Capable of the best and the worst, Bublik is a true artist on the court. Known for spectacular shots, the Kazakh once again stood out against Giron in 2023.

In fact, during the first round of the ATP 250 in Chengdu (China), Bublik made a net approach. This was followed by a first reflex backhand volley, then a second before concluding the point, slightly assisted by his opponent.

Nevertheless, despite some flashes of genius, the native of Gatchina (Russia) ultimately lost in two sets (7-6, 6-3) to the American. A real underperformance for him, considering his status as the No. 5 seed.

Moreover, Giron did not last long in the tournament either, as he lost in the next round to Rinderknech (7-6, 6-4).

Adrien Guyot 29/11/2025 à 09h08

Since February 2022 and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, Ukrainian sport has been heavily affected by human, structural and economic losses. Tennis has, of course, not been spared. While Ukrainian athletes have had to rethink their entire organization, an entire country, behind the scenes, has had to adapt and change its training conditions. This extends all the way to the highest level, where professional players have spoken out, trying as best they can to help their nation.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
