The Erste Bank Open in Vienna is going ahead in 2020 with the first day today and it has a great schedule of play to start.
The first day of the Erste Bank Open Vienna is today and it features a strong schedule of play that features 5 great matches. It will all start at 14:00 CET with Coric taking on Taylor Fritz. The Croatian last played in Russia not long ago where he lost in the final against Rublev. He is in good form and he enjoys playing indoors so he will like his chances against the tricky Fritz. At the same time as that match, another one will start and will feature Kevin Anderson and Dennis Novak. The native Austrian will enjoy the support of the crowd but Anderson is no slouch. It will be a great match either way.

The programme will continue with a match between Gael Monfils and Pablo Carreno-Busta. A very fascinating matchup between Monfils who hasn't played well at all since the restart and Carreno-Busta who was impressive in North America. The Spaniard has regressed a bit but he is still in better form than Monfils who hasn't won a match since the restart. After them, we will see Andrey Rublev take on Gombos who is a qualifier. Ruble won in St. Petersburg as has been in great form heading into this one. He will look to continue that against Gombos.
The last match of the day is reserved for another Austrian in Rodionov who will take on Shapovalov. A great matchup to end the day between Shapo who has playing good but inconsistent tennis and Rodionov who will cherish the opportunity.

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.
mandoist09-11-2026 - Ironically, Martina became a U.S. Citizen about the same time as the Orange Convicted Felon & Abuser was just beginning on his road to losing all Daddy's Millions!!
mandoist09-11-2026 - "Another fresh start is in the cards." Thanks for the Humor!! I'm guessing this is the minimum one can do to keep all your sponsors hanging-on in perpetuity?
mandoist09-11-2026 - Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.
mandoist08-11-2026 - Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??
mandoist08-11-2026 - Wtf? Why is there no reason? And what about the men's?Bel08-11-2026
- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Enough of her bullshit. Go marry someone.
mandoist06-11-2026 - Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
