Pablo Carreno Busta vs Quentin Halys prediction
Pablo Carreno Busta will hope to pick up his second tour-level win of the season as he competes in the main draw of the Qatar Open. The Spaniard had to qualify but was able to do so in comfortable fashion. He defeated Billy Harris in straight sets to ensure his place. The two-time US Open semi-finalist is ranked outside of the top 120 in the world.
He takes on Quentin Halys. The Frenchman is a lucky loser at the event, having lost in the second stage of qualifying as the top seed. Halys made a dominant start against Jan Choinski, but ended up losing in a deciding tiebreak, despite winning four more points than his opponent throughout the match.
Halys leads the head-to-head 1-0 after a straight sets win in the first-round of Indian Wells last year. The windier conditions could reduce the effectiveness of Halys’ serve, which may provide some hope for Carreno Busta in this match.
