How much Alexander Bublik needed a week like the 2026 ATP Kitzbuhel. The Kazakh arrived in Austria after a 2026 in which he went from strength to weakness. While last year he surprised in every tournament with a very mature and serious version, accompanied by a climb in the ATP ranking that put him in the Top 10, this season he has been somewhat more erratic and irregular.

Alexander Bublik and Quentin Halys will face off again in the Kitbuhel final a week after playing in Gstaad

Therefore, after Wimbledon and before heading to the North American hard court swing, the Kazakh wanted to return to two tournaments where last year he showed his best level and lifted two titles in two consecutive weeks: the ATP Gstaad and the ATP Kitzbuhel. The first one this year did not go as expected, exiting in the first round against a Quentin Halys whom he will face in the grand final of the Austrian event.

The number one seed disposed of Tomás Martín Etcheverry with a score of 6-3, 6-4, after an hour and 20 minutes of battle, while Halys defeated Yannick Hanfmann by 6-4, 7-6(2), after an hour and 42 minutes. Therefore, they repeat the match from a week ago in Switzerland when they had never faced each other before.

Although this time it will be different because it will be a final. In fact, it will be the second for the Frenchman who will seek his first ATP title after losing the first one in Gstaad in 2024, while Bublik will play his 17th final and will aim to raise his tenth title and the second of 2026 after the one obtained in the first week of the year in the ATP Hong Kong.
