THE PREDICTION
World number eight Hubert Hurkacz overcame Jan-Lennard Struff in typically lengthy fashion, with the two hard-hitters going at it for nearly three hours before Hurkacz came through the last of three tiebreaks. World number 68 Christopher O’Connell will do well to try to make his opponent move as much as possible fewer than 24 hours after that slog, spending half as much time on court in victory over Maximilian Marterer, but a straight-sets defeat to Hurkacz in Stuttgart last summer does not bode well for his chances. Each of Hurkacz’s last three matches have seen three sets, and a remarkable eight tiebreaks out of nine, to suggest backing the Pole to win outright with at least one tiebreak in the match is a suitable combination.
TIP: HUBERT HURKACZ TO WIN (AND OVER 0.5 TIEBREAKS)
