Ernesto Escobedo
At one time, Escobedo occupied 67th place in the ATP rating. But due to injuries, he missed a lot and now dropped to the 200th line. At times, the American demonstrates a good game, but he lacks stability. For example, two weeks ago, in Cleveland, Ernesto beat Guilherme Clezar, Alejandro Tabilo and Denis Kudla. But in the semifinals, he unexpectedly lost to the little-known Japanese Watanuki (4-6, 4-6).
After this tournament, Escobedo disappeared somewhere and appeared only in Mexico. Here he had already managed to go some matches. he defeated the Australian Jason Kubler (6-1, 6-2).
Aleksandar Vukic
Vukic currently occupies 244th place in the world ranking. The 23-year-old representative of Australia plays well this season. Last week, Aleksandar managed to get to the quarterfinals at the tournament in Columbus, where he lost to Denis Istomin in two sets (3-6, 2-6).
In addition, Vukic can put in his asset the victory over Thomas Fabbiano (7-6, 6-4) and Matthias Bachinger (6-4, 6-3) in the Australian Open qualification.
