Diego Finkelstein
Qualifying, BYE
Qualifying, Finkelstein def. Carvajal (FAU) 6-4, 2-6, 4-3
"Diego's match was very up and down. He played well in the first set and let his opponent back into the match the second set by playing more tentative, and that gave his opponent confidence. In the third set, Diego stepped up and was able to control the points better until his opponent had to withdraw due to cramping. We pride ourselves of being fit and be able to stay in matches and today it worked out for Diego." said head coach Sander Koning.
