Titles for Stefanos Tsitsipas, Andrey Rublev, Daniel Merida, Barbora Krejcikova and Mayar Sherif. Full report plus all the ATP beef that's fit to post BELOW.
Here's the beef.
Stefanos Tsitsipas ended a 16-month title drought by defeating Belgium's Raphael Collignon 6-4, 6-7 (3), 6-3 to win the Swiss Open Gstaad, becoming the first Greek champion in the tournament's history and capturing the 13th ATP title of his career.
Lucas Miedler and Marc Polmans captured the Swiss Open Gstaad doubles title by defeating Marcelo Demoliner and Robert Galloway 6-3, 6-4 in Sunday's final, completing the tournament without dropping a set.
Andrey Rublev reclaimed the Bastad title with a commanding 6-1, 6-3 victory over defending champion Luciano Darderi, capturing his 19th ATP singles crown and ending the Italian's 11-match winning streak at the Swedish clay-court event.
And while the Italian stallion threw repeated temper tantrums during the match, he was feeling more playful when all was said and done.
Sadio Doumbia and Fabien Reboul won the Swedish Open doubles title by defeating Theo Arribage and Francisco Cabral 6-3, 6-4 in the final.
Daniel Merida won his first ATP Tour title by defeating Damir Dzumhur 6-2, 5-7, 6-2 in the Croatia Open Umag final.
Adam Pavlasek and Patrik Rikl won the Croatia Open Umag doubles title by defeating David Stevenson and Marcus Willis 6-3, 4-6, [10-6], earning Pavlasek his first ATP Tour title and Rikl his third.
Barbora Krejcikova spoiled hometown favorite Maria Sakkari's bid for a title on home soil, rallying for a 7-6 (5), 6-3 victory to win the inaugural Athens Open and capture her ninth WTA singles crown.
Mayar Sherif claimed the Iași Open title in Romania by defeating Paula Badosa in the final after the Spaniard retired because of illness while trailing 6-4, 4-0, giving the Egyptian her second WTA singles title.
Elsewhere around the net ...
Australia's Bernard Tomic, 33, claimed the Lincoln Challenger title by rallying past Estonia's 23-year-old Mark Lajal 4-6, 7-6 (4), 7-6 (3) in a dramatic final, saving a championship point to secure his biggest title since 2018. The victory ended an eight-year Challenger title drought for the former world No. 17 and lifted him to No. 170 in the ATP rankings.
