Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Nick Kyrgios prediction

Tsitsipas has had his fair share of struggles on grass throughout his career and was taken to the distance by Benjamin Bonzi. The 2021 French Open finalist hasn't won consecutive matches on this surface since his run to the quarterfinals at ATP London in 2019. Tsitsipas won 74 percent of his first serve points and saved seven out of 10 break points throughout the match. While the second seed usually prefers slow and high bounces, his excellent first serve and crafty net skills make him a competitive player on grass. He can improve on his return game, though, as he only managed to win only 18 percent of the points while facing his opponents' serve. Kyrgios is a dangerous player on grass, and he has got some big results on the surface, such as beating former champions and Andy Murray and posting four quarterfinals (or better) results at grass court tournaments, including Wimbledon. The former World No. 13 won 87 percent of his first serve points and never faced a break point against Altmaier. Kyrgios has looked calm while executing his shots in the last few matches and has added a beautiful drop volley to his repertoire of skills. Nick Kyrgios' win ratio on grass is more than the Greek at 62.2 percent. If he keeps his cool in difficult situations and starts to find the line early on in the match, he should be able to secure a place in the last eight. Pick: Nick Kyrgios to win in three sets.
