Federer, Mike Bryan Seek Milestone Wins on Friday MERCEDES CUP: DAY 5 MEDIA NOTES Friday, June 10, 2016 TC Weissenhof, Stuttgart, Germany | June 6-12, 2016 Draw: S-28, D-16 | Prize Money: €606,525 | Surface: Grass ATP Info Tournament Info ATP PR & Marketing www.ATPWorldTour.com www.mercedescup.de Martin Dagahs: [email protected] @ATPWorldTour @MercedesCup Press Room: +49 711 32095705 facebook.com/ATPWorldTour facebook.com/MercedesCup FEDERER, MIKE BRYAN SEEK MILESTONE WINS ON FRIDAY QUARTER-FINAL PREVIEW: No. 1 seed Roger Federer could pass Hall-of-Famer Ivan Lendl on Friday and move into second place in the Open Era with 1,072 victories. 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. Federer (143) is the only player in the Stuttgart draw with more grass-court victories than Youzhny (56). The Russian’s opponent, World No. 7 Dominic Thiem, is 3-6 on grass without back-to-back wins. In his first grass tournament since reaching the 2013 Wimbledon semi-finals, del Potro meets 2015 Wimbledon quarter-finalist Gilles Simon. The winner will play No. 7 seed Philipp Kohlschreiber or 37-year-old qualifier Radek Stepanek in the semis.
