Playing Style & Strengths
Buse is a right-hander with a two-handed backhand, listed at 1.83m. He grew up in Peru and moved to Barcelona to train, and his game is not limited to clay. His first ATP title came on the Hamburg clay, while Winston-Salem was his first hard-court title at ATP Tour or Challenger level. He has shown he can last in long matches. In Hamburg he won seven matches in a row from qualifying, and the final went to a deciding set. At the 2026 US Open he beat Marcos Giron in five sets, winning the fifth 6-1.
Buse Betting Tips & Predictions
Buse’s two titles came on outdoor clay and outdoor hard courts, so surface alone should not put you off him. Form is the bigger question. Since winning Winston-Salem he has won one of four tour-level matches, losing to Benjamin Bonzi at the US Open, Quentin Halys in Beijing and Zizou Bergs in Shanghai. Prices on a top-35 player tend to lean on ranking. His results since late August suggest caution until his level returns.
