Sproch is a Slovak with no ranking who came with an invite. He was never in the top 1500. He's got 0-5 in the challengers, 3-17 in the futures. Kapas left him with four games, De Paula with five, Podlipnik one, Linzer two and Barrere with foru this year. He played the futures qualifiers twice in May. He won three games against Farinola (2-4 in the futures) and seven games against Nolan (10-24 in the futures). He wasn't any better last year, either - four futures matches where the favorites were about 1.25. He never took over five games (5, 4, 3, 3). Ignatik has no matches for comparison this year, but he does from the last year. He had 1.01 against cammarata and he lost nine games, but the Italian's got much better results (31 ITF wins). He left Drzewiecki with two games, Collela none. Both are much better than Sproch. E.g. Drzewiecki's got 23 ITF wins and some matches where he was an even opponent despite being an outsider (Kolar, Mager), he took six games from Dutra, and Colella's got 55-59 in the futures. Ignatik left Michnev with five games last year, Rehacek three, and they're all better than Sproch. This is an ITF match for Ignatik. He played four tournaments on clay courts like these last year, won two, and got a final and a semifinal. Looking at those matches, he's beaten players much stronger than Sproch within this margin, so Sproch is obviously going to collect crumbs here.
