Baris Advances to Round of 32 at US Open Junior Championships


NEW YORK – Michigan State freshman Ozan Baris concluded play at the US Open Junior Championships Monday after advancing to the round of 32.
 
Baris, who began play on Sunday, Sept. 4, captured a 6-3, 6-4, win over Cyprus’ Constantinos Koshis in the round of 64. The win advanced him to Monday’s round of 32 against No. 3 seed Kilian Feldbausch of Switzerland.
 
Feldbausch, who holds a No. 7 ranking in the International Tennis Federation’s junior rankings, topped Baris in two sets, 6-4, 6-3. 
 
Baris’ performance comes after a third-place finish at last month’s United States Tennis Association Boys’ 18-Under National Championships. He also made appearances at this year’s Australian Junior Open and in the junior tournaments at the French Open and Wimbledon.
