Alex GruskinHOST
Of course, at the challenger level, your final of the weekend, my guy J.
Alex GruskinHOST
Friend had his chances, knocked out by Alibek Hachimzhan, the 24-year-old, 4-6, 7-6, 7-6 over Friend in Wuning.
Alex GruskinHOST
Of course, you had Laslo Djere win in Vienna.
Alex GruskinHOST
Uh, Matej Dodig, will he go to Texas? I believe he's top 150 right now in the live rankings, the former top 10 junior in the world.
Alastair MiddletonHOST
Um, an American college product who's lived all over the world, I think, but does represent Japan.
Alastair MiddletonHOST
Uh, Jay Friend got to the final in the latest, uh, challenger in Wuning, I think it was.
Eddie McGheeHOST
Yeah, and he's, uh, another player that's come through US college, so he, you know, he, he's-
Alastair MiddletonHOST
Arizona.
Eddie McGheeHOST
Yeah, so Arizona.
Eddie McGheeHOST
I mean, he is one that's, um, seemingly, um, you know, sort of, you know, done pretty well in, in making that transition.
Eddie McGheeHOST
So he got to the final, um, there, um, Jay Friend i- in, in Wuning, Wuning 3 Challenger.
Alastair MiddletonHOST
Yeah.
Alex GruskinHOST
He's through to the semifinals in Vienna.
Alex GruskinHOST
Of course, shout out, uh, Jay Friend, the recent Arizona grad, the, uh, All-American, uh, through to the semifinals in Wuning.
Alex GruskinHOST
Slowly but surely working his way back up towards that top 245 and, uh, slam qualifying range.
Alex GruskinHOST
Uh, again, Matej Dodig, the soon to be, you know, he's top 200 in the live rankings.
Alex GruskinHOST
Jack Pennington-Jones, yeah, currently sitting at 191 as a result of this quarterfinal run.
Alex GruskinHOST
Of course, over in Wuning, fun one between my guy, Jay Friend, fresh off of his Arizona career.
Alex GruskinHOST
Jay's worked his way, I believe he's inside the top 300 now.
Alex GruskinHOST
Now he'll have some serious points coming off of his resume next week, uh, or maybe it is this week with the Fairfield Challenger.
Alex GruskinHOST
He's at 310 right now.
Alex GruskinHOST
Can the 22-year-old work his way to slam qualifying ranking by the end of the year? Level-wise, certainly a big opportunity for him to rack up some points.
Alex GruskinHOST
He'll take on top 100 doubles player, former UNC Princeton standout, Ryan Sacramen, who took the opportunity to play Qualies, now finds himself in the quarterfinals in Wuning.
Alex GruskinHOST
That'll be a fun battle, certainly to enjoy.
Alex GruskinHOST
He takes on Laslo Djere as well.
Alex GruskinHOST
So plenty of good action in Vienna, but if that's not enough, again, Wuning, you got Jay Friend, Ryan Segerman, Evan Xu, Omar Jessica back in action there, Braga, uh, Antofagasta, and of course, Palermo, the home of our Challenger action this week.
Alex GruskinHOST
It's a fun one.
Alex GruskinHOST
We got...
Alex GruskinHOST
I believe that's the 75K event, uh, on the calendar this week.
Alex GruskinHOST
Uh, by the way, of course, if that's not enough, you've got the action in Wuning, the action in Braga, the anti- in Antofa- uh, Fagasta, and of course, the a- action in Palermo as well.
Alex GruskinHOST
Last but not least, of course, a shout-out here, uh, on Tuesday, October 6th, to my birthday brother, Juan Pablo Varillas.
Alex GruskinHOST
Shout-out to us, 31 years old, immensely grateful as some of you Crack rackets listeners, some of you fans were kind enough to send a DM my way.
