🎾 ATP Gstaad – Final Preview
Juan Manuel Cerúndolo vs Alexander Bublik
🔥 Cerúndolo is having a breakout week in the Swiss Alps. Riding a 4-match win streak, he stunned top seed Casper Ruud in the quarterfinals and reached his first ATP final since winning Córdoba in 2021. His loopy, lefty topspin has thrived in Gstaad’s altitude, and his 37–16 clay record this season reflects serious consistency. Wins over Struff, Goffin, and Buse show he’s earned this final the hard way.
🎯 Bublik has quietly built one of the most well-rounded seasons of his career, with titles on grass (Halle) and clay (Turin) and a French Open QF. This week, he hasn’t dropped a set or faced a break point—cruising past Cazaux, Comesaña, and Shevchenko. His high-velocity serve, paired with unpredictable shotmaking, becomes even more dangerous in altitude conditions.
💥 A classic contrast: Cerúndolo’s spin, patience, and rhythm vs. Bublik’s explosiveness and variety. If Cerúndolo can frustrate Bublik and elongate rallies, he’ll have a chance. But if Bublik stays composed and serves big, the altitude may tip this in his favor.
