A month after a controversial line call derailed his match against Petr Brunclik in Poznan, Sumit Nagal gets his redemption. Nagal fought off the Czech home favorite and 2024 Aussie Open Junior Doubles runner-up in a gritty clay-court battle, coming back from 0-3 down in Set 2, to reach the QFs.

Up next: Another local threat, Martin Krumich (ATP 261) on Friday for a place in the SFs.
