Nicolas Mejia Player Overview
Nicolas Mejia arrives at this match on a five-match losing streak. His three most recent defeats came against Liam Draxl, Tallon Griekspoor and Hugo Blanchet (the last of which ended with a retirement). Despite a solid hold rate of 81% and a first-serve percentage of 64%, his overall set-winning rate is just 39%, and he has not won a set to love in his last ten matches. He averages just over 23 games per match, though he frequently drops second sets. Double faults and inconsistency on return make it difficult for him to get results against opponents at the level of Chun Hsin Tseng.
