Indian tennis star Sumit Nagal has received a wildcard for the main draw of the ATP 500 tournament Dubai Championship. The tournament qualifiers began on Saturday and the main draw matches will begin on Monday.
Nagal will face Italy’s Lorenzo Sonego, who is currently world ranked 49, in the first round. The 26-year-old Indian has had a stellar year, qualifying for the main draw of the Australian Open last month where he reached the second round by defeating Alexander Bublik of Kazakhstan.
He became the first Indian since 1989 to defeat a seeded player in a Grand Slam. Nagal had achieved a career-best ranking of 98 this month but slipped to 101st despite winning the ATP Challenger tournament Chennai Open last week. Russia’s Daniil Medvedev is the top seed in the Dubai Championship.
