J. De Jong has yet to establish himself on the ATP tour, evidenced by a career baseline win percentage hovering around 50%. Currently, he stands in a declining trajectory, with recent performances failing to break the pattern of inconsistency. His serve has not been a reliable weapon, contributing to his struggles, particularly on hard courts where he has a modest track record.
His recent form reflects a stark reality, with only one victory in his last five matches. A notable defeat to J. Fonseca at Wimbledon, where he lost without winning a set, further underscores his current plight. With a draw against V. Gaubas fresh in his memory, De Jong will need to significantly raise his level to turn the tide in their rematch at Bastad.

V. Gaubas
Player Overview
V. Gaubas has maintained a competitive presence on the tour, with a career baseline win percentage around 52%. His current two-year form shows signs of stability, although recent results have been mixed. Gaubas's ability to hold serve effectively has been a hallmark of his game, particularly on clay, where he feels most comfortable.
In his last five matches, he has secured two wins, one of which came against D. Lajovic at Wimbledon, showcasing his potential to challenge more established players. However, a recent loss to F. Diaz Acosta raises questions about his resilience heading into this match. Facing De Jong again, Gaubas must capitalize on his opponent’s vulnerabilities to advance further in Bastad.
