Otto Virtanen swept past Maks Kasnikowski 6-2, 6-2 in Tampere, dominating from the baseline and on serve. The Finn broke four times, never lost his own delivery, and saved the only break point he faced across the match.
Virtanen seized control early in the opening set, breaking for 2-1 in game three and again for 4-1 in game five. The second set followed a similar script—a break to love in the first game and another at 0-3, leaving Kasnikowski with no route back. Virtanen won five consecutive games from 1-2 in the first set and four in a row in the second.
Virtanen's first-serve dominance was the decisive factor: he won 80% of points behind his first delivery (20/25), while Kasnikowski managed only 55% (17/31). Virtanen also fired five aces to Kasnikowski's none, and won 66% of second-serve return points.
