More on Evgeny Korolev
Description from Wikipedia:
Evgeny Korolev is a Russian tennis player; also the cousin of retired Russian player Anna Kournikova. He began playing tennis at age four with his father and picked up his first ATP points at age 15 in three German Challengers. He can speak Russian, German, English and Spanish. He is currently the second-youngest member of the Top 100, behind only Juan Martin del Potro of Argentina. Lately, he has had success on the ATP Challenger Series and has started to appear on on the ATP Tour, reaching the quarterfinals in the Medibank International in early 2007. At Las Vegas, he made it to his first career ATP semifinal, taking out James Blake in the round robin stage, as well as fast-rising American Sam Querrey in the quarterfinals, before losing to Austrian Jurgen Melzer in 3 sets.
2008
In 2008, Korolev reached the quarterfinals in his second event of the year in Sydney, losing to Frenchman Fabrice Santoro. During the second round of a tournament in Las Vegas, Korolev was leading 6-3 5-2 against number one seed Fernando Gonzalez of Chile. He served for the match twice and was broken each time. He eventually prevailed in a second set tiebreak but needed 11 match points to win. He said that if he had lost that second set, he would have lost the match. Korolev reached his first semifinal of the year, losing to Nicolas Almagro in Valencia. After losing in the first round in Munich and Roland Garros, Korolev reached his third quarterfinal of the year, losing to number one Russian Nikolay Davydenko.
