Wawrinka, Fognini, Coric, and Herbert Set to Compete at the Naples Challenger This Week

While the Miami Masters 1000 is in full swing, the clay-court season will begin to take over this week for many players.
In Italy, specifically in Naples, some will take their first swings and make their initial slides of the season on the red dirt. Stan Wawrinka, one of the tournament's headliners, will face a qualifier in his opening match.
The top seed, Luciano Darderi, who was eliminated in the second round in Miami, will also start against a qualifier.
Among other well-known names on the circuit, 37-year-old Fabio Fognini will take on Gauthier Onclin in his first-round match.
Borna Coric, currently on a streak of three consecutive Challenger titles (Lugano, Thionville, and Zadar), will aim for a fourth in Naples, starting his campaign against Harold Mayot.
Pierre-Hugues Herbert, looking to defend points from last season's final, will begin his week against a qualifier.
