Davidovich Fokina Is a Two-Time Semifinalist
After a poor 4-9 start to the season, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina struck form in Monte-Carlo.
The 22-year-old knocked out No. 1 Novak Djokovic, Marrakech champion David Goffin, Indian Wells champion Taylor Fritz and semifinalist Grigor Dimitrov en route his first ever ATP final, but couldn’t seal the ATP 1000 title after he went down to Stefanos Tsitsipas in the title clash.
Thanks to that run he heads to the Estoril Open with a 9-10 season record.
The Spaniard, who reached a career high ranking of 27 last week, is currently ranked No. 28 in the world. Clay brings the best out of him and a 55.8% win record on the surface is a testament of that.
Seeded fourth in the tournament, Davidovich Fokina has a solid 6-2 record in Estoril. He was a semifinalist in both his previous two appearances (in 2019 and 2021) but is yet to reach the final.
Can he reach the title clash this year?
