Hubert Hurkacz vs Marcos Giron prediction
It would be fair to suggest Marcos Giron does not particularly enjoy the match-up with Hubert Hurkacz.
The American trails 4-0 in their head-to-head but did push the Pole hard in their only previous meeting on outdoor hardcourts when he went down 4-6 7-6 4-6 in Tokyo two years ago.
Former world number six, Hurkacz is now at 71 and still some way form his best but he is close to improving on a troubled 2025 in terms of match wins and will be buoyed by his run to the round of 16 at Wimbledon.
The man nicknamed the Incredible Hurk is a major menace on a hardcourt when his serve is flowing and qualifier Giron will need to find a way to neutralise that to have a chance of breaking his duck in the one-sided head-to-head.
Most of their matches have been competitive so we anticipate a decent number of games with Hubi the likely outright pick given their history.
