L32: Alex Slabinsky WR 665 v (Q) Charles Costa (BRA) WR 1046 - Tuesday
A nice draw for Slabba, (6) Haithem Abid (TUN) WR 392 or another qualifier will await the winner in R2. The top seed in this event is ranked 4 places below Slabba's career high of 266.

Slabba's also in the doubles. He & his Spanish partner, Guillermo Alcaide, are the third seeds & beat the unranked Brazilian WCs, Americo Lanzoni & Emilio Muller, by 0 & 2 in the first round:
QF: (3) Guillermo Alcaide & Alex Slabinsky WR 835 vs (WC) Eladio Ribeiro Neto & Renato Silveira (BRA/BRA) WR 1891
They must have a reasonable chance of making the semis...
Edited in: P.S. Meant to say, that match is also being played today "after a suitable rest".
