Open Court

MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

Fun fact: Stephanos Tsitsipas was 0-11 in the finals of ATP 500-level tournaments.

Most recently, in Barcelona the last two years.

Finally. he broke the duck with a masterful week – fueled by a new racquet – that gave him the Dubai title with a win over Félix Auger-Aliassime in the final.

He’s back in the top 10.

And Tomas Machac has won his first career ATP Tour title.

(Santiago is 2 hours ahead of ET; Dubai 9 hours ahead and Acapulco an hour behind)
