ATP Challenger Tour Results – Week of October 5th 2026

Five events on the Challenger Tour last week, and four very closely contested finals, highlighting the fine margins in this wonderful sport.

Laslo Djere, the former top 30 Serbian player, won his second Challenger title this year, as he tries to regain some form that saw him slip out of the top 200. He is now back at #136, and will be pushing hard until the end of year to regain that top 100 spot.

In an all-Brazil final in Chile, Joao Lucas Reis da Silva defeated compatriot Thiago Seybold Wild, to win his first title this year after two finals losses. In the live rankings, he now finds himself at a career high #183.

Croation 21-year-old, Matej Dodig finds himself at a career high #145 in the live rankings after his second Challenger title of his career in Braga.

Francesco Passaro played out a hard-fought final in Palermo, and managed to get over the line to win his first Challenger title in a couple of years. The former top 100 player now finds himself back inside 200, and maybe with some extra confidence to make a run towards the end of the season.

While in China, Alibek Kachmazov was a first-time winner on the ATP Challenger Tour following an epic final over Assie, Jay Friend. Two very close tie-breaks in sets 2 and 3 got him over the line.
