“Today was a difficult game,” said Davidovich Fokina. “I played twice this year twice. He is a great server, I knew that I had to play every point and move it. It gave me confidence because I knew I had my chances in every game. I think I play well.”
With his run in DC last week, Davidovich Fokina cracked the top 20 for the first time, and he is now a career high no. 18 in the PIF ATP Live ranking. Davidovich Fokina is also on the hard courts of Delray Beach and Acapulco and made it earlier this year on the hard courts of Delray Beach and Acapulco in the PIF ATP Live Race to Turin, with the aim of debuting at the NITTO ATP Finals.
