Current Form:

World’s No.10 Alexander Bublik targets another prolific run at the Dubai Tennis Championships after reaching the semifinal of the 2026 Rotterdam Open. Bublik is kicking off a fresh campaign in the Middle East with an 11-2 record on the season. The Kazakh is winning 77 percent of his first serves and saving 69.7 percent of breakpoints in 2026. He’s also averaging 11.5 aces per match and 7-2 in tiebreakers this year.

After a quarterfinal run in Rotterdam, Tallon Griekspoor is one win away from clinching another final-eight stint at the 2026 ATP 500 Dubai. Griekspoor registered a straight-set win over Otto Virtanen 6-3, 6-4 in the first round. Ranked No.25 in the world, Griekspoor is winning 72 percent on his first serves but is only converting 35.7 percent of breakpoint chances in 2026. He’s also 1-4 in tiebreaker situations this year.
