Head-to-head statistics Kumasaka - Sinclair
Takuya Kumasaka Player Overview
Takuya Kumasaka comes into the match in inconsistent form - 4 wins and 6 losses in his last 10 matches. In his three most recent tournaments he has consistently lost in the first round, falling to opponents without a fight for a place in the second round. His average percentage of games won is below half - this is reflected in his serve hold rate: he holds only half of his service games, which points to regular difficulties on serve. Despite occasional bright spells, Kumasaka frequently loses matches without winning a set (4 times in 10), and the average number of games in his matches is around 20. This level of performance shows a lack of consistency and gives reason to expect him to come under pressure even against opponents of a similar ranking.

Colin Sinclair Player Overview
Colin Sinclair is showing more confident form: he has 6 wins and 4 losses over his last ten matches. In qualifying at the current tournament he won two matches in a row and entered the main draw after a strong start. Statistically, Sinclair clearly outperforms his opponent in aces (6.2 per match) and wins more points on first serve - his first-serve win percentage is above the tournament average. Although the games-won percentage is similar for both players, Sinclair is more often involved in long matches - his average number of games played reaches nearly 30 per match, which points to a grinding character in most of his matches.
