🎾 ATP Gstaad – Round of 16 Preview
Alexander Shevchenko vs Alexander Bublik
🪨 Shevchenko finally broke a four-match ATP losing streak with a solid straight-sets win over Wawrinka, pushing his 2025 clay record to 17–14—his strongest surface this year. The altitude in Gstaad enhances his flatter strokes, but he’s 0–2 against Bublik and has struggled to close in their past encounters.
🧱 Bublik is in the best clay-court form of his career, posting a 15–6 record this season and reaching the French Open quarterfinals. His game—formerly erratic—is more measured in 2025, with improved discipline balancing out his creativity. Gstaad’s high bounce should favor his kick serve and explosive all-court shotmaking.
💥 Expect fireworks and finesse. Bublik has the edge in form and head-to-head, but Shevchenko’s confidence may be trending upward just in time to test him.
