(5) Daniil Medvedev vs. (Q) Learner Tien

His efficiency was poor sufficient that he smashed a web digicam in anger. Medvedev ultimately squeaked by in 5 units, however his second-round opponent is much extra harmful than Samrej was–and if the Russian continues to play poorly, Learner Tien will take benefit.

Tien made headlines on the very finish of the 2024 ATP season, ending runner-up on the NextGen ATP Finals to Joao Fonseca. The American teenager earned his spot within the Aussie foremost draw the onerous means; he got here up by qualies.

(13) Holger Rune vs. Matteo Berrettini

He bagged three titles, however they had been 250s on clay and grass. Berrettini has a mixed 10 titles on the “natural” surfaces and none on onerous courts. That’s partly as a result of he’s damage inclined and often finds himself sidelined throughout hard-court swings.

The 21-year-old Dane has struggled with consistency in his younger profession, however he posted strong outcomes final yr and finds himself ranked thirteenth on this planet. Rune unexpectedly went 5 units within the first spherical in opposition to Zhizhen Zhang, so he may be extra susceptible than regular–however he has performed Berrettini sufficient to recommend that there’s a matchup concern for the Italian.
