Every Grand Slam, I feature players who are currently ranked outside the Top 100 but have reached the second round. That is not an easy feat to do since to be outside the Top 100, you'd have to qualify first and then have a little luck in the draw for the first round so that you can have a chance to reach the second round.
Ryan Harrison, currently ranked #122, defeated Ivan Dodig of Croatia in the first round. Dodig is currently ranked at #37. In the secound round, he meets a tougher , to make it to the second round for the first time - his opponent, David Ferrer, who is currently ranked at #6. Hopefully, this win in the first round should help Ryan move up in the rankings.
