Luca Van Assche achieved something this Sunday that had only happened once before in history: Pablo Carreño losing a final on the Challenger circuit. The Asturian was on a roll in 2025 with three titles in the category (Tenerife, Tenerife, and Villena), but he couldn't secure the fourth this afternoon at the Challenger 125 in Olbia, where he fell to the Frenchman by 7-6, 6-7, and 6-2. Pablo's record in these types of finals was 14-1, having only lost in the Seville Cup in 2015 against Pedro Cachín. A decade later, the Asturian had to settle for the runner-up trophy for the second time, but this keeps him in the top100.
