The semi-final of Atlanta Open 2023 between Aleksandar Vukic and Ugo Humbert will take place on July 30.
Aleksandar Vukic secured a crucial victory over Christopher Eubanks, extending his dominant head-to-head record to five wins out of seven matches. Vukic had previously defeated Eubanks three times in 2023, reaching the finals in two Challenger tournaments. This win comes as a confidence boost for Vukic, considering Eubanks’ recent impressive form on the main tour, defeating top players like Tsitsipas and Norrie and winning a title in Mallorca. For Vukic, who has struggled against top-50 players this year, this victory is significant as he makes his first-ever appearance in the ATP event semifinals, just two months after entering the top 100 rankings. He will aim to continue the Australian success at ATP Atlanta, which has seen three Australian finalists in the last six editions.
Ugo Humbert ended Alex de Minaur’s nine-match winning streak in Atlanta, securing a hard-fought 7-6, 6-3 victory in the quarterfinals. Humbert had a tough start in the tournament, narrowly escaping defeat against Constant Lestienne earlier in the week. Throughout the year, he has faced challenges in making a significant impact on the main tour. However, his recent performances in the United States show an improvement in form. Last week, he reached the quarterfinals in Newport but was defeated by the eventual champion, Adrian Mannarino, in the semifinals. Humbert’s victory over the defending champion de Minaur is a notable achievement and indicates his potential to make a mark in the tournament.
