Sebastian Korda and Otto Virtanen had never faced each other until the ATP Marseille. The American was the clear favorite based on ranking in that first round, but the Finn did not let the numbers dictate the outcome of the match. It was indeed a serious battle, with Virtanen taking 2 and a half hours to secure the first victory of his career against a top 30 player by 6(3)-7 7-6(4) 6-4. Impressive performance by Otto, eliminating the fifth seed in one fell swoop. On the other hand, Hamad Medjedovic also emerged victorious in his match against Raphael Collignon (6-3 6-4) and Lorenzo Sonego defeated Botic van de Zandschulp with a score of 6-1 3-6 6-3.

With the title at the ATP Rotterdam, Carlos Alcaraz, Samuel López makes a grand entrance as the second coach of the Murcian. After recently joining the team officially, López expressed his satisfaction with Carlitos' level during the tournament. In statements to Eurosport, the coach talked about Alcaraz's technical improvements and being true to oneself. "We have emphasized that he be himself. That he is very clear about what he has to do, his routines, his attitude, being above all. To worry a lot about that and not so much about tennis, and from there, build Carlos Alcaraz. He is achieving it. It is one of the objectives we set in the preseason. Things are not easy, but we have taken another step this week. We must continue in this direction. He is not at an advanced age because he is very young, but he has tennis experiences in which he has to get to know himself more and more,"he said.

Tremendous victory by Marta Kostyuk at the WTA 1000 in Doha, as the Ukrainian has just delivered one of the best matches of her career on hard court. Kostyuk defeated the world number 3, Coco Gauff, who is heading home after an early exit (6-2 7-5). The American failed to be solid and maintain her chances, succumbing to a large number of errors, especially in the second set where she started with an advantage. Kostyuk played her role to perfection, while Gauff will have to deal with a tough and unexpected loss. On the other hand, Elena Rybakina did meet expectations against Peyton Stearns (6-2 6-4) in a victory that could have complicated after Stearns raised her game in the second set.

Djokovic's early return to competition in Doha has reignited the debate about the extent of his injury.
Elina Svitolina needed to react to avoid an early exit in the WTA Doha. Although the response took time to arrive, as Marketa Vondrousova dealt her a tough blow by blanking her in the first set of the match. The Ukrainian had to reset and bring out all her weapons to turn the score around and complete a last-minute comeback. Thus, even though Svitolina didn't reach her best level, she was able to once again demonstrate the fighting spirit that lives within her (0-6 6-2 7-5).

Today, Spanish tennis has lost one of its three contenders in the ATP Buenos Aires after Roberto Carballés was defeated in the first round.
