Former world junior No. 3 Zsombor Piros is enjoying his most profitable season within the professional ranks and continued his fine form with a third ITF World Tennis Tour title in as many months at M25 Ricany.

Piros, who was crowned boys’ champion at the 2017 Australian Open Junior Championships, defeated Israel’s Yshai Oliel in the final of the Czech Republic event, building on his success at M25 Grodzisk Mazowiecki last month.

The 21-year-old, who made his Davis Cup debut for Hungary in 2018, has now topped the podium on three occasions this season having also triumphed at M15 Doboj in July, making it the most trophy-laden campaign of his fledgling career.

Australia’s Rinky Hijikata also snared a third ITF World Tennis Tour crown of 2021 with victory at M25 Sierre, where he dispatched Oliver Crawford of the United States in straight sets in the final.

The 20-year-old, who reached a career-high No. 9 in the junior world rankings in December 2018, has also chalked up successes at M15 Edwardsville and M15 Monastir this term.

Elsewhere, there were first titles of the campaign for Spain’s Oriol Roca Batalla and Antoine Escoffier of France, as they prevailed at M25 Oviedo and M25 Bagneres-De-Bigorre respectively.

For Roca Batalla, it was a triumph on home soil and a first anywhere since 2019 when he claimed three ITF World Tennis Tour titles in total. Escoffier, on the other hand, tasted success last year at M15 Monastir.

Elsewhere, there was a raft of tournaments at $15k level, which saw Fabian Marozsan, Renta Tokuda, Alessandro Ragazzi, Gergely Madarasz, Illya Beloborodko, Guy Den Ouden and Timo Stodder lift silverware.
