Australia, July 11, 2022 | tennis.com.au
The grass-court season continues for several Australian players at the Hall of Fame Open in Newport this week.
Five Australians – James Duckworth, Jordan Thompson, Alexei Popyrin, Jason Kubler and Max Purcell – compete in singles at the ATP 250 tournament.
Thompson and Kubler, who both enjoyed impressive grass swings, faced off in the opening round.
New Wimbledon doubles champion Purcell is a wildcard entry and takes on Frenchman Adrian Mannarino in a rematch of their first-round singles clash at the All England Club.
It’s a special week for Australian tennis, with Lleyton Hewitt officially inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame during the tournament. The former world No. 1 will become the 32nd Australian to receive the honor and the first since wheelchair champion David Hall in 2015.
