Adolfo Daniel Vallejo and Chris Rodesch each capped back-to-back ATP Challenger title runs on Sunday. Vallejo, 21, triumphed in Concepcion, Chile while the 24-year-old Rodesch won in Oeiras, Portugal.
Vallejo, who finished the 2025 season by lifting the trophy at the Guayaquil Challenger, has built on that form with victories in Itajai, Brazil and now Concepcion, where he overcame home favourite Alejandro Tabilo 6-2, 1-6, 6-1 in the Dove Men+Care Concepción final.

The Paraguayan is inching closer towards his Top 100 debut, currently at a career-high No. 104 in the PIF ATP Rankings. Vallejo is a five-time Challenger champion.
Rodesch, a former standout player at the University of Virginia, triumphed at the Oeiras Indoor 2. The Luxembourger ousted Daniil Glinka 6-3, 7-5 in the final to claim consecutive titles in Portugal. Following his unbeaten two-week stint, Rodesch climbed 71 spots to a career-high No. 138.
“I don’t think before a tournament you will think that you will win 10 matches. You always try to win the next one. It just kept going and I won 17 out of 18 sets here. I’m just really happy,” Rodesch said.
Svajda downs Korda to win at home
Hometown hero Zachary Svajda dropped just one set all week en route to winning the San Diego Open, where he ousted former No. 15 Sebastain Korda 6-4, 7-6(5) in the final. Svajda, a native of San Diego, is up to No. 109 in the PIF ATP Rankings.
Van Assche rallies to Quimper title
Frenchman Luca Van Assche returned to the winner’s circle on home soil at the Open Quimper Bretagne Occidentale. The 21-year-old, who reached a career-high No. 63 in 2023, rallied from a set down in the final to defeat Remy Bertola 3-6, 6-1, 7-5. Van Assche is a five-time Challenger champion.
