Lincoln is serving up some exciting professional tennis this week as the city plays host to the ATP Challenger Lincoln (NE) tournament. Round 1 matches are already underway, drawing a field of competitive players from around the world to compete right here in Nebraska’s capital.
Among the first-round matchups getting things started, fans have been treated to contests featuring players such as Spencer Johnson taking on Remy Bertola, Mitchell Krueger squaring off against Alex Martinez, Coleman Wong facing Tung-Lin Wu, Mark Lajal meeting Trevor Svajda, Saketh Myneni going up against Nathaniel Lammons, and Rio Noguchi competing against Charles Broom. Qualifying rounds have also been in full swing, with matches like Ronald Hohmann versus Dhakshineswar Suresh adding to the action.

It is the kind of event that puts Lincoln on the international sports map and gives local tennis fans a rare opportunity to see world-class competition close to home.
