However, he did win his only Challenger title at the Luedenscheid tournament, defeating van de Zandschulp in the finals. His tour-level debut was in the 2024 Davis Cup Finals Group Stage, where he faced defeats against van de Zandschulp and Fonseca. Collignon is currently coached by Belgium’s Davis Cup captain and former world number 38, Steve Darcis. He has an impressive ITF Tour record of 105-42 with 8 titles, 7 of which were won on clay at the M25 level (Arlon and Marburg in 2022, Koksijde, Hammamet, Angers, and Kassel in 2024) and 1 on hard courts at the M15 level in Monastir in 2022. It is worth noting that Collignon is seeking his first tour-level win in his ATP Tour debut and has a record of 1-5 against top 100 opponents across all levels. His only win against a top 100 opponent was against van de Zandschulp in the Luedenscheid Challenger final in August.

As for Marton Fucsovics, he is 32 years old and currently ranked as the world number 93. He reached his career-high ranking of number 31 in 2019, becoming the highest-ranked Hungarian player since Taroczy held the 29th position in 1983. Fucsovics has had notable accomplishments in his career, including defeating the two-time defending champion Wawrinka to win his first ATP Tour title in Geneva in 2018. He became the first Hungarian champion since Taroczy’s victory in Hilversum in 1982. Fucsovics also won his second title at the 2024 Bucharest tournament. At the 2021 Wimbledon, he rallied for a five-set win over the seventh-ranked Rublev, becoming the first Hungarian men’s quarter-finalist at that event since Asboth in 1948. Fucsovics has reached the fourth round of a Grand Slam on three other occasions, including a victory over the fifth-ranked Medvedev at the 2020 Roland Garros, which ended his 0-14 start in career matches against top 10 opponents. He showcased his talent early in his career by becoming the world number one junior after winning the 2010 Wimbledon boys’ singles title without dropping a set. Fucsovics is playing for the first time since retiring in the US Open first round due to a back injury. Since winning his second ATP Tour title in Bucharest in April, he has had a record of 1-7 at the tour level. Fucsovics is the only Hungarian player to have won a match in the tournament’s history, defeating D. Novak in the first round and the 20th-ranked Bautista Agut in the second round, but losing to L.
