No. 4 seed from Great Britain Aidan McHugh has been dominant all tournament, losing four or fewer games in every match so far. He has dropped only 15 games while winning 36. He now faces qualifier Andreja Petkovic, who previously competed for Florida State and Duke. Petkovic advanced with a victory over Noa Vukadin, a Clemson junior from Zagreb, Croatia.
The lone American left in the draw, Duke’s Garret Johns earned a hard-fought three-set victory over Texas’ Michal Braswell, the 2022 champion and former No. 1 in NCAA singles. Johns led 5–3 in the final set before Braswell broke back and held to stay alive, but Johns surged again and ultimately secured the win in a decisive third-set tiebreak. Johns is aiming for his ninth career title. He has now spent a full year on the pro tour and enters this event riding the momentum of his highest ranking yet.
With the field now set for the semifinals, only four players remain—and one of them will emerge as our tournament champion.
