Preliminary Review and Match Prediction for David Goffin vs Hubert Hurkacz
David Goffin
David Goffin entered this year’s French Open on the back of a 12-4 win/loss record on clay and added two victories to his tally. In fact, this is the Belgian’s first win at Roland Garros after losing in the first round in the last two editions. The former world number seven’s best result at the French Open was reaching the quarter-finals in 2016 when he lost to Dominic Thiem.
After a weak 2021 season, the 31-year-old got injured and stopped playing in late August. He came back this year but was not so successful on the hard courts with a 5-8 record. However, Goffin seems to have found his spark back on clay and will be very tough to beat in this match.
Hubert Hurkacz
Looking at Hubert Hurkacz’s record on clay, it is obvious that it isn’t the Pole’s favorite surface. To point out, the 25-year-old has a 15-19 career record on clay, and at Roland Garros, he had just one win in five appearances before this year.
Nevertheless, being the number 13 in the world helped Hurkacz with this year’s draw. In the first round, the Pole beat 216 ranked Zeppieri in straight sets while in the second round he swept aside another Italian Cecchinato who is ranked 132. Surely, that will raise Hurkacz’s confidence ahead of his first-ever third-round appearance in Paris.
