After his two victories against Machac and Popyrin without dropping a set, the Italian tennis player will face one of the greatest talents on the circuit with the intention of continuing to add points in the ranking.
After his significant victory against Daniil Medvedev at the ATP Doha 2026, Stefanos Tsitsipas has come to the defense of the one-handed backhand, which he believes is gradually disappearing. "I want children to see that in modern tennis the one-handed backhand still exists. I want more kids to start playing with a one-handed backhand. I feel like it's fading a bit. Grigor Dimitrov would agree with me. We have talked about it many times," he stated courtside.

Arthur Fils has many reasons to smile. The first one is that he has already overcome his back injury that kept him away from the circuit for half a year, as seen in his victory over Quentin Halys in the round of 16 of the ATP Doha 2026. However, what caught the most attention in that match was the presence of Goran Ivanisevic in his box, something he talked about after securing his spot in the next round. "He is a great champion. A Grand Slam winner who has coached a bunch of champions. He will help me throughout the season, it's the best for me. I am very happy that he has joined us".
