Stefanos Tsitsipas v Hubert Hurkacz Head to Head
The player have met five times in their career. Tsitsipas leads 4-1, with four of their meetings in 2019. Hurkacz’s only win was at the 2019 Rogers’ Cup in three sets.
Tsitsipas Hoping For Strong Return After Aussie Open Setback
World number six Stefanos Tsitsipas had a very good run in 2019, and is among the leading members of the ‘Next Gen’ that is expected to take over the baton from the Big Three in the foreseeable future.
The barometer of his success is best evidenced by him being the Next Gen ATP Finals winner in Milan in 2018 and winning the 2019 ATP Tour Finals in London, defeating none other than Roger Federer en route.
2019 saw him make the semi-finals of a major (Australian Open), finals of a Masters 1000 (Madrid), winning titles at Marseille and Estoril as well as defeating each of the Big Three during the year.
With a lot expected from him in 2020, a sub-optimal ATP Cup and a third round loss at the Australian Open will qualify as an underwhelming start to the season for him.
Tsitsipas will hope for a good run at the year’s first ATP 500 in Rotterdam, hoping that it will set him up well for the rest of the season.

Will Young Hurkacz Continue His ATP Cup Performance?
2019 was a good year for young Pole Hubert Hurkacz, where he had a decent run at Wimbledon and most importantly won his first ATP title at the Winston-Salem ATP 250.
Hurkacz has moved up into the top 30 in the ATP rankings and got his season off to a promising start, winning all his singles matches at the inaugural ATP Cup.
This involved victories against Dominic Thiem, Diego Schwartzman and Borna Coric and was billed as one of the dangerous floaters in the Australian Open draw.
However, an early loss against local John Milman was a disappointing Australian Open for the Pole, who will look to bounce back strong here on.
Stefanos Tsitsipas v Hubert Hurkacz Predictions & Tips
This makes for a very exciting first round match at the Rotterdam Open. Although Tsitsipas is the favorite, Hurkacz has every reason to believe he can win this encounter. The Greek will need to come out strong and put up a strong display to avoid an early round tussle or defeat.
Expect the match to be won by the better player on the day and it really depends on who plays the bigger points better. Tsitipas in three tight sets seem the likely outcome at the moment.
