Somdev Devvarman suffered yet another first round defeat as he lost in straight sets to world number 24 Radek Stepanek of Czech Republic in the ATP Japan Open Tennis Championships here on Monday.
The unseeded Indian, ranked 85, lost 4-6 3-6 to his seventh seed opponent in the singles event of the USD 1,214,50 hard court tournament.
Statistically it has been a successful year for Somdev as he touched a career-high rank of 62 this season but lost in the first rounds of several ATP tournaments.
Reaching the final of the Johannesburg event and the pre-quarterfinals of the Indian Wells Masters remain the highlight of his season.
