In the confrontation with the American, Alejandro made two aces, made three break points and lost three games on his serve. Earlier in the tournament, the Spaniard was stronger than Mackenzie McDonald and Taro Daniel.
Professional qualities
Davidovich-Fokina is one of the most unstable tennis players on the tour. In his junior years, the Spaniard was considered a talent among his peers. However, his adult career did not meet all expectations. Nevertheless, in some tournaments, especially on dirt surfaces, Alejandro is still able to show a great game. He is hardworking and moves beautifully around the court, skillfully using his main weapon - a reliable forehand.

Matteo Arnaldi

Professional qualities
Arnaldi prefers to play in an attacking style, but does not have bright, powerful shots. His strength lies in his speed and sharp responses to counterattacks. However, it also has weaknesses.

At medium speeds, he can keep the ball in play, but under pressure, his technical flaws become more apparent.
