Stockholm, Sweden – October 15, 2025 – The action intensifies at the BNP Paribas Nordic Open 2025 as the tournament enters Day 5 on Wednesday. Fans at the Kungliga Tennishallen are in for a packed schedule featuring a blend of singles and doubles matches across both Centre Court and Court 1. With several Round of 16 encounters and a few remaining first-round clashes, today’s matches promise drama, skill, and a touch of local pride.
Centre Court: Nordic Stars and Top Seeds Take the Spotlight
Play on Centre Court begins at 12:00 PM with doubles action. The experienced Czech-Polish pair Adam Pavlásek / Jan Zieliński will take on the young American duo Robert Cash / J.J. Tracy. Both teams are known for their aggressive net play and quick reflexes, setting the stage for an intense battle that could go down to the wire. With both pairs eager to make a deep run, this opening match is expected to deliver high-quality doubles entertainment.
Following the doubles encounter, attention turns to singles action. At not before 2:00 PM, Britain’s Arthur Fery takes on Lorenzo Sonego of Italy in a Round of 32 matchup. Sonego, known for his explosive forehand and emotional on-court presence, will look to assert his higher ranking against the young and fearless Fery, who continues to impress on the ATP Tour with his baseline consistency.
Next up, American Sebastian Korda faces Kamil Majchrzak of Poland in a Round of 16 clash. Korda, the son of former Australian Open champion Petr Korda, has been rediscovering his form after a steady season. Majchrzak, however, is no stranger to pulling off surprises and will be eyeing a deep run in Stockholm after recovering from injury setbacks in recent years.
The spotlight then shifts to the evening session. At not before 6:00 PM, former US Open champion Marin Čilić meets second seed Casper Ruud. The Norwegian star, a two-time Roland Garros finalist, enters as one of the tournament favorites. Ruud’s powerful forehand and calm temperament could make him a formidable challenge for Čilić, who will need his trademark serve and aggressive play to stay competitive.
To close the day’s play on Centre Court, Sweden’s own Leo Borg – son of tennis legend Björn Borg – will battle third seed Denis Shapovalov of Canada. This encounter has captured local attention, as the wildcard Borg aims to make a statement in front of the home crowd. Shapovalov, meanwhile, will seek to use his left-handed flair and attacking instincts to move confidently into the quarterfinals.
Court 1: Opportunities for Rising Talents
Action on Court 1 starts at 1:00 PM with Aleksandar Kovacevic from the USA facing Camilo Ugo Carabelli, the eighth seed from Argentina. Both players are known for their relentless baseline rallies, and this match could be one of the most physical of the day.
Following that, Dutch player Jesper de Jong meets Hungary’s Márton Fucsovics in another Round of 32 encounter. Fucsovics, with his experience and all-court versatility, will be favored to advance, but de Jong’s recent performances suggest he could pose a serious threat.
The final match on Court 1, starting not before 6:00 PM, brings doubles back into focus. Top-seeded Italians Simone Bolelli / Andrea Vavassori will face Swedish wildcards Erik Grevelius / Adam Heinonen. The Italians, both seasoned doubles specialists, will look to impose their chemistry and net play, while the young Swedish pair will rely on home support to inspire a potential upset.
