WINSTON-SALEM OPEN: PREVIEW & 19 AUGUST MEDIA NOTES Wake Forest University Winston-Salem, NC, USA 19-25 August 2018 Draw: S-48, D-16 Prize Money: $691,415 Surface: Outdoor Hard ATP World Tour Info Tournament Info ATP PR & Marketing ATPWorldTour.com WinstonSalemOpen.com Greg Sharko: gsharko@atpworldtour.com Twitter: @ATPWorldTour @WSOpen Press Officer: robin@rlimedia.com Facebook: @ATPWorldTour @WinstonSalemOpen TV & Radio: TennisTV.com 10 THINGS TO WATCH IN WINSTON-SALEM 1) Mini US Open: One week before the last Grand Slam of 2018, the Winston-Salem Open welcomes 19 of the Top 50 players in the ATP Rankings and more than 40 men who will compete in the US Open main draw, including #NextGenATP s Alex de Minaur, Andrey Rublev, and Taylor Fritz. 2) Demon Child: De Minaur has achieved a career-high ranking 15 times in 2018, rising from No. 208 on 1 January to No. 43 this week. The 19-year-old saved four match points to defeat Rublev in the Washington semi-finals on 4 August. De Minaur s loss to Alexander Zverev one day later was the youngest ATP World Tour final since Rafael Nadal defeated Novak Djokovic at 2007 Indian Wells. 3) Youth Movement: #NextGenATP players Zverev, de Minaur, Rublev, and Stefanos Tsitsipas comprised the semi-finals in Washington, marking the first ATP World Tour event since 1995 Buenos Aires to feature four semi-finalists under the age of 22. Though Rublev lost to de Minaur, the Russian won his first title at 2017 Umag as a 19-year-old and advanced to the 2018 Doha final. 4) Phenomenal Fritz: Before the breakthroughs of Rublev and de Minaur, an 18-year-old Fritz advanced to the 2016 Memphis final in the third tour-level event of his career. Two-and-a-half years later, Fritz remains the youngest finalist on tour since Kei Nishikori, 18, at 2008 Delray Beach. 5) Race to Milan: If the season ended today, Fritz, Rublev, and de Minaur would all qualify for the Next Gen ATP Finals, where Hyeon Chung won the title in 2017. Chung went on to defeat Zverev and Djokovic en route to the Australian Open semi-finals. He is the No. 6 seed in Winston-Salem. 6) American Made: No. 8 seed Steve Johnson and No. 9 seed Sam Querrey share a coach in Craig Boynton and are separated by one spot in the ATP Rankings. While Johnson has won titles at Houston and Newport this season, Querrey s only semi-final came at New York in February. 7) Tough at the Top: World No. 11 David Goffin is the No. 1 seed in Winston-Salem. In eight prior tournaments as the top seed, Goffin has reached a final only once, at 2015 Gstaad. The Belgian returns to Winston-Salem for the first time since qualifying en route to the 2014 quarter-finals. 8) Past Champion Busta: The only former champion in the Winston-Salem field is No. 2 seed Pablo Carreno Busta, who won the title in 2016. Like Goffin, Carreno Busta is seeking his first final of the season. He reached semi-finals in the spring at ATP Masters 1000 Miami, Barcelona, and Estoril. 9) Breakout Year: No. 1 Brit Kyle Edmund reached his first Grand Slam semi-final at the Australian Open, first ATP World Tour final at Marrakech, and first ATP Masters 1000 quarter-final at Madrid. Edmund, who is ranked a career-high No. 16 this week, accepted a wild card into Winston-Salem. 10) Home-Court Advantage: Three members of the 2018 NCAA national champion Wake Forest Demon Deacons will compete on their home courts at the Winston-Salem Open: main draw wild card Borna Gojo and qualifying wild cards Petros Chrysochos and Skander Mansouri.
