Crazy match?
The two players have something quite unique in this tournament: they served a bomb on the second ball at a crucial moment (Bublik at 5-5 against Machac, Lehecka on match point against Khachanov)!
Apart from that, we can also say that both players are in good shape. We were waiting for the tournament where Lehecka would make a new breakthrough, and it may be this one. The conditions suit him perfectly, and what's more, he is successful. Facing Bublik, it's always the same puzzle: will his power and aggressive profile get the better of the Kazak's defensive malice? You know Bublik, it serves fire (22 aces yesterday), and it defends fire in return. An attacker can enjoy it as long as he remains lucid to finish the points well without falling into the trap that Bublik sets for you. Facing Lehecka, I would have tended to say Bublik but when Jiri is good in a tournament, it can hurt. So it's up to the one who manages a little more than the other to impose his game. And there unfortunately, I don't have a crystal ball. Let's go see the odds when because there is a bet a little more obvious than the others 👇
