Austrian wild card Dennis Novak scored his first ATP World Tour match win on his home soil at the Generali Open in Kitzbühel on Monday.

 

The 21 year old, who is coached by top seed Dominic Thiem’s father, Wolfgang Thiem, beat Aljaz Bedene 6-7(2), 6-4, 6-1 in two hours and 11 minutes.

 

Novak will face third seed and Hamburg runner-up Fabio Fognini in the second round.

 

Eighth seed Albert Ramos-Vinolas beat Diego Schwartzman 6-3, 6-4 in 71 minutes in their first ATP World Tour meeting. The Spaniard will face the winner of Gerald Melzer and Albert Montantes.

 

Federico Delbonis defeated Pablo Carreno Busta 7-5, 6-4, improving his FedEx ATP Head2Head record against the Spaniard to 2-0. The Argentine will face two-time champion (2011-12) Robin Haase. The Dutchman advanced after Juan Monaco, who was leading 6-2, 1-1, retired due to a right wrist injury.

 

Paul-Henri Mathieu beat fellow French qualifier Kenny De Schepper 6-2, 6-2 to set a second-round clash with No. 4 seed Martin Klizan.

 

Santiago Giraldo capitalised on six of his 13 break point opportunities to beat Rogerio Dutra Silva 7-5, 6-2.
