ATP roundup: Kamil Majchrzak keeps momentum going with win at Gstaad

 Kamil Majchrzak def. Terence Atmane 6‑4, 3‑6, 6‑2

Majchrzak picked up right where he left off after Wimbledon, firing 10 aces, winning 70 percent of his service points and converting three of five break chances. The Pole spent the spring rebuilding confidence on the Challenger circuit; Monday’s gritty clay‑court victory shows that the heavy topspin forehand he honed during that stretch is translating to ATP‑level rallies. Majchrzak finished with 25 winners against just 17 unforced errors and never faced a break point in the deciding set.

Ignacio Buse def. (5) Laslo Djere 7‑6(4), 1‑6, 6‑4

Buse, playing just his third tour‑level match, survived 2 hours 22 minutes of baseline warfare by ripping 34 forehand winners and saving seven of nine break points in the decider. Djere dominated the middle stanza but sprayed a forehand wide to give away the decisive break at 4‑5 in the third. Clay‑court upsets often ride serve‑plus‑one aggression—Buse’s 76 percent first‑serve success delivered exactly that.

Roman Burruchaga def. Dalibor Svrcina 6‑3, 6‑1

The Argentine won 74 percent of first‑serve points and broke four times in 79 minutes, booking a last‑16 clash with No. 3 seed Pedro Martinez. Burruchaga’s kick serve out wide in the ad court repeatedly set up run‑around forehands; he finished with a tidy nine‑to‑six winner/error ratio.

Arthur Cazaux def. Nikoloz Basilashvili 4‑6, 7‑5, 7‑6(5)

Cazaux needed nearly three hours to erase Basilashvili’s first‑set edge. The Frenchman capitalised on nine double faults and roared back from 2‑4 in the final‑set tiebreak with four straight all‑court points. His reward? A probable Wednesday duel against countryman Arthur Fils.

Dominic Stricker def. Pierre‑Hugues Herbert 4‑6, 6‑4, 6‑2

Fuelled by a packed alpine crowd, Stricker hammered 16 aces and won 82 percent of first‑serve points in sets two and three. He broke Herbert twice to close; the Swiss lefthander’s wicked cross‑court forehand did most of the damage.

Nordea Open (Båstad) — First‑Round Monday

Luciano Darderi def. Raphael Collignon 6‑2, 2‑6, 6‑2

Darderi’s roller‑coaster season continued, but the Marrakech champion steadied his backhand return in set three, saving two break points at 2‑2, 15/40 before reeling off the final four games. Darderi now owns a tour‑best 58 percent break‑conversion rate on red clay in 2025—a stat worth tracking for live‑bet opportunities.

Jesper de Jong def. William Rejchtman Vinciguerra 6‑3, 6‑2

De Jong pounded eight aces, won 90 percent of first‑serve points and never faced a break point in a 78‑minute rout of the Swedish wild card, son of former pro Andreas Vinciguerra. The Dutchman’s plus‑seven winner differential (23‑16) underscores his newfound aggression—an adjustment that has pushed his live‑ranking inside the top 120.
