Carreño, Ramos, Alcaraz, Munar and Feliciano, in Winston-Salem

Five players from the Navy will participate next week in the ATP 250 in Winston-Salem, a tournament that starts this Sunday with tradition and success for Spain, which has had four champions there, Carlos Moyá (1997), Fernando Verdasco (2009), Pablo Carreño (2016) and Roberto Bautista (2017 and runner-up in 2016), and three more finalists, Félix Mantilla (1998), Álex Corretja (1999) and Feliciano López (2005 ).

Two players with brilliant pasts in the state of North Carolina, Carreño and Feliciano, repeat their presence this year, along with Albert Ramos, Carlos Alcaraz and Jaume Munar. Carreño, Ramos and Alcaraz are seeded and are exempt from the first round. The first favorite from Gijon will debut on Tuesday or Wednesday against Moldovan Radu Albot or South Korean Soonwoo Kwon, and if he advances, by ranking he would meet for the third time in recent weeks with the German Dominik Koepfer, the Croatian Marin Cilic and the British Daniel Evans, before a hypothetical final against the Belgian David Goffin.

Ramos will face the Swedish Mikael Ymer or the Italian Stefano Travaglia, while Alcaraz will face the American Steve Johnson or a rival from the previous one. As for the rest, both Feliciano and Munar will run into a qualifying opponent in the first round. Reigning champion Hubert Hurkacz is not participating this year. Two years ago, Daniil Medvedev, now number two in the world, won.

Kyrgios-Murray, stellar match of the first round

The most attractive game of the initial round of the Winston-Salem Open is the one that will face this Sunday (not before 1:00) the Australian Nick Kyrgios and the British and former world number one Andy Murray. It will be the seventh meeting between the two, in a head to head that Murray dominates 5-1. Kyrgios' only victory came in their last match, at the Queen's grass tournament.

Results, tables and schedules.

Sara Sorribes, in Cleveland

Sara Sorribes, who only played the doubles draw, with Paula Badosa, at the WTA 1,000 in Cincinnati, will be this week at the 250 in Cleveland as the seventh seed. The Castellón will face an opponent from the previous round in the first round, and if she continues, her next rivals could be the Russian Vera Zvonareva, the British Johanna Konta and the Estonian Anett Kontaveit, before a final against the Russian Daria Kasatkina, first favorite .
