7 TURKISH AIRLINES OPEN ANTALYA: PREVIEW & 24 JUNE MEDIA NOTES 10 THINGS TO WATCH IN ANTALYA 1) Grass 250s: The last stops on the road to Wimbledon are on the lawns of Antalya and Eastbourne. At the Turkish Airlines Open Antalya, inaugural finalists Yuichi Sugita and Adrian Mannarino return alongside wild cards and former Top 10 players Fernando Verdasco and Gael Monfils. 2) Back to the Breakthrough: Sugita s first ATP World Tour semi-final, final and title all came at 2017 Antalya. He s back after beating World No. 7 Dominic Thiem on 20 June in Halle for the biggest win of his career. Sugita lost nine straight tour-level matches from 1 March through 10 June. 3) No. 1 Again: Mannarino had never been the No. 1 seed of an ATP World Tour event entering the grass-court season. In Antalya, he s the top seed for the second time in three weeks after heading the field at s-hertogenbosch. Mannarino lost his opening match at s-hertogenbosch to countryman Jeremy Chardy. He is seeking his first title after four runner-up finishes, including 2017 Antalya. 4) 500 and Counting: Verdasco will make his 61st straight Grand Slam appearance at Wimbledon. His longevity on tour was rewarded with the 500th win of his career on 8 May in Madrid. Though he s never captured a grass-court title, Verdasco led eventual champion Andy Murray by two sets in the 2013 Wimbledon quarter-finals. He fell to Mannarino in the 2017 Antalya quarter-finals. 5) Grounded Gael: Monfils had a flying start to the 2018 season, capturing his seventh career title at Doha and defeating World No. 3 Marin Cilic at Rio de Janeiro. But the Frenchman is just 3-5 since suffering a back injury against countryman Pierre-Hugues Herbert on 14 March at Indian Wells. 6) Momentum Stalled: No. 2 seed Damir Dzumhur ended 2017 on a 24-7 run, highlighted by his first two ATP World Tour titles at St. Petersburg and Moscow. But the 26-year-old Bosnian is in 2018, including seven opening-match losses. Dzumhur is making his tournament debut in Antalya. 7) Portuguese Pride: Joao Sousa was 0-3 at the Millennium Estoril Open before breaking through in a big way last month. Sousa saved two match points against Pedro Sousa (no relation) and defeated #NextGenATP players Stefanos Tsitsipas and Frances Tiafoe to win the Estoril title. 8) Surprise, Surprise: Mirza Basic and Roberto Carballes Baena won the first ATP World Tour titles of their respective careers on 11 February. Both the Bosnian and Spaniard were qualifiers ranked outside of the Top 100 when they won championships at Sofia and Quito respectively. 9) Turkish Hope: Cem Ilkel will be a wild card for the ninth time at an ATP World Tour event this week. The 22-year-old Turk came closest to his first win at 2017 Antalya, holding five match points before falling to Mohamed Safwat. Ilkel is coming off his fourth Futures title at Namangan, UZB. 10) In-Form at 40: Among the teams playing doubles in Antalya are former World No. 1 Max Mirnyi and Philipp Oswald. Since joining forces last August, the 40-year-old Mirnyi and 32-year-old Oswald are as a team with titles at 2017 Moscow, 2018 New York, and 2018 Houston.
