Mariano Navone and Jakub Mensik: Jakub Mensik leads 1–0 across 1 recorded meeting.
Jakub Mensik needed every one of 109 minutes and a 13-11 fifth-set tiebreak to outlast Mariano Navone, and the difference came down to who cashed in on return: Navone converted 5 of 16 break points (31%) to Mensik's 3 of 14 (21%), keeping this first career meeting alive across five sets. The Czech's serve carried him — 11 aces and 75% of first-serve points won — but he leaked 85 unforced errors and coughed up the second and fourth sets 6-2 and 6-1 as the momentum kept flipping. Navone, far steadier off the ground with 54 errors and an 81% first-serve rate, simply ran out of break chances in the breaker.
