Purcell Hopeful About Winning
Max Purcell played some amazing tennis while in the tennis US, which got him inside the Top 50 of the rankings. Nobody expected the doubles specialist to become so good in singles, but he worked hard and earned his spot here.
His score this year is an impressive 51-23, and while some of those didn’t come on the ATP Tour, more recently, Purcell has been quite amazing. It didn’t translate to much after he left the US with some losses in the Davis Cup and, more recently, in Asia, but the hope is that he’ll return to good form here.
The draw was kind, giving him a player who is on a level below him, but he’s a Chinese native who will see a lot of his compatriots support him, so expect a good showing from him.
I do think Purcell has the match on his racquet because the conditions do favour the way he approaches tennis. If he produces a solid level, I do think he’ll likely win the match.

Hsu Makes it Through the Qualifiers
Hsu didn’t get a wild card entry into this event but rather had to earn his spot through the qualifiers and he did really well. The first match was an easy straight-sets win over Miljan Zekic, but the second one required a bit more work. He kind of fumbled the opening set despite being up a break but rallied to win easily in three sets against compatriot Fajing Sun.
He also qualified for the US Open, which was the start of his good play more recently, and it saw his ranking increase in the Top 200. The Chinese player has a 26-15 record so far this year, which is pretty solid.
Most of the wins came on hard courts, which is his best surface. He’ll need to play a good match to win because he didn’t have much success against Purcell in the past, but playing at home should give him a boost.
He will certainly be motivated.
Purcell v Hsu Prediction and Tip
They played a couple of times and Purcell dominated the matchup. Had he looked a bit better recently I would have backed him unconditionally but I think he might face some issues so I’ll back the over here.
