Head To Head First Meeting.
In a highly-anticipated first meeting on Court 6, the Polish sensation Hubert Hurkacz is set to take on the rising star from Brazil, Joao Fonseca. Hurkacz, who is the top Polish men’s player in history, has had a stellar career highlighted by his year-end career-high ranking of No. 9 in 2021 and 2023, as well as reaching a career-high of No. 6 in August 2024. One of his standout moments was at the 2021 Wimbledon, where he entered on a 6-match losing streak but managed to reach his first Grand Slam semifinal by defeating the legendary Roger Federer in straight sets.
Hurkacz has also had success at the ATP Masters 1000 level, notably upsetting 5 seeds to win the 2021 Miami title and saving a championship point to win the 2023 Shanghai title. Additionally, he has reached the semifinals at events like Paris, Miami, and Cincinnati, as well as capturing doubles titles in Paris and Miami. His dominance was further highlighted by defeating World No. 1 Medvedev to win his 5th ATP Tour singles title in Halle.
On the other side of the net, Joao Fonseca has been making waves in the tennis world as well. The reigning Next Gen ATP Finals champion, Fonseca broke into the Top 100 of the ATP Rankings 16 months after becoming junior World No. 1 in September 2023. He achieved a career-high ranking of No. 59 in March 2025, after an impressive run to the third round of the ATP Masters 1000 event in Miami.
Fonseca’s breakthrough came at the 2025 Buenos Aires, where he captured his first tour-level title at just 18 years old, becoming the youngest South American champion since Perez-Roldan in 1987 and the youngest Brazilian champion in the Open Era. His talent was further showcased at the 2025 Australian Open, where he scored his biggest career win over World No. 9 Rublev in his Grand Slam main draw debut.
The stage is set for an exciting clash between the seasoned Hurkacz and the young gun Fonseca. With both players bringing a mix of experience and raw talent to the table, tennis fans can expect a thrilling battle on Court 6 as these two players look to make their mark in this first-time meeting.
