Vucic Through to Uruguay Bowl
Quarterfinals
Ilija Vucic continued his impressive
clay court performances after
reaching the quarterfinals of the
Uruguay Bowl.
Ilija, who is currently on a
five-week tour of South America,
built on his third round showing at
the Argentina Cup last week by
recording successive victories in
Montevideo over Yuki Matsuo of Japan
and Facundo Bagnis of Argentina.
After his straight sets win over
Matsuo in the first round, Ilija
showed great fighting spirits
against Bagnis, recovering from the
loss of the first set to win 3-6,
6-3, 6-3.
“It was a good win for Ilija,” said
coach Jez Green. “He was tactically
mature and showed good patience
after losing the first 10 break
points of the second set.”
In the quarterfinals, Ilija will
meet qualifier Rafael Garcia, the
Brazilian who reached the semifinals
of the Argentina Cup last week.
