01.06.2010 14:28:05 | At the seventeenth year of UniCredit Czech Open Jan Hajek is defending the title in singles. In the first round he defeated Argentinean Juan-Martin Aranguner 6:1, 7:5.
“My position here in Prostejov is different for the first time, I am a seeded player and the pressure on me is higher,” said Hajek after the match. He needs to win five matches to defend the title. He has already succeeded in the first one. “I know the central court in Prostejov quite well, I am training a lot on it and feel safer here. I have to admit I was a little nervous but I managed in the end. I risked too much with my serve at the first match ball and pointlessly lost the game but I was lucky to win the whole match in the end.” In the second round Hajek is going to clash with Portuguese Machad.
