Martín Landaluce continues to show that he has not yet reached his tennis roof and this Sunday he got his second ATP Challenger in Orleans, France.
The Madrid of only 19 years signed a triumph of comeback after two hours and 20 minutes of play against the Belgian Raphael Collignon by 6-7 (8), 6-3 and 6-3. The great week of Spanish will release its best location and for the first time it will remain in the Top 120 of the PIF ATP Rankings, climbing until No. 112 of the live ladder, on the border of its irruption among the 100 best tennis players in the world.
The 2025 season of Landaluce has had some ups and downs, being able to classify for its first main picture of a 1000 Masters in Cincinnati, but could not have the necessary continuity to climb on the Tour.
However, on the court, Landaluce again made clear his modern tennis that adapts to the different situations of a game: after a disputed first set in which he let a set point pass, the Spanish raised his level to be the main protagonist of the encounter and close two sets with solidity.
Meanwhile, after its coronation in France it has been in No. 5 of the Race to Jeddah, leaving in good position to sign its first classification directly to the Next Gen ATP Finals present by Pif, which begin on December 17 in Jeddah among the best eight sub-20 of the year, after the last season was as a substitute.
