Here you can find the right Hubert Hurkacz vs Christopher O’Connell preview and other Stuttgart Open prediction
Hubert Hurkacz
The Polish tennis player has 20 wins and 12 losses this season, a far cry from his best numbers. Although he has managed to stay in good positions in the ATP rankings, Hurkacz has lacked titles, barely winning one in Marseille.
The clay-court season got off to a good start for Hubert, who managed to turn around an early 4-6 loss to Yosuke Watanuki. In the next two sets, Hurkacz won in tiebreak 7-6 7-6. The 26-year-old needs to be more solid if he wants to win his next match.
Christopher O’Connell
The 29-year-old continues to have one of his best seasons. Despite racking up almost as many losses as wins, his current record has helped him reach his highest ATP rakings ever. In fact, he continues to climb a few places regardless of the outcome of his next match.
Last round, O’Connell faced a tough challenge from Lorenzo Sonego, and after winning the first set in a lengthy tiebreak, the Australian easily prevailed in the second set.
Hurkacz vs O’Connell Head to Head
This will be the first time we will see Hubert Hurkacz take on Christopher O’Connell. In the previous season, both players had a similar performance playing in Grana. The Polish player won 5 matches and lost 2, while the Australian player had the same number of Victoria’s but lost 3 times.
