Yannick Kickmann

Generally rather comfortable in these kinds of conditions, we expect Hanfmann to be a tough player to beat this week!

I'm not a big fan of Hanfmann but it must be recognized that he knows how to play at altitude and can put on impressive matches at times. His kick is monstrous, it will go up super high and Dzumhur will have to restart from afar. Already he is small, he will be bothered and Hanfmann will have every interest in following to the net to get free points, he knows how to do it. I find the German decent this season, on grass it was less good but we are back in a tournament that he appreciates! Finalist in 2017, comfortable with this high bounce and against an opponent below him in addition.. Especially since Dzumhur has not played since his retirement at Wimbledon, he withdrew from a challenge last week and remains delicate with his abs apparently. For me things are clear in this first round!
