the ATP Rankings.<\/p>\n<p>Playing in his seventh ATP Tour career singles final, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/atp-tour\">Korda<\/a> \u2013 who has struggled with injury the past few years \u2013 defeated fifth seed Paul 6-4, 6-3 on the hard courts in Florida for his first title since August 2024.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[It means] a lot. I\u2019ve been through some stuff the past couple of months, years,\u201d the 25-year-old, who missed Wimbledon last year due to a stress fracture in his right leg \u2013 said. \u201cI\u2019ve lost a lot of finals and now to get one here in Delray \u2014 this is where I made my first ATP final \u2014 so it\u2019s like a full-circle day. I\u2019m just happy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Korda was unseeded for the tournament, but he took out second seed Casper Ruud in three sets in the fourth round and then defeated third seed Flavio Cobolli in straight sets to reach the final.<\/p>\n<h2>ATP Features<\/h2>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/atp-tour\/atp-rankings-could-carlos-alcaraz-overtake-roger-federer-rafael-nadal-most-ever-points\">ATP Rankings: Alcaraz now fourth for most points.
