    Alex Bolt Player Overview

    Alex Bolt arrives at this match having won four of his last ten, a run that points to inconsistent form. In the previous round he beat Semen Pankin, though before that he lost to Fabian Marozsan. Bolt holds serve in 84% of his service games, yet his overall games-won percentage stands at just 46%. Over this stretch he has lost five matches without taking a set, which affects his ability to compete with higher-ranked opponents and allows them to regularly clear key games thresholds. Despite a first-serve percentage of 69%, he has frequently struggled to maintain the initiative in the second set.
