Hot Start
The Demon Deacons have opened the 2026 campaign with a combined 31-11 record in singles and 16-7 mark in doubles. Sophomore Joaquin Guilleme leads the team with eight singles wins to just one loss. Additionally, 10 different Wake Forest players have already recorded at least one win with six recording multiple.
Last Time Out (vs. TCU)
Thanks to an incredibly clutch, three-set victory on court one from senior DK Suresh Ekambaram, the No. 3-ranked Wake Forest men's tennis team wrapped up its stint in Waco with a 4-3 win over No. 5 TCU Sunday afternoon inside Hawkins Indoor Tennis Center.
The Demon Deacons (8-2, 0-0 ACC) have now won three-consecutive matches against the Horned Frogs for the first time in program history and brought the series record to 6-7 dating back to 1988. Additionally, Wake Forest has posted an 11-1 record in Texas since the start of last season after winning two national titles in the Lone Star State in 2025, both over TCU.
Headed into singles down 1-0, the Deacs bounced back with wins on courts one, four, five and six.
Sophomore Joaquin Guilleme finished his trip to Texas with a perfect 3-0 record following his 6-3, 4-3 (ret.) win over Albert Pedrico Kravtsov on court five. He is now 17-1 overall in dual matches for the Demon Deacons and leads the team with eight victories this campaign.
A few minutes later, freshman Dominick Mosejzcuk continued the perfect start to his career as he returned to the lineup and defeated Roger Pascual Ferra in straight sets, 6-4, 6-4. Of note, freshmen are a combined 12-3 for the Deacs this season.
With the match level at 2-2, sophomore Charlie Robertson stepped up and came away with a clutch second-set tiebreak victory and defeated Oliver Bonding, 6-4, 7-6(4) for his third win of the season. Not long after, the Bears tied it again and the match would once again come down to Suresh on court one.
All three sets between Suresh and TCU's Duncan Chan went to a tiebreaker with the Demon Deacon ultimately prevailing in the first and third. It marked his first win of the spring in the Old Gold & Black and it came exactly a week removed from his heroics for India in the Davis Cup.
Rankings Update
The Demon Deacons were tabbed as the fourth-best team in the nation in the latest ITA poll after spending most of last season in the top spot, and is one of five ACC teams ranked inside the top 25 to open the outdoor season.

The Bresky Era
Since arriving at Wake Forest, head coach Tony Bresky has enjoyed a highly-decorated career, winning ITA National Coach of the Year in 2018 and 2025, along with garnering ACC Coach of the Year honors in 2013, 2016 and 2025.
Bresky led Wake Forest to its first-ever national title in 2018, after accumulating a 33-2 mark and most recently led one of the most dominant seasons in collegiate tennis history as the Deacs won 40 matches en route to capturing the ACC regular season title, ITA Indoor Title and NCAA Championship.
Individually, Bresky has coached two ACC Players of the Year (Noah Rubin and Melios Efstathiou), along with 40 All-ACC selections and 12 ITA Singles All-Americans.
During his tenure at Wake Forest, Bresky has amassed 376 wins. Of note, early in 2023 with a victory over No. 6 Tennessee, Bresky became the winningest coach in program history, surpassing the legendary Jim Leighton. Most recently against Texas, he reached the 400-career win mark.
Wake Forest's Team Success Under Bresky
Bresky's teams have also excelled in the classroom during his stint in Winston-Salem, as he's coached 27 All-ACC Academic Team honorees and an ACC Men's Tennis Scholar Athlete of the Year.
