Luka Mikrut Player Overview
Luka Mikrut is in decent form - seven wins from his last ten matches - though consistency is an issue: he takes the first set in only half his matches. His serve statistics are weaker than his opponent's: he holds just 75% of his service games, with a first-serve percentage of around 60%. In the current tournament Luka beat Robert Strombachs and Laszlo Djere, but neither match was dominant across the board. He averages 4.4 aces per match, fewer than Tom Gench, and his average of 18.4 games per match is also lower. This points to less resilience against stronger opponents.
