Match summary
Petr Nesterov and Manas Dhamne meet in the round of 16 at Cervia on May 18 on outdoor clay. Both men sit outside the top 350, with Nesterov ranked 386 and Dhamne at 391. The two have never played each other.
Nesterov has won 7 of his last 10 matches overall, including three contests in the past two weeks. Dhamne holds a 6-4 record over his last 10 and won his most recent match a day ago. On clay specifically, Nesterov has posted a 10-10 record while Dhamne stands 11-9, suggesting neither has built reliable consistency on the surface.
Nesterov is a defensive player who constructs points through steadiness and retrieval, relying on his opponent to break down first. Dhamne operates from a reactionary stance, waiting for openings before accelerating into attack. The match will hinge on whether Dhamne can generate aggressive windows within Nesterov's containment, or if Nesterov's discipline wears down the counterpuncher's rhythm over the course of a clay court grind.
