Dino Prižmić, the semifinalist of Umag two years ago, will face Dane Elmer Møller, ranked 102nd in the ATP rankings, in the first round. This is also his career-best ranking, achieved just this week. A few days ago, he won the ATP Challenger in Iași, Romania.
Matej Dodig, last week’s ATP Challenger winner in Trieste, will face Italian Francesco Passaro, the 131st player in the world, in his opening match. Mili Poljičak will face Dutch player Jesper de Jong, who is ranked 106th on the ATP singles list this week.
The top seed of the tournament and defending champion is Argentine Francisco Cerúndolo, who will have a bye in the first round and then face the winner of the match between Spaniard Carlos Taberner and Frenchman Pierre-Hugues Herbert. Former Umag winner, Swiss Stan Wawrinka, will face one of the qualifiers.
The qualifying tournament will start on Saturday, featuring several very attractive names, two of which stand out especially. First and foremost is Italian Marco Cecchinato, the 2018 Umag champion, and Argentine Federico Coria, who was once ranked among the world’s top 50 players. Among the Croatian players in the qualifiers will be Luka Mikrut, but he faces a tough challenge in the first round against Argentine Marco Trungelliti, the 2018 Umag semifinalist. To qualify for the main draw, players need to win two matches in the qualifiers.
