Alejandro Davidovich Fokina played two finals in 2026 and won both, without dropping a set in either. He lifted his first trophy in Mallorca, and his second in Chengdu. According to api.tennis, the Spaniard has 27 wins and 16 losses this season, and he has won twice in the semifinals. On both occasions, victory in the semifinal led to the title.
Mallorca and Chengdu: two title matches
In Mallorca, his final opponent was Ethan Quinn, with a 7-6 6-3 scoreline. In Chengdu, Davidovich Fokina defeated Hurkacz 6-4 7-6. In both finals, one set went to a tiebreak: the opening set in Mallorca, the closing set in Chengdu. The Spaniard won his title matches this season through tight finishes rather than routs.
The road to the trophy in Chengdu was uneven. Juan Manuel Cerúndolo and Alexandre Müller were beaten in straight sets, 6-4 6-4 and 6-1 7-5. The toughest test came in the semifinal against Nikoloz Basilashvili: the Spaniard lost the first set 4-6, then won the next two, 6-4 6-3. That was the only set he dropped at the tournament.
Between the finals and after
According to rank.tennis, the Spaniard is 29th with 1680 points, while in the live rankings he moves up to 26th with 1930 points. In total, api.tennis lists 475 career wins for Davidovich Fokina.
Davidovich Fokina’s season is defined by two different threads. In title matches he has been flawless, while outside finals he has several times let slip matches he had started by winning the first set. Chengdu repeated the Mallorca script: once the Spaniard reached the decisive match, he finished the job.
