Command Analysis

Alejandro Davidovich Fokina

Current form
Davidovich Fokina managed to overcome only the starting circle at the recent Masters in Shanghai - he beat Gabriel Diallo, but then lost to Tomas Machac. On indoor hard courts this season, the Spaniard has two wins and two losses.
Professional qualities
Davidovich Fokina is a versatile player who can play defense very well. He is able to pull out the most difficult balls and use his athleticism to hit aggressive shots from both forehand and backhand. However, the Spaniard lacks two key factors for consistent success indoors: a stable serve and psychological stability.
Current indicators in the tour
Davidovich Fokina, who once held 21st place in the world rankings, is now ranked 64th. The Spaniard has had a poor season, in which he has not yet reached the quarterfinals of any tournament.
