Nakashima missed the opportunity to finish in the top-30.
Finishing the season among the top 30 on the circuit has its rewards for 2026: a guaranteed spot in various ATP 500 tournaments, regardless of whether your ranking fluctuates throughout the season. This is a new feature that the ATP will implement and one that Brandon Nakashima couldn't take advantage of, as he needed a strong performance in the 2025 ATP Athens to end the year in the top 30. His path was halted by an inspired Marcos Giron, clearing the way for other players (7-6(7), 6-1).
Other day's results (round of 16).
- Miomir Kecmanovic d. Luciano Darderi (3) 4-6, 6-2, 6-3
- Yannick Hanfmann (Q) d. Vit Kopriva (LL) 6-2, 5-7, 7-5
- Alexandre Muller (5) d. Tomás Etcheverry 6-7(2), 7-6(4), 7-6(3)
