After 14 unsuccessful tries spread over 10 months, Soon Woo Kwon was able to win back-to-back matches in tour-level competitions this year. In the first round, he defeated Alex de Minaur in straight sets, and in the second round in Tokyo, he defeated Mackenzie McDonald, who had just advanced to the ATP Seoul quarterfinals, in three sets. Since he participated in ATP Astana (250 – Nur-Sultan) around this time last year and won his first ATP championship there, defeating players like Alexander Bublik and James Duckworth, this is the ideal week for the South Korean No. 1 to finish his second-round struggles and get back in shape.

Prior to this week, Soon Woo Kwon hadn’t won back-to-back matches (in elimination events) all season. In contrast, Pedro Martinez Portero, who was Soon Woo Kwon’s opponent, hadn’t achieved that feat since the ATP Kitzbuhel tournament in July. Even though the Spaniard has struggled for the duration of the season and has only two more victories than the South Korean, his title-winning run on the clay courts in Santiago back in February will ensure that he has a great season.
