It's the good and the bad of playing in the week before a Grand Slam tournament. The good part? The draw is a bit more relaxed, and you can become a champion, as Tomas Machac did at the ATP 250 in Adelaide. The downside? In two days, he has the first round of the 2026 Australian Open, where Grigor Dimitrov awaits. But the Czech is happy; he wouldn't change a thing about what happened. With the trophy in hand, everything becomes easier.

"I've spent a lot of time on the court, not like in the preseason, unfortunately. Right now, my physical condition is good. I felt good in the third set, had no problems, no cramps. There wasn't even a hint of cramps, so I'm arriving in Melbourne quite prepared. I know the conditions will change there. I also know that I will finish this tournament tired, but now I have two days to recover. I'll try to land in Melbourne with a new energy and renewed motivation," Tomas assessed before catching his next flight.
