Head-to-head statistics Vukic - Holmgren
Aleksandar Vukic Player Overview
Vukic has won 6 of his last 10 matches - solid form for this stage of the season. At the Granby tournament he rolled through three rounds in a row, beating Liam Broady, Nicolas Arseno and Alexis Galarneau. Over that stretch, he's holding serve at around 77%, with a 60% first-serve rate. He's averaging 7.5 aces per match - enough to keep his service games under control even against aggressive returners. His matches tend to run long: over 23 games on average, with sets and games he wins distributed evenly - there is no clear bias toward straight-set wins or losses. This highlights his ability to maintain pace throughout the match.

August Holmgren Player Overview
August Holmgren has also won 6 of his last 10 matches, keeping a steady record and showing progress through the draw. The Dane came through three rounds at the Granby Challenger, beating Yosuke Watanuki, Aidan Mayo, and Justin Boulais. His serve is a weapon, hold rate around 82%, and he averages more aces per match than his opponent (8.1). First serve goes in at 65%, but the double fault rate is above average (7% per match), which could cause problems under pressure. Still, Holmgren wins just over half of all points played (51%), and his average of around 24 games per match points to a tendency for long sets, regardless of the scoreline.
Match Results: August Holmgren
Key factors
- Both players average over 23 games per match.
- Six wins from their last ten each - form is level.
- Games and sets won rates are close between them.
- Both have been solid on serve recently, holding at a high rate.
- No clear edge in ranking or form increases the likelihood of a long match.
Expected scenario
This semifinal looks even - no clear favourite. Both players hold serve comfortably and can grind through long sets with high game counts. A third set is possible but not certain; even two extended sets could be enough to push the total over. That's the logic behind the over.
⭐ Editor's Pick
Aleksandar Vukic and August Holmgren are in near-identical form: both hold serve consistently and play high-game-count matches. Tight first sets have been a pattern for each of them in this tournament, and with no clear edge between them, a long semi-final is the likely outcome. The bet: over 22.5 games.
