Zizou Bergs and Gabriel Diallo Set for ATP Final Showdown

’s-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands — Zizou Bergs, 26, and Gabriel Diallo, 23, have a golden opportunity this Sunday to claim their first ATP title on the grass courts of the tournament. Both players come into the final after suffering disappointment in previous championship matches — Bergs lost in January to Gaël Monfils in Auckland, while Diallo fell short in October 2024 in Almaty.

Both athletes are already guaranteed spots in the ATP Top 50 as a result of their performances this week, and a title would boost their careers significantly. Winning your first title is always a dream, and both players are eager to achieve this milestone.

The return to grass brings the promise of high-speed serves, with averages hitting 210 km/h. Bergs recently demonstrated impressive returns, defeating the powerful Reilly Opelka in the semi-finals, who had previously delivered 24 aces against Daniil Medvedev. To win, Bergs must maintain his performance against Diallo, who has also displayed exceptional serving skills with a total of 47 aces over four matches.

Diallo has shown determination, having recently bested Ugo Humbert in the semi-finals with a score of 6-3, 7-6(4). The Montreal native had previously trained with Humbert as doubles partners in this tournament. Now, he aims to secure victory over Bergs, having convincingly defeated him 6-1, 6-2 on clay earlier this season.

The final match-up is set for 14:30 local time on Center Court. As anticipation builds, both players are ready to showcase their skills and add a title to their resumes.

A win on Sunday would mean a significant breakthrough for either player, confirming their ascendance in the world of tennis.
