The return

It should be remembered that last year Rafa Nadal did not compete in the tournament after being the reigning champion, so, let's say, he will be defending his crown after two years.

Already has experience

It should be noted that the American Kudla has already played a couple of matches in the Acapulco Open where he defeated the Mexican Pacheco 2-1 but lost 2-1 against the German Daniel Atmaier, however, due to the absence of his compatriot Opelka, Kudla took his place.
