It's a brand new week! In the match that concluded yesterday Beijing time, Burblik defeated Serenodoro to lift the championship trophy once again. This marks his second title of the season, following his victory at Halle. After this match, he has also unlocked an achievement: becoming an active player with ATP titles on three different surfaces.
So, besides the Kazakh player, who are the other players that have achieved this feat? They include Djokovic, Cilic, Dimitrov, Agut, Pouille, Tsitsipas, Cilic, Sonego, Medvedev, Tiafoe, Alcaraz, Hurkacz, Sinner, and Burblik.
As of now, Burblik has accumulated a total of 6 titles in his career, including 3 indoor hard court titles, 2 grass court titles, and 1 clay court title.
The specific distribution of titles is as follows: Montpellier 250 in 2022, Halle 500 in 2023, Antwerp 250 in 2023, Montpellier 250 in 2024, Halle 500 in 2025, and Gstaad 250 in 2025.
Speaking of the Kazakh player, the most memorable impression people have is undoubtedly his flamboyant personality and his powerful serve. He has repeatedly put on amusing performances during matches, making his games both entertaining and enjoyable.
However, this seemingly carefree attitude towards the game has made it difficult for him to break into the top tier of players. In the series of matches before this season, his performance was poor, and his ranking dropped continuously, to the point where he mentioned in a previous interview that he felt disheartened and considered leaving tennis, but ultimately his love for the sport revived his spirit.
This year at the French Open, he defeated various strong competitors to reach his first Grand Slam quarterfinal. Moving on to the grass season, he once again defeated a Russian player in the Halle final, having previously beaten Rublev two years ago and this year defeating Medvedev.
Yet, just when everyone expected this seeded player, ranked in the later stages of Wimbledon, to be a potential disruptor and dark horse this year, he surprisingly crashed out in the first round, leaving everyone astonished.
Indeed, Burblik is a highly talented player, and in this regard, his current world ranking seems a bit low; he has not fully realized his potential. On the other hand, he often displays a somewhat cynical attitude on the court, making him unpredictable.
Having reached the Grand Slam quarterfinals and become a champion on all surfaces this season, it is believed that his confidence will see a significant boost. What direction will this unique player's career take next? Feel free to leave your predictions!Source: Tennis Home, Author: Luo Chengqiye
