Flavio Cobolli and Zachary Svajda: Flavio Cobolli leads 1–0 across 1 recorded meeting.
Flavio Cobolli needed all 198 minutes to put away Zachary Svajda in their first career meeting, the return game carrying him through a four-set slog. Cobolli converted 7 of 17 break chances to Svajda's 3 of 8, and won 52% of second-serve return points to the American's 42% — the pressure that cracked Svajda's hold even as the match dragged into back-to-back tiebreaks. Svajda nicked the third on a 7-3 breaker, but his five double faults and a 59% break-point save rate left too many doors open. Cobolli closed the fourth-set tiebreak 7-5, 57 winners to 36 the difference late.
