The Tennis scene is full of ups and downs and the action is pretty much non-stop. This level of action leaves us with profound memoriess and the play has to be a high-quality day in and day out. The prize money for each tournament is high and the training is incredibly tenuous. In this tennis match-up, Holger Rune takes on Gijs Brouwer.

Holger Rune

Rune comes into the game after defeating Constant Lestienne 6-4, 6-4 to advance to the Round of 16. Rune was impressive with his first serve, capitalizing on 79% first serve. His return game was solid too as he eked out a 31-20 receiving points advantage to overcome a 32-35 service points disadvantage. The solid return game is becoming a hallmark for Holger. 19-year-old Rune has made a huge name for himself recently. He made it to the Fourth Round of the Australian Open before losing to Andrey Rublev. 

Gijs Brouwer

Brouwer comes into the contest after defeating Marc Andrea-Huesler 6-3, 7-5 to get through. He survived 8 Aces by Marc and nailed five Aces while having a distinct 84%-67% distinction on the first serve. He had a 24-18 receiving points edge while surveying out a 48-39 service points advantage, winning 11 service games compared to 8 by Marc. This was a huge win for Gijs who is ranked outside of 100. 

Expert Betting Tips

Rune is likely to advance here as one of the most enticing players in the world. Gijs showcased some great all-around game in the first round but his journey can come to an end despite being much more experienced than Rune. I expect Rune to win in straight sets.
