Top 5 Comebacks on the 2025 ATP Tour: How Fokina Lost Both Titles!

The season review is still underway; today, let's take a look at the five biggest comebacks on the 2025 ATP Tour. When it comes to comebacks, they have always been some of the most thrilling moments in sports. See here:

Delray Beach Final

Serbian star Kecmanovic, who once shone brightly a few years ago, has fallen into a slump in recent seasons without any titles. This time, he defeated Davidovich Fokina 3-6, 6-1, 7-5 in a tough battle. Particularly in the final set, he faced a 2-5, 15-40 deficit but saved two championship points in a row to complete the comeback. His fighting spirit somewhat pays tribute to his elder compatriot Djokovic.

Paris Masters Quarterfinal

After finishing runner-up at the Australian Open earlier this year, Zverev struggled with inconsistent results, except for winning his hometown Munich title. However, he showed some highlights at the Vienna Open and Paris Masters at the end of the year. Especially against his longtime rival Medvedev, he won 2-6, 6-3, 7-6(5). Trailing 4-5 in the final set, he staged a comeback to end a five-match losing streak against him. His emotional celebration after the win showed how much it meant to the German.

Houston

Brooksby saved match points in three matches on his way to claim his first career title.

The American had won the Best Newcomer award several seasons ago but was plagued by injuries, causing an on-and-off playing status and delaying his first title. At his home tournament this time, he finally seized the chance, saving match points in three different matches, making this victory highly valuable.

Buenos Aires Quarterfinal

Brazilian youngster Fonseca defeated Navone 3-6, 6-4, 7-5, securing the most crucial win on his path to the title. Notably, he saved two consecutive match points and ultimately captured his first career title on his hometown rival’s turf.

Washington Final

Deminal truly deserves the title of "King of 500-level tournaments." Despite being in a difficult position, he came back from behind to beat Davidovich Fokina 5-7, 6-1, 7-6(3), saving three championship points on his opponent’s serve in the final game. The Spaniard’s weak performance in finals is frustrating; losing three finals this season, especially two from winning positions, leaves little hope for when his first career title will arrive.(Source: Tennis Home, Author: Luo Cheng Qiye)
