Sebastian Korda and Marcos Giron are scheduled to face each other in the first round of the 2022 ATP European Open on October 19.
Last week, Sebastian Korda achieved his best performance of the year on the indoor hard courts in Gijon. He battles through two difficult victories against Andy Murray and Roberto Bautista Agut before succumbing to Andrey Rublev in the championship match, his first of the year in 2022. The American amateur has at least one victory in each of his previous six competitions and has advanced to the quarterfinals in two of his three indoor competitions this year, including Gijon (F) and Metz (QF), both of which took place last week.
Marcos Giron, who was also at Gijon last week, faced off in a pair of tense three-set matches against Albert Ramos Vinolas (W) and Dominic Thiem (L), who was formerly ranked third in the world. In 2020, when he was rated #94 in the world and had won four straight matches as a qualifier, including a match against the hometown favourite David Goffin, the 29-year-old American earned his first quarterfinal appearance on the main tour here in Antwerp.
Marcos Giron and Sebastian Korda are scheduled to face each other in the first round of the 2022 ATP European Open on Wednesday, October 19. The tournament is scheduled to begin on October 17 and end on October 23.
The ATP European Open will have five rounds of action excluding the qualifiers. These are the round of 32, round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals and final. The competition’s main draw is set to commence on October 17, 2022 and conclude on October 23, 2022.
