Alexander Blockx<\/a>, Dino Prizmic<\/a>, Nicolai Budkov Kjaer<\/a>, and Rafael Jodar<\/a>, who all competed at the Next Gen ATP Finals presented by PIF<\/a> last month, moved to within one victory of qualifying for the Australian Open<\/a> main draw on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Blockx won an ATP Challenger in Canberra last week and has yet to drop a set in qualifying. The 20-year-old Belgian defeated Alex Molcan<\/a> 6-1, 6-1 to move closer to competing in the main draw of the major for the first time.<\/p>\n

Croatian Prizmic, who won a set against Novak Djokovic<\/a> in the main draw at the AO in 2024, downed Gustavo Heide<\/a> 7-5, 6-2, while Norwegian Budkov Kjaer beat Australian James McCabe<\/a> 4-6, 6-3, 7-6(6). Budkov Kjaer has never competed in the main draw at a major.<\/p>\n

Spaniard Jodar won three ATP Challenger titles in the second half of 2025, climbing from outside the Top 900 in the PIF ATP Rankings to a career-high No. 150. The 19-year-old brushed past Luxembourg\u2019s Chris Rodesch<\/a> 7-6(10), 6-3.<\/p>\n

Pierre-Hugues Herbert<\/a>, who won the Australian Open doubles title in 2019 with Nicolas Mahut<\/a>, eliminated Gonzalo Bueno<\/a> 7-5, 6-2. Coleman Wong<\/a> was a quarter-finalist at the tour-level event in Hong Kong last week and maintained his good form with a 7-6(7), 6-0 win against Pablo Llamas Ruiz<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Luca Van Assche<\/a> moved past Daniil Glinka<\/a> 6-3, 6-0, while Dusan Lajovic<\/a> overcame Murphy Cassone<\/a> 7-5, 6-3. The 35-year-old Serbian Lajovic reached the fourth round in 2021.<\/p>\n
