Command Analysis
Alexander Zverev
GermanyZverev had a very solid first half of the season. We could finally see stability in his performance. If earlier he could not stay for a long time at big tournaments, this year the situation has really improved. The last time Zverev appeared on court in an official game was at the beginning of July - then, the representative of Germany lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime in the fourth round of Wimbledon (4-6, 7-6, 6-3, 6-3, 4-6).
Yen-Hsun Lu
TaiwanLu Yen-Hsun hasn't won anything this season. The 37-year-old tennis player attended a few tournaments but didn't gain any success. At the Tokyo Olympics, he doesn't have a big chance of showing good results either or even advancing to the next round: his first opponent is the athlete from the top ten of the world rankings. Lu Yen-Hsun had once ranked 33rd, but at the moment he is not even in the top 500.
