Evgeny Evgenyevich Donskoy (born May 9, 1990) is a Russian tennis player playing on the regular ATP tour. He was born and currently resides in Moscow, Russia. As of 2013, he is mentored by former two-time Grand Slam champion Marat Safin.[1][2]
Career
His career-high ATP singles ranking is World No. 65, achieved in July 2013, after winning five Challenger events throughout the previous year. His favorite surface is hard courts.
In 2013, Donskoy entered Australian Open's main draw for the first time, reaching the third round and defeating 23rd seed Mikhail Youzhny in route. He also pushed Andy Murray to three sets in the Indian Wells Masters 1000 event.[3][4] Also for the first time, he entered the French Open's main draw. He beat Jan-Lennard Struff in the first round.
At the 2013 TOPSHELF Open held in 's-Hertogenbosch, he took out third seed John Isner in the first round and beat Robin Haase in the second to reach his first ATP Tour quarterfinals.
Style of play
He has very powerful, flat groundstrokes, especially his forehand, which can produce spectacular points but also a lot of unforced errors.[5]
