring of 1968. Federer has a 6-0 FedEx ATP Head 2 Head record against Mayer, including straight-set wins on German grass at the Gerry Weber Open in 2005, 2012 and 2015. Federer is not the only man with a milestone on the line in Stuttgart. Mike Bryan seeks his 1,000th doubles win when he and twin brother Bob face Oliver Marach and Fabrice Martin in a semi-final match on Court 1. Only Federer, Lendl, Connors and Daniel Nestor have earned at least 1,000 victories in singles or doubles. Bob Bryan has 985 doubles wins individually. As a team, the Bryans are 984-300. Also in action are a pair of players who won their first ATP World Tour title in Stuttgart: 2002 champion Mikhail Youzhny and 2008 champion Juan Martin del Potro.
