(6–3, 6–2) and Santiago Ventura
(6–4, 6–1) to qualify for the main draw of the Australian Open
for the second time in his career after a first round appearance in 2004

. There he was beaten by fellow Frenchman and eventual runner-up Jérémy Chardy

Challenger in March and a final at a Futures tournament in Newcastle

, losing to Marsel İlhan
7–6(4), 7–6(6) in the second round of qualifying.
A few weeks later, he qualified for yet another ATP-level tournament, his fifth of the year, in Metz
