Duje Ajdukovic embodies the big surprise of the week with his qualification for the semifinals of the ATP 250 Bastad 2024 after coming unscathed from the qualifying rounds and defeating Van Assche, Kotov, and Monteiro in the main draw. This 23-year-old Croatian is currently ranked 130th in the ATP ranking this week, with his previous best ranking being 115, but he will surpass it next Monday after his performance in the Swedish event.
Up until this week, he had only won one match at the ATP level, building his rise on the Challenger circuit, where he achieved his best result this year by reaching the final in Quimper. He is a complete player, solid from the baseline, with good direction changes with his backhand, and feels comfortable on clay courts due to his great mobility. Rafael Nadal will need a good version of himself to win.

It seems unlikely that Rafael Nadal will risk his health just a week before the start of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and decide to play two matches this Saturday, following the tennis marathon he endured against Navone. The Spaniard will make decisions based on how his body feels upon waking up in the morning, but everything indicates that he will attempt to compete in the individual tournament semifinal and withdraw from the doubles. In any case, his semifinal match alongside Casper Ruud against Orlando Luz and Rafael Matos is scheduled for the third slot, around 6:00 p.m.
