The draw for the 2017 Abierto Mexicano Telcel Acapulco Open has been made, and immidiately one potential match-up is a mouthwatering prospect. Top seed and wildcard entry Novak Djokovic may have to face the unseeded Juan Martin del Potro in the second round. Djokovic starts against Martin Klizan, whilst del Potro starts against a qualifier. Nick Kyrgios is also in Djokovic’s section.
Rafael Nadal is the second seed, and he will face Mischa Zverev in round one. Nadal could face the in-form Jack Sock in the quarter-finals. Defending champion Dominic Thiem is in the same section as David Goffin, whilst the out-of-form Marin Cilic could face John Isner in the quarters, though he will first have to negotiate a tough match with Alexandr Dolgopolov.
