Hot on the heels of his victory at the ATP Metz, with a straight sets victory in the Finals over Tokyo Olympics 2020 Bronze Medalist Pablo Carreno-Busta, Hubert Hurkacz returns to the San Diego Open as the fifth-seed. The World No. 12, who lost to Italy’s Andreas Seppi in the US Open earlier this month, will be looking to maintain form as he takes on Australia’s Alex Bolt.

Alex Bolt, storms into the First Round of the ATP 250 Event after successive victories in the qualifiers over American Olukayode Ayeni and South African Kevin Anderson. With a more inconsistent season performance and match record of 19-15 wins to losses, Bolt will be aiming for a second-round appearance again after the Columbus Challenger 35.

Hurkacz enters the clash with a career record of 124-58 on Hard Courts and 18-7 on Hard Courts in 2021. He boasts a 29-16 record across all surfaces in the season, compared to Bolt’s 19-15. Bolt on the other hand, has a career Hard Court record of 151-114, with a season record of 7-4.

Hurkacz is seeded and a successful run at the ATP Metz makes him the favourite for the match, however Bolt’s 2-0 record against him may indicate a potential upset.

Prediction: Hurkacz to win in 2 sets.
