Despite suffering a particularly humiliating loss to Matteo Berrettini in the Gstaad Open quarterfinal, Dominic Thiem was back in his groove in this tournament’s opening match. In his opening round of the Generali open the former world number three defeated Alexander Shevchenko 6-4, 6-2 in just over an hour and a half. Before breaking Shevchenko in the first set to take a 5-3 lead, Thiem did waste a lot of break points. He then lost his service after leading 2-1 in the second set. However, those were the only two errors in his performance, as Thiem went on to win the next four games to seal the match.

Sebastian Ofner entered his opening match against Richard Gasquet as a 7/5 underdog after qualifying for the tournament with back-to-back victories in straight sets. The majority knew the outcome of the match after he was destroyed in the first set. However, in the end, Ofner’s tenacity shone through as he fought off all of Gasquet’s attacks to secure a 1-6, 7-5, 7-5 victory and set up this second-round encounter. Ofner played against Gasquet for two hours and 36 minutes, breaking serves eight times in total, but it was the timing that decided the match. Ofner rallied twice after falling behind by breaks in the second and third sets to win the match on his fourth match-point.
