Grass‑court tennis: Majchrzak reaches first ATP final, Jódar opens Queen’s Club draw

Polish player Kamil Majchrzak turned a two‑month slump into a breakthrough on the grass circuit, advancing to his first ATP final at the s'Hertogenbosch tournament in the Netherlands. He defeated two top‑10 opponents—Felix Auger‑Aliassime and Daniil Medvedev—without dropping a set after a first‑round victory over Otto Virtanen, and now aims to break into the world top 50.

Spanish newcomer Rafa Jódar, ranked No. 23 after a rapid rise from outside the top 600, received his first‑round opponent for the Queen’s Club Championships in London. He will face fellow debutant Ignacio Buse, with potential second‑round matchups against Brandon Nakashima or Marton Fucsovics and possible quarter‑final opponents such as Alex de Miñaur. Jódar’s entry marks a notable Spanish presence on the prestigious grass‑court event.
