🎾 ATP Bastad – Quarterfinal Preview
Jesper de Jong vs Tallon Griekspoor
🎢 Jesper de Jong has ridden a wave of extremes this season (22–23 overall) but comes into this quarterfinal red-hot. After deep Challenger runs and upset wins over Davidovich Fokina, Shevchenko, and Sonego, he’s now on a 4-match win streak in Bastad without dropping a set. His clay form (16–13) is steady, and he already beat Griekspoor indoors earlier this season in Montpellier.
🦾 Griekspoor, the top-ranked Dutchman, owns a title on clay this year (Marrakech) and has proven himself against solid opponents like Carreno Busta and Darderi. Though his post-Roland Garros form has dipped, his comeback win over Pellegrino in R16 shows grit. He’ll be extra motivated here, aiming to avenge his earlier loss to De Jong.
💥 A Dutch duel with firepower. Griekspoor brings the bigger game and experience edge, but De Jong has momentum and confidence—and the belief he can win this matchup again.
