Humbert Impressive after Layoff
Ugo Humbert has reached two finals in 2026, losing in Adelaide and Eastbourne. He has hardly played since losing to Zizou Bergs in the first round at Wimbledon.
The Frenchman lost three straight matches on the hard court swing before pulling out of the US Open due to a back injury.
Humbert was impressive in his return to action in Tokyo, thrashing Brandon Nakashima 6-3 6-2 in 70 minutes. He won 100% of his 1st serves, 74% of his 2nd serves and didn’t give up a break point.
Lehecka Slips Out of the Top 20
Jiri Lehecka lost to Jannik Sinner in the Miami final but has reached one semi-final since, on grass in Stuttgart.
The Czech recently hired Frederic Fontang as his new coach but it is yet to bear fruit, unable to get to a quarter-final on the hard court swing.
The 24-year-old dropped out of the Top 20 as a result but was on fire at the Davis Cup, beating Ben Shelton and Learner Tien in straight sets.
Lehecka spent over three and a half hours on court in his opener in Tokyo, getting past Zizou Bergs 6-3 6-7 6-3.
