Carlos Taberner Player Overview
Carlos Taberner also has 5 wins in his last 10 matches, but his results are less consistent: losses and wins alternate. At this tournament the Spaniard has advanced through two rounds, defeating Juan Bautista Torres and Marco Topo, after an early exit in San Marino the previous week. In terms of service games won percentage (62%), Taberner edges his opponent slightly, and his first serve percentage stands at 65%. However, his set-winning rate is lower - only half of the completed sets go his way, and his number of straight-set wins is below Møller's (4 straight-set victories against 5). His break-point conversion is slightly more modest (42%), which could matter in extended rallies.
