Mpetshi Perricard Exits in the First Round in Washington
Mpetshi Perricard faced Vukic in the first round of the Washington tournament.
Despite his usual serving power (17 aces), the Frenchman struggled against an opponent ranked significantly lower on paper (No. 105). Lacking crucial efficiency, the 22-year-old player created several break opportunities but failed to convert them (1/8).
This marks the fourth consecutive defeat for the French player, the third time he has fallen in his opening match. As a result, he will not surpass last year's performance, where he reached the second round in the American capital.
As for Vukic, he avenges his loss to Mpetshi Perricard at Queen’s last year. Following this victory, he will face a top 5 player in Fritz.
