Dostanic, Urhobo Lead USTA Roland-Garros Challenge
Former NCAA all-American Stefan Dostanic took pole position and Akasha Urhobo maintained her advantage after the second week of this year’s Roland-Garros Wild Card Challenge.
There are three more weeks of competition to determine which ATP and WTA player comes away with a main draw wild card into the French Open.
The 24-year-old Dostanic, who last year led Wake Forest to the NCAA team title and earned a wild card into the US Open by winning the American Collegiate Wild Card Playoff, reached the final of the USTA Pro Circuit ATP Challenger 75 in Sarasota, Florida. Emilio Nava, last year’s RG Wild Card Challenge winner, earned 40 points from qualifying at Monte Carlo and sits in second.
19-year-old Urhobo, ranked 235, leads the women’s side of the Challenge, after reaching the round of 32 at Charleston last week. World No. 84 Kayla Day, 26, now only trailins by five points after winning the USTA Pro Circuit W35 in Boca Raton, Fla. That title was the third for Day in 2025.
