THE LOWDOWN

KAMIL MAJCHRZAK

Kamil Majchrzak is currently ranked at 105th following the June 2021 rankings. Majchrzak has played at 13 Grand Slam tournaments but has only reached the finals in seven of those tournaments. He hasn’t made it past the first round on four of those seven, either. The 25 year-old Polish player made it through the tournament qualification with three successive straight set victories in an impressive performance.

EMIL RUUSUVUORI

Emil Ruusuvuori’s has had an impressive start to his professional career. The 22 year-old from Finland only turned pro in 2018 but has already qualified for the finals the first round of the last seven Grand Slam tournaments. However, he has only made it to the second round of those Grand Slams on two occasions; one of them being at the 2020 US Open.

THE PREDICTION

Kamil Majchrzak in qualification for this event and he has won all three without dropping a set. However, that is unlikely to be a theme continues in the first round of the Open. Ruusuvuori has been playing across North America in the build up to the tournament so neither will have an advantage in terms of preparation and the Finnish player should be the favourite to overcome his Polish counterpart.
