Event: Jinan Challenger Qualifying • Surface: Hard • Round: Qualifying

Class edge from past peak (former Top-50) but deep 2025 slump: 7–20 overall, 5–12 on hard.
Winless at Challenger/ATP level since April (Madrid CH R16 win, then early exits).
Profile: 191 cm, bigger frame/serve; first-strike patterns should play on Jinan’s hard if timing returns.

Heavy 2025 workload with returns: 51–23 overall, 37–17 on hard (mostly ITF + some Challengers).
Step-up tests mixed: good qual/MD wins but lopsided loss to Švrcina in Jingshan R1.
Profile: compact, consistent baseliner; thrives in longer rallies and versus shaky confidence.
