Yuki was the lone Indian competing in the singles but as many as six of his compatriots will compete in the men’s doubles later this week. The 25-year-old has featured in the men’s singles main draw of all three Grand Slams of the season so far but is yet to win a match. He had qualified for the Australian Open and earned direct entry into French Open and Wimbledon, courtesy his top-100 rank.
