Tokyo R1 previews and predictions: Vacherot vs. Blockx, Etcheverry vs. Tsitsipas
First-round competition in Tokyo gets started on Wednesday, when No. 8 seed Valentin Vacherot faces a tough opening match against Alexander Blockx. Qualifier Stefanos Tsitsipas tries to keep his productive week going against Tomas Martin Etcheverry.
(8) Valentin Vacherot vs. Alexander BlockxVacherot and Blockx will be going head-to-head for the first time in their careers when they clash in round one of the Japan Open on Wednesday. The Asian swing is pretty much where it all began last year for Vacherot, who qualified for the Shanghai Masters main draw and eventually went all the way to the title with wins over Alexander Bublik, Holger Rune, and Novak Djokovic along the way. Twelve months later, the 27-year-old Monegasque is the No. 18 player in the world and seeded at one of the best ATP 500 tournaments on the calendar.Blockx has enjoyed his own surge up the rankings, with 20 of his 26 career main-tour match victories coming this season. Such success has propelled the 21-year-old Belgian to No. 28 in the world. The best result of Blockx’s professional life came at the recent U.S. Open, where he advanced to the quarterfinals before retiring against Karen Khachanov with a leg injury. Three weeks off should be just what the doctor ordered for Blockx, who is facing an opponent who has endured his own physical problems during the second half of 2026. Assuming Blockx is 100 percent, he has a good chance to win this one.Pick: Blockx in 3 #ays-poll-id-6abbe9bf81df5.box-apm { width: 600px; margin: 0 auto !important; border-style: ridge; border-color: #0f7004;
