Heliovaara, not Keliovaara.

It'll be tough for Ross. Heliovaara would have been top 1000 by now had he not picked up an injury. Last year he took Zverev to three sets.

Heliovaara has pulled out.
Ross is now due to play Croatian lucky loser Stefano Vukov (WR1381)

Good to see Ross picking up a win. Second ranking point for him this month after his second round appearance in Cameroon.

Hard to see him getting even a set of Boretti though. He made the semis of his last 2 Futures events, which were in Norway. Around this time last year he was top 400 but has slipped around 300 places now.

Not too surprising in R2 but that win should cement Ross in the top 1000 for a few months and get him DA's to main draws siving him a chance to get up to around 750-800 with some more round 1 wins!

Here's hoping...
