Sebastian Ofner vs Tommy Paul prediction

Sebastian Ofner advanced to the second-round of Wimbledon for the first time in eight years as his opponent Hamad Medjedovic retired. Ofner had taken the first set in a very tight tiebreak and was then 3-1 up in the second when the Serb decided to call it quits due to injury. The Austrian had put in a strong serving performance up to that point, winning 90% of his first serve points and conceding just one break point.

His opponent will be Tommy Paul in round two after the American comfortably got past Johannus Monday to get his campaign off and running. It was a very straightforward 6-4 6-4 6-2 win for the 13th seed and his first victory on grass this season after his early loss at Eastbourne last week. 

They’ve played on one previous occasion, thought it took place on hard court. Paul easily defeated Ofner 6-3 6-0 in the second-round of the 2023 Shanghai Masters. The American will need to be wary of Ofner’s serve early on, but he has the return game and the consistency to make it through.

Sebastian Ofner vs Tommy Paul tip: Tommy Paul to win 3-0
