🔍 Match Breakdown

🎾 Serve & power: Bublik’s unorthodox kick serves and forehand cannons give him a clear edge; Cazaux must counter with early returns to prevent free points.

🔄 Rally craft: Cazaux thrives in extended clay exchanges with angles and touch; Bublik will aim to shorten points quickly or risk falling into baseline traps.

🧠 Tactical nuance: Bublik’s unpredictability—slices, spins, and drop shots—can throw Cazaux off rhythm; expect second-serve aggression and quick finishes.

💪 Stamina & nerves: Bublik has more clay mileage this season, while Cazaux plays loose with underdog freedom—dangerous if momentum swings.
