Gael Monfils will make his 2011 Washington debut on Wednesday night against up-and-coming American Ryan Sweeting.
Gael Monfils (1) vs. Ryan Sweeting
Top seed Gael Monfils comes into the Washington tournament off a stint on the European clay. The Frenchman had good results during the spring clay court swing, before putting in a disappointing third round showing at Wimbledon. Monfils made the choice to stay in Europe instead of coming directly to the States.
His second round opponent is American Ryan Sweeting, ranked 66 in the world. Sweeting hasn’t had much success during the summer hard court swing yet. He has a first round loss in Atlanta and a second round ouster in LA to show for his efforts.
Prediction – Monfils in straight sets.
Ryan Harrison vs. Viktor Troicki (3)
Young American Ryan Harrison will try his hand against the No. 3 seed Viktor Troicki on Wednesday evening. Harrison is ranked 82 in the world, compared to Troicki’s 15, but this match could well be closer than their rankings suggest.
Troicki has had some good hardcourt results this year, including a pair of 4th round showings at Indian Wells and Miami and a final in Sydney. He had a disappointing grass court season, with only a second round to show for his efforts at Wimbledon.
Harrison has been on an outstanding run. He made the semifinals in both Atlanta and Los Angeles, losing to Mardy Fish on both occasions.
Expect a battle, with Harrison pulling off the upset.
