Gaston Breezes Through In ‘s-Hertogenbosch

Hugo Gaston cruised to victory in his first tour-level match on grass before rain curtailed play on Monday at the Libema Open in ‘s-Hertogenbosch.

The 21-year-old Frenchman broke Soonwoo Kwon’s serve five times in a quickfire 6-2, 6-1 first-round win at the ATP 250 event in the Netherlands. His second-round opponent will be eighth seed Jenson Brooksby or home wild card Jesper De Jong.

Play was only possible in one other match on Monday. Kamil Majchrzak leads Dominik Koepfer 3-1 in the opening set in a first-round match that is now scheduled to be completed on Tuesday.

World No. 2 Daniil Medvedev is the top seed in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, where Felix Auger-Aliassime and Taylor Fritz are also competing. Adrian Mannarino is defending his title from the most recent edition of the grass-court event, held in 2019.
