Head coach Nicolas Brochu 
"Very happy for Juan, it's been a long recovery. He's been injured since February and he missed most of the spring and missed most of our fall tournaments but he was cleared to play this one and I am very happy he got his first win. Glad to have him back at the competitive side. Martin went 1-1 in singles today. His first clay court tournament of the fall so it took him a set to get used to the surface and after that things started clicking. His second match, he was playing the number one seed, but he battled very well. For tomorrow, both guys are back in action for singles and doubles. Looking for another good day."
