Jan-Lennard Struff vs Botic van de Zandschulp prediction
Jan-Lennard Struff defeated Zsombor Piros and Nishesh Basavareddy in straight sets to make the main draw in Hong Kong. Last season began in very disappointing fashion for the German, though he did perform well at the US Open as he made it through to the round-of-16 after getting through the qualifying stages.
He goes up against Botic van de Zandschulp, who is ranked seven places higher at 75 in the world. There were highlights for the Dutchman in 2025 as he got a final in Winston-Salem, along with a semi-final in Kitzbuhel. However, he did suffer 11 first-round exits throughout the season and failed to qualify for tournaments such as the China Open and Paris Masters towards the end of the year.
Both players are evenly matched and rely on their powerful serving games, and that could lead to this going to three sets.
