Stefanos Tsitsipas: Greek enters Swiss Open with first ATP title in 16 months

Stefanos Tsitsipas won his first ATP title in 16 months after beating Rafael Collignon in the Swiss Open final.

The former world number three and two-time Grand Slam finalist defeated the Belgian 6-4 6-7 (3-7) 6-3 to win the 13th ATP title of his career.

Tsitsipas’ last title was the Dubai Open in March 2025, where he defeated Felix Auger-Aliassime in straight sets.

“I want to start by mentioning how amazing today’s final was,” said the Greek, who will rise from 85 to 55 in the updated world rankings on Monday.

“It’s been a long time so it means a lot to me.”

Tsitsipas impressed on serve in Sunday’s final in Gstaad, hitting four aces and no double faults.

He won 21 of 29 of his second serve points and saved two break points from four encounters.

It was the 27-year-old’s sixth career clay court title, most notably winning the Monte Carlo Masters in 2021, 2022 and 2024.

The 24-year-old Collignon, ranked 42nd in the world, was competing in his first ATP final.
