This will be the first-ever meeting between Elias Ymer from Sweden and Sumit Nagal from India at the tour level. However, they have faced each other twice in Challenger tournaments before, with Ymer emerging victorious on both occasions. In Lyon CH (France) on clay, Ymer defeated Nagal 6-1, 6-1, and in Split CH (Croatia) in a qualifying match, Ymer won 6-2, 6-4.

Elias Ymer, age 28, is currently ranked No. 202 in the world with a career-high ranking of No. 105. In 2015, he broke into the top 200 and achieved his career-high ranking in 2018.

He reached his first ATP Tour quarterfinal at the 2016 Gstaad and his first ATP Tour semifinal at the 2022 Pune as a qualifier.

Ymer made history in 2015 as a teenager by becoming the second man on record to qualify for all four Grand Slam events in a calendar year, a feat previously accomplished by Dancevic in 2011. He also won the 2016 Stockholm doubles title alongside his brother Mikael, with whom he made his team debut as the 954th-ranked wild card, defeating Pavic/Venus 6-1, 6-1. Ymer achieved a career-high No. 5 ranking in the junior rankings, highlighted by his run to the 2012 Orange Bowl final, where he lost to Djere.

Ymer has an extensive history at the Bastad Tennisstadion, participating in the tournament a record-breaking 11 times. He has reached the second round four times and has recorded three top 100 wins at this venue. Notably, he defeated No. 52 Kukushkin in 2014, No. 88 Monteiro in 2019, and No. 62 Altmaier in

2022.

On the other hand, Sumit Nagal, age 26, is currently ranked No. 68 in the world, which marks his career-high ranking to date. He earned his first ranking point at the age of 16 in 2013 and broke into the top 200 in 2019. Nagal achieved his top 100 ranking in February 2024 after winning his fifth Challenger title in Chennai. He made his ATP Tour debut at the 2018 Pune as a qualifier and his Grand Slam debut at the 2019 US Open, where he faced five-time champion Federer in the first round. He reached his first ATP Tour quarterfinal at the 2021 Buenos Aires.

Nagal earned his first tour-level wins at the 2019 Davis Cup against Pakistan and claimed his first Grand Slam win at the 2020 US Open. This will be Nagal’s debut appearance at the Bastad Tennisstadion. He boasts a 119-104 record in Challenger tournaments, including five titles at Bangalore in 2017, Buenos Aires in 2019, Rome and Tampere in 2023, and Chennai in 2024.

In his junior career, Nagal peaked at No. 23 in the world rankings in 2015 and had an 88-53 record. He secured victories over future top 10 players such as Berrettini, Hurkacz, Shapovalov, and Tiafoe. Nagal ended his junior career by winning the 2015 Wimbledon boys’ doubles title with Ly.

Nagal aims to achieve four tour-level wins in a single season for the first time in his career after posting three such victories in 2021, 2023, and 2024. He has reached the second round at the Australian Open, Marrakech, and ATP Masters 1000 Monte-Carlo this year, and he hopes to continue his success at the Bastad Tennisstadion.
