[1] In 2004 he featured in a Davis Cup tie for his country against Venezuela in Caracas and lost his singles rubber to Kepler Orellana. [2] Following a limited time on the professional tour, in which he amassed a best world ranking of 402 and won two Futures titles, he chose to pursue studies in the United States. He played collegiate tennis for Rice University and was a two-time All-American. [3]
