After their quarter-finals at the Australian Open last January, then semi-finals in both Adelaide and Delray Beach, the pairing has made an excellent start to the season and is currently in third place in the ATP Race rankings.

“It’s the first time we’ve won an ATP 500, and in the final we played our best match since the Rome tournament last year,” Hugo Nys told Monaco-Info.

“It’s been a good start to the season, but of course we always want more. We hope to perform well in the two major tournaments that are coming up (Indian Wells and Miami) before focusing on one of the big goals of the season with the Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters at home.”
