Rune H. - McDonald M.

ATP London

Rune H. - McDonald M.

🧠 Form & Context

Holger Rune
✅ Eased past lucky loser O’Connell in R1 after Matteo Arnaldi’s withdrawal.
🚑 Still dealing with a season haunted by fitness concerns—has required medical timeouts in multiple events and struggled with consistency.
🧱 Despite physical setbacks, Rune has had high points: Indian Wells finalist, Barcelona champion.
🍃 Grass history: SF at Queen’s 2023 is his career-best on the surface; exited R1 here in 2024.
🎾 When healthy, his explosive baseline game and returning ability can hurt anyone.

Mackenzie McDonald
📈 Grass revival: snapped a 5-match losing streak with back-to-back wins in Hertogenbosch and three straight in London.
🧗 Climbed back into the Top 100 with his recent wins (currently live ranked ~89).
💪 Solid all-court game and excellent mover; thrives when opponents are physically below par.
🟨 Beat Rune in 2023 Cincinnati (via retirement) but lost earlier that year at Indian Wells.
