Garin at home

Koepfer is the local but Garin is right at home in this tournament that he has already won!

A title, a defeat in the first round and a quarter-final, this is Garin's strange record in Munich. He seems inconsistent like the player, this season we are not on a great Garin but for several weeks he has been playing well again I think. Koepfer is also playing well this year, however his transition to earth is not good at the moment with two defeats in two matches. The German has only participated once in this tournament and he had hooked Struff, this season he arrives with better dynamics and should want to perform well in a tournament that he did not have the opportunity to play a lot! Match up level we start with a left-handed forehand diago from Koepfer on the solid backhand of Garin, the Chilean is good in this diago but Koepfer knows how to send long line and surprise. He also serves very well in certain matches and could have a lot of free points and simple/effective patterns. Garin will try to make him explode, do drop shots and be aggressive at times, the Chilean can do a little bit of everything. A difficult match!
