Lukasz started off the 2012 season on a low note, losing to Italy's Andreas Seppi 6-2, 6-3 in the first round of the Qatar ExonMobil Open on Monday. The match lasted 70 minutes. The Italian broke Lukasz's serve five times and dropped only six points on first delivery.

Lukasz will also play in doubles together with Serbia's Viktor Troicki. In the first round to be played on Tuesday or Wednesday, they will face Italians Flavio Cipolla and Andreas Seppi.

Unfortunately Łukasz didn't manage to avenge his Monday's defeat to Andreas Seppi. Together with Viktor Troicki, the Polish-Serbian duo lost 6-4, 5-7, 10-6 to Italians Seppi and Cipolla.

Lukasz will be back on the court next week in Sydney.
