Kamil Majchrzak vs Leandro Riedi — US Open 3R Preview

ATP US Open Hard Court 3rd Round
Odds (avg, decimal): Majchrzak 1.65 – Riedi 2.24

🧠 Form & Context

Kamil Majchrzak (No. 76, 🇵🇱, 29)

  • 🔥 Massive confidence boost: roared back from two sets down to beat Khachanov in 5 (snapped a 4-match skid vs him).
  • 📈 Summer upswing: Challenger title in Grodzisk Mazowiecki → solid Winston-Salem wins (Jarry, Borges) → USO R1 over Dellien.
  • 🧭 Comeback arc: back inside the Top 100 this year and tracking toward a new career high with this run (R16 at Wimbledon already in 2025).
  • ⏱️ Workload watch: five-setter in R2; recovery and legs late in sets are the key variables.

Leandro Riedi (No. 435, 🇨🇭, 23)

  • 🚑 Injury-plagued 12 months: ended 2024 after USO; returned May 2025 with a few retirements sprinkled in.
  • 🌱 Breakthrough week: qualified, then d. Martinez (3–0) and stunned Cerúndolo in 5; five MD wins this tournament including qualies.
  • 🧰 Upside + first-strike pop: raw ceiling is high; this is his first sustained main-draw surge at tour level.
  • ⏱️ Workload watch: also off a draining five-setter; historically managing physical load has been tricky.

Head-to-Head: First meeting.

🔍 Match Breakdown

  • Physicality & recovery: Both survived grinds in R2; whoever replenishes better likely owns the deciders and tiebreak moments.
  • 🎯 Experience vs ceiling: Majchrzak’s tour seasoning and Slam mileage offset Riedi’s superior peak ball-striking when hot.
  • ♟️ Patterns: Majchrzak’s compact baselining and point-construction can nudge rallies deeper; Riedi needs to cash in early with serve + forehand.
  • 🧠 Scoreboard pressure: If Majchrzak front-runs and keeps service games tidy, Riedi’s tolerance can wobble. If Riedi lands a high first-serve share early, he flips the script.

🔮 Prediction

Lean Majchrzak in a tight, momentum-swinging match. His recent run of reps plus the Khachanov comeback suggests he can problem-solve the big moments and manage the physical asks just a touch better.

Pick: Majchrzak to win (decimal ~1.65). Exact vibe: 4 sets, with at least one long set (TB or 7–5). Upset path for Riedi hinges on a hot serving day and keeping rallies short.

📊 Tale of the Tape (Qualitative)

  • Form trend: Majchrzak riding confidence from Khachanov comeback; Riedi peaking with first big Slam surge.
  • Physical load: Both off five-setters; margins tilt on recovery.
  • Experience vs upside: Majchrzak’s steady construction vs Riedi’s first-strike fire.
  • Scoreboard stress: Edge Majchrzak in clutch moments; Riedi needs quick points.
  • Surface fit: Hard-court baseline control vs streaky but explosive serving/forehand combos.

Khachanov vs Majchrzak — US Open 2R Preview

ATP US Open Hard Court 2nd Round

🧠 Form & Context

Karen Khachanov (No. 9, age 29)

  • 🇷🇺 Back in the top 10 for the first time since 2019.
  • 📊 2025 record: 32–18 (13–8 on hard).
  • 🔥 Season highlights: Toronto finalist (l. Shelton), Wimbledon QF, SF in Barcelona, consistent deep runs since spring.
  • 🏟️ US Open history: SF in 2022, but R1 exits in 2023 & 2024. Opened 2025 campaign with a 4-set win over Basavareddy.
  • 💡 Confidence: At least a QF in his last four completed events. Game clicking across surfaces.

Kamil Majchrzak (No. 76, age 29)

  • 🇵🇱 Former junior No. 1 rebuilding ranking after suspension.
  • 📊 2025 record: 33–19 overall, 16–4 on hard.
  • 🔥 Recent form: Won Grodzisk Mazowiecki Challenger in August, R16 Winston-Salem (lost to Korda).
  • 🏟️ Slam 2025: Wimbledon R16 (best Slam run of career, lost to Khachanov). USO R1: Beat Dellien 6-1, 6-4, 6-7, 6-4.
  • ⚠️ Fitness flag: Dips physically in longer matches. Against elite ball strikers, struggles to maintain intensity over five.

🔍 Match Breakdown

Head-to-Head: Khachanov leads 4–0. Most recent = Wimbledon 2025 R16 (Khachanov won 6-4, 6-2, 6-3).

Khachanov’s strengths: heavy serve + forehand, durable physically, thrives on hard-court rhythm. His baseline weight of shot usually overwhelms Majchrzak.

Majchrzak’s path: Must shorten points, vary pace, and attack Khachanov’s movement. But history shows he struggles to close sets against top-20 players.

Context: Both survived 4-setters in R1, but Khachanov’s Toronto final and Wimbledon QF underline a higher ceiling and greater reliability in Bo5.

🔮 Prediction

Majchrzak is playing some of his best post-suspension tennis, but Khachanov owns this matchup. Their meetings have been one-sided, and with Khachanov’s current confidence and rhythm, the upset seems unlikely. The Pole could sneak a set, yet the Russian’s firepower and stamina should carry him.

Pick: Khachanov in 3 or 4 sets.

Dellien vs Majchrzak — US Open R1 Preview

ATP US Open Hard Court Round 1

🧠 Form & Context

Hugo Dellien (No. 121, age 32)

  • 🇧🇴 Clay specialist whose grinding game doesn’t fully translate to hard courts.
  • 📉 2025: 27–23 overall, but only 2–3 on hard. Nearly shocked Monfils at Roland Garros (lost in 5), pushed Lehecka at Wimbledon.
  • 🏟️ US Open best = R2 (2019, beat Kwon). Winless in main draw since.
  • 💡 Strengths: Patience, baseline consistency, fitness.
  • ⚠️ Weakness: Limited power on quicker courts; just one ATP hard-court win in his career (USO 2019 via retirement).

Kamil Majchrzak (No. 76, age 29)

  • 🇵🇱 Resurgent after suspension, climbing back inside top 80.
  • 📈 2025: 32–19 overall, 15–4 on hard — clear surface edge over Dellien.
  • 🔥 Summer form: Won Grodzisk Mazowiecki Challenger, reached Winston-Salem R16 (d. Borges & Jarry, pushed Korda).
  • 🏟️ Slam track: Wimbledon 2025 R16; best US Open = R3 (2019).
  • ⚠️ Caveat: Fitness fragility, prone to retirements, but arrives in shape this week.

Head-to-Head: 1–1

  • 2025 Madrid Challenger: Majchrzak d. Dellien 7–6, 6–1 (hard).
  • 2018 Tampere Challenger: Dellien d. Majchrzak 7–6, 3–6, 6–1 (clay).

🔍 Match Breakdown

Majchrzak’s compact, aggressive baseline game is tailor-made for the US Open’s pace. Dellien’s clay-based grinding style rarely holds up against heavy ball-strikers on quick hard courts.

Form favors Majchrzak: 10 wins in his last 13 matches. Dellien’s best results this year have come on clay, with little traction on hard courts. Over five sets, Dellien’s only real path is dragging this into a physical war and testing Majchrzak’s fitness.

🔮 Prediction

With recent form, surface comfort, and their latest hard-court H2H, Majchrzak has the clear upper hand. Dellien could scrap out a set if the Pole wobbles physically, but over five sets the matchup tilts heavily toward Majchrzak.

Pick: Majchrzak in straight sets (3–0).

Majchrzak vs Korda — Winston-Salem Preview

ATP Winston-Salem Hard Court

🧠 Form & Context

Kamil Majchrzak

  • 🔥 Summer momentum: fresh from winning the Grodzisk Mazowiecki Challenger and backing it up with solid wins over Jarry and Borges here.
  • 📈 Hard-court form: 15–3 on hard in 2025, showcasing excellent confidence on this surface.
  • 💪 Durable competitor: solid baseline game, counterpunching style, thrives in longer rallies.
  • 🎾 Slam highlight: Wimbledon R16 last month (beat Berrettini, Quinn, Rinderknech before losing to Khachanov).
  • ⚠️ Lacks weapons: needs opponents to dip, as he doesn’t possess overwhelming power.

Sebastian Korda

  • 🩼 Rebuilding mode: still searching for rhythm after injury layoff; entered Winston-Salem ranked outside top 80.
  • 🏆 Past success here: semifinalist in 2023, feels comfortable at this venue.
  • 🎯 Key moments: Miami QF earlier this season, but recent months were full of close losses (Virtanen, Monfils, Vukic).
  • ✅ Beat Kopriva cleanly in R2, showing flashes of his big serve + flat hitting game.
  • ⚡ Big upside: at his best, a top-20 level player, but fitness and confidence are fragile.

Borges vs Majchrzak — Winston-Salem

ATP Winston-Salem Hard Court Second Round

🧠 Form & Context

Nuno Borges (POR)
World No. 38 | Age: 28 | Plays: Right-handed

  • 📊 2025 record: 26–24 overall, 12–10 on hard.
  • 🎾 Slam consistency: 3R at AO, RG, Wimbledon; pushed Khachanov to 5 sets at SW19.
  • 🏆 Best 2025 wins: Ruud, Cerundolo (clay). R16 Monte Carlo, 3R Toronto.
  • 📍 Winston-Salem: Never past R2 (lost R2 in 2024).
Kamil Majchrzak (POL)
World No. 88 | Age: 29 | Plays: Right-handed

  • 📊 2025 record: 31–18 overall, 14–3 on hard.
  • 🔥 Recent form: Won Challengers in Madrid & Grodzisk Mazowiecki; 10 wins in last 11 matches.
  • 🎾 Slam highlight: Wimbledon R16 (d. Berrettini, Rinderknech; l. Khachanov).
  • ✅ Winston-Salem: Just second appearance (first since 2022); d. Nicolás Jarry in R1 here.
  • 🔄 H2H: Borges leads 1–0 (2022 Davis Cup, straight sets).

🔍 Match Breakdown

  • Style clash: Borges thrives in grinding rallies but lacks finishing weapons; Majchrzak prefers flat, early-strike baseline play on hard courts.
  • Momentum vs experience: Borges brings steady ATP-level mileage, while Majchrzak rides red-hot Challenger and ATP form.
  • Tactics: Borges’ topspin forehand can push Majchrzak back, but the Pole has served efficiently this summer and rarely gives free points.
  • Match flow: Longer rallies = Borges’ chance; shorter, first-strike exchanges = Majchrzak edge.

🔮 Prediction

A tricky battle: Borges’ ATP consistency vs Majchrzak’s hard-court surge. Borges has beaten him before, but momentum leans Polish.

Pick: Majchrzak in 3 sets — expect a tight, physical clash.

Kamil Majchrzak vs Pablo Llamas Ruiz

🎾 ATP Umag – First Round Preview

Kamil Majchrzak vs Pablo Llamas Ruiz
22 July 2025, Umag (Clay)

🧠 Form & Context

Kamil Majchrzak
  • 🌱 Clay comfort: Holds a 12–7 record on clay in 2025, including a Challenger final in Madrid and multiple QF runs.
  • 🎾 Tour-tested: Former Top 75 player with Grand Slam experience—knows how to navigate tight matches.
  • 📈 Confidence up: Shook off a narrow Gstaad loss with a convincing opening win, showing renewed stability.
  • 🆕 First time in Umag: Debuts here with no baggage and solid footing on European red dirt.
Pablo Llamas Ruiz
  • 🚀 Emerging talent: 13–8 on clay this year, highlighted by Challenger SF runs and a strong Q-QF showing to qualify for Umag.
  • 🔰 Still raw at tour level: Just 22 and ranked outside the Top 500, but fearless in his run through qualifiers—beat Pellegrino in straight sets.
  • 🧠 All-court instincts: Uses variety, including drop shots and spins, though sometimes lacks finishing power under pressure.
  • ⚠️ Facing the step up: This will be his first main-draw match against an experienced tour-level clay grinder.

🔍 Match Breakdown

Majchrzak brings experience, shot tolerance, and red-dirt savvy to this matchup. His compact strokes and early baseline positioning allow him to control direction and punish anything short. He’ll look to dictate and avoid falling into off-tempo exchanges.

Llamas Ruiz enters with nothing to lose and the kind of confidence only a young qualifier can carry. He’ll try to break rhythm with off-speed shots and angle changes—but long rallies and heavy backhands from Majchrzak will test his defensive consistency.

If the Pole plays within himself and chooses the right moments to accelerate, he’ll grind through this. But Llamas Ruiz’s momentum and trickiness could easily stretch this out—especially if Majchrzak misfires early.

🔮 Prediction

Kamil Majchrzak in 3 sets.
Expect a drawn-out tactical battle. Majchrzak’s ceiling and experience make him the favorite, but the Spaniard’s current rhythm and unorthodox patterns will keep things close. Best angle: Llamas Ruiz +games and Over 21.5 total games. A red-dirt chess match awaits—stay sharp and enjoy the value!

Kamil Majchrzak vs. Ignacio Buse

ATP Gstaad – Round of 16
Kamil Majchrzak vs. Ignacio Buse

🧠 Form & Context

Kamil Majchrzak

  • 🧱 The seasoned pro: With close to 500 career wins under his belt, Majchrzak isn’t just experienced—he’s battle-hardened. After working his way back from suspension and injuries, he's playing like a man on a mission.
  • 🔥 Rolling on clay: A 12–6 record on the dirt this season says plenty. A semifinal in Marrakech and a Challenger title in Madrid have helped him find his groove again.
  • 💪 Wimbledon momentum: Reaching the fourth round at SW19—taking out Berrettini and Rinderknech in epic battles—has injected fresh confidence into his campaign.
  • 🇨🇭 Altitude debut: This is his first time playing in Gstaad, but his compact baseline game and sharp transitions could thrive in these faster, high-bounce clay conditions.

Ignacio Buse

  • 🚀 The up-and-comer: The 21-year-old Peruvian is building a solid clay résumé, now boasting a 22–12 record this season. That includes a massive R1 upset over Laslo Djere just days ago.
  • 🎾 Challenger credentials: He’s not just squeaking by. Buse has gone deep in serious tournaments—winning Heilbronn, and reaching the semis in Aix-en-Provence, where he beat names like Opelka and Coric.
  • Coming in hot: He’s come through qualifying, took down Ramos-Viñolas, and then outlasted Djere. This isn't a lucky run—he's earned it with grit and poise.
  • 🔄 Biggest stage yet: This is his first-ever ATP Round of 16, and facing someone as tour-savvy as Majchrzak is a true measuring stick moment.

🔍 Match Breakdown

This one has all the ingredients: an experienced grinder with tour mileage versus a fearless young gun swinging free. Majchrzak has the weight of shot, court craft, and return depth to drag Buse into uncomfortable patterns. His backhand—solid as ever—will likely do the heavy lifting in rallies.

Buse, meanwhile, loves taking the ball early and hitting on the rise. If he can jump on Majchrzak’s second serve and impose his tempo, especially in these thin-air conditions, he can make things nervy for the Pole.

Still, if this turns into a grind—it often does at Gstaad—Majchrzak’s stamina, consistency, and problem-solving edge should rise to the surface.

🔮 Prediction

Buse is riding a high and playing with nothing to lose. That could be enough to grab a set, especially if he starts fast. But over three, Majchrzak’s veteran instincts, superior fitness, and sharper decision-making under pressure make him the likelier winner.

Prediction: Majchrzak in 3 sets. Expect shot-making, tight momentum swings, and a real test of nerve—especially in set one.

Majchrzak vs Atmane

🇨🇭 ATP Gstaad – 1st Round

🗓️ Date: 14 July, 10:30 (CEST)
📍 Surface: Outdoor Clay

🧠 Form & Context

Kamil Majchrzak
🔄 The former Top 100 Pole is rebuilding his career with impressive grit. After returning from suspension and injury, he's claimed a Challenger title in Madrid and reached an ATP semifinal in Marrakech.
🎾 His 11–5 clay record this season includes altitude-friendly wins over Munar, De Jong, and Muller—evidence that he thrives in these conditions.
📈 Recently came off a strong Wimbledon run, surviving a five-set thriller against Berrettini before falling to Khachanov in the fourth round. Momentum is on his side.
📍 Making his Gstaad debut, but his compact strokes and defensive reliability are a strong fit for high-bounce, patience-rewarding clay.

Terence Atmane
🎢 The Frenchman has had a rollercoaster season—two Challenger titles and a final on hard courts, but just 2–2 on clay in 2025.
🎾 Clearly prefers quicker surfaces, with an 18–11 record on hard compared to a disappointing 4–7 elsewhere. Struggles to adjust to slower clay, especially at altitude.
🧨 He possesses a booming forehand and flashy tools but often self-sabotages with double faults and erratic shot selection. He retired from a match in April and has looked uncomfortable ever since.
📍 Like Majchrzak, he’s also debuting in Gstaad—but unlike the Pole, he’s untested and unconvincing in this specific environment.

🔍 Match Breakdown

This matchup is all about discipline versus volatility. Majchrzak’s methodical baseline play and court coverage are a poor stylistic matchup for Atmane, who feeds off rhythm and fast starts. On slow, bouncy clay, Atmane will find it harder to hit through the court.

While the Frenchman can explode for a set if everything clicks, Majchrzak has shown he can grind out wins and wear down inconsistent opponents. He’s also much more reliable physically—something that could matter against a player with multiple retirements in 2025.

🔮 Prediction

Atmane might steal a streaky start, but across a best-of-three format, Majchrzak’s patience, fitness, and tactical sharpness should prove too consistent. Unless Atmane redlines for 90 minutes straight, this is the Pole’s match to control.

🧩 Pick: Kamil Majchrzak to win in 2 sets
🎯 Handicap Lean: Majchrzak –3.5 games
🔢 Over/Under Lean: Under 21.5 games

Kamil Majchrzak vs Arthur Rinderknech

🎾 Wimbledon 2025 – 3rd Round Preview

Kamil Majchrzak vs Arthur Rinderknech

🧠 Form & Context

Kamil Majchrzak
🎯 Grass-court redemption: The Pole is into the 3rd round of Wimbledon for the first time in five appearances, making the most of a favorable draw after wins over Matteo Berrettini and Ethan Quinn.
🧱 Grit & consistency: He’s been in solid form across all surfaces this year (23–13 overall), with a Challenger title in Madrid and a SF in Marrakech on clay.
📈 Slam breakthrough: This marks only his second career R3 at a major—the first was at the 2019 US Open. A win here would vault him back into the ATP Top 100.
🧠 Confident streak: Has won 7 of his last 9 matches, including five-set toughness vs Berrettini. Comfortable grinding but lacks firepower on faster surfaces.

Arthur Rinderknech
🚨 Zverev scalp: Pulled off the shock of the tournament by eliminating world No. 3 Zverev in five sets. Then backed it up with another marathon win over Garin.
📉 Rocky season turnaround: Entered Wimbledon with a losing record in 2025 (14–22) but is catching fire during the grass swing. QF at Queen’s (beat Shelton) was a warning.
🎾 Grass boost: Now 7–4 on grass this year, more wins than on any other surface. Showing confidence in serve-volley tactics and tiebreaks.
🏁 Slam milestone chase: Like Majchrzak, he's bidding for his first-ever second-week appearance at a Slam. Previously went R3 once (US Open 2023).

🔍 Match Breakdown

This clash presents a fascinating contrast in style and momentum. Majchrzak thrives on rhythm and rally endurance, using timing and consistency to frustrate opponents. Rinderknech, on the other hand, brings explosive firepower—especially with his serve and forehand—and excels in quicker conditions. The Frenchman’s form surge on grass has been timely, and his serve-volley sequences have clicked well. However, two back-to-back five-set battles could sap his legs, and Majchrzak will look to extend points and exploit any signs of fatigue. Majchrzak’s serve return and fitness could allow him to chip away over time. The key for the Pole will be creating break chances early and forcing longer service games from Rinderknech, who’s been pushed to the brink twice already.

🔮 Prediction

This is about margins and endurance. Rinderknech holds the edge in raw weapons and confidence from his Zverev scalp, but if Majchrzak turns this into a grind, all bets are off. Expect the Frenchman to take control early, but the deeper it goes, the more dangerous the Pole becomes. Prediction: Arthur Rinderknech in 4 sets. If it hits a fifth, Majchrzak could flip the script.

Kamil Majchrzak vs Ethan Quinn

Kamil Majchrzak vs Ethan Quinn – Wimbledon 2025 Preview

Tournament: Wimbledon, ATP Main Draw – 2nd Round

Date: July 3, 2025

Surface: Grass

Location: All England Club, London


🧠 Form & Context

Kamil Majchrzak

  • 🌱 Comeback story: Ended a seven-match losing streak by taking down 2021 Wimbledon finalist Berrettini in five sets, marking his first-ever R2 at Wimbledon.
  • 🔙 Slam revival: This is his first Grand Slam second round appearance since AO 2022, and only the third of his career.
  • 🛑 Rusty run-in: Entered Wimbledon with a 1–7 record since Marrakech in early April, with losses in qualies and early Challenger exits.
  • 🎾 Grass history: Prior to this year, had not won a grass match since 2022; just 1–3 on the surface in 2025.
  • 🔋 Physical question: Has played a heavy 2025 schedule (35 matches), but was sharp and focused in his R1 upset.

Ethan Quinn

  • 💪 Breakthrough season: Made French Open R3 after beating Dimitrov and Shevchenko, and reached career-high ranking inside top 90.
  • 🌿 Grass evolution: Had just 4 career grass matches before this swing, but is now 4–2 this season—including a R1 win over Searle and a main draw win in Mallorca.
  • 🚀 Serve-heavy weaponry: Big-serving game is effective on slick grass; saved 10 of 11 break points in R1.
  • 🔄 Learning fast: Has built up confidence with strong qualifying runs and main draw success across surfaces.
  • 🎯 Targeting first Slam 3R: This is his Wimbledon debut and only his second R2 appearance at a major.

🔍 Match Breakdown

Stylistically, this is a contrast between Quinn’s explosive serve-first aggression and Majchrzak’s compact, counter-punching, rally-building style.

Quinn will try to shorten points and dominate with his serve and forehand, while Majchrzak will aim to extend rallies, expose the American’s movement, and take advantage of his inexperience on grass. However, Majchrzak’s five-setter and fitness questions could work against him, especially if the match goes deep.

Majchrzak has the experience and composure, but Quinn is riding momentum, has fresher legs, and is brimming with confidence after a very productive European swing.

🔮 Prediction

Prediction: Quinn in 4 sets, with Majchrzak potentially nabbing a set through sheer baseline consistency and fight.

Matteo Berrettini vs Kamil Majchrzak

ATP Wimbledon – 1st Round
Matteo Berrettini vs Kamil Majchrzak

🧠 Form & Context

  • Matteo Berrettini
    🧱 Wimbledon 2021 finalist and consistent second-week presence (3x).
    ⚕️ Injury-prone in 2025, but reported fit after Hurlingham win vs Darderi.
    🔥 Dangerous on grass despite limited reps (14–10 record this year).
    🌱 Grass record: 46–13 lifetime – elite serve/forehand weapons make him a threat on this surface.

  • Kamil Majchrzak
    📉 Seven straight losses entering this match – confidence shaken.
    ⚠️ 0–2 at Wimbledon in past attempts, never made R2.
    🔄 Started 2025 with Challenger success, but momentum lost in last two months.
    🚫 Grass struggles: Just 1–3 this season and lacking a standout weapon to hurt top-tier opponents.

🔍 Match Breakdown

This is a stylistic mismatch unless Berrettini’s fitness derails him. His heavy serve, punishing forehand, and net instincts make him a nightmare for baseline retrievers like Majchrzak, especially on a slick grass court. The Italian’s slice also keeps low and neutralizes Majchrzak’s rhythm.

The Pole is solid off both wings, but lacks power to dictate or push Berrettini back. His return game isn’t sharp enough to counter the Italian’s service games, and he’s been struggling in pressure moments recently—dropping sets quickly once momentum slips.

Only risk? Berrettini hasn’t played a competitive tour match in weeks. If his timing is off early, the match could stretch a bit—but his weapons should eventually prove too much.

🔮 Prediction

Prediction: Berrettini in 3 sets – This should be a clean, efficient performance if fitness holds up.

Betting angle: Berrettini –6.5 games (if priced >1.80) or under 28.5 total games for safer coverage.

🎾 ATP French Open R1: Hamad Medjedovic vs Kamil Majchrzak

🎾 ATP French Open R1: Hamad Medjedovic vs Kamil Majchrzak – Match Preview

🧠 Form & Context

🇷🇸 Hamad Medjedovic
🩹 Recurring injuries: Reached the Marseille final earlier this year but has been plagued by physical setbacks ever since.
📉 Clay woes: Since Doha, owns just one clay win with losses to Hijikata, Carabelli, and Virtanen.
🚫 Skipped Australian Open: Focused on Challengers instead, breaking into the top 100.
🔒 Slam drought: Still winless (0–4) in Grand Slam main draws.
🇵🇱 Kamil Majchrzak
🔙 Back from ban: Returned in 2024 after a doping suspension and has since rebuilt his ranking into the top 100.
💪 Mental fortitude: Has fought through adversity and appears in good physical shape.
🎾 Paris pursuit: Looking to earn his first Slam win since AO 2022.
🔥 Positive signs: Match-fit, focused, and eager to make his Slam return count.

🔍 Match Breakdown

This is a contrast in trajectories: Medjedovic is a flashy power-hitter struggling with durability, while Majchrzak is rebuilding from the ground up with focus and grit. The slower clay at Roland Garros favors Majchrzak’s steady game and exposes Medjedovic’s conditioning issues. If Medjedovic redlines, he can take a set. But sustained level over best-of-five on clay? That’s where Majchrzak’s consistency and rally tolerance come into play.

🔮 Prediction

Majchrzak has the edge in fitness, mental sharpness, and clay stability. If Medjedovic’s body doesn’t hold up—as has often been the case in 2024—this match tilts decisively. 🧩 Prediction: Majchrzak in 4 sets – Expect some resistance, but the Pole’s endurance and composure should wear Medjedovic down.

🎾 ATP Madrid: Gabriel Diallo vs Kamil Majchrzak

🎾 ATP Madrid: Gabriel Diallo vs Kamil Majchrzak – Match Preview

🧠 Form & Context

🇨🇦 Gabriel Diallo

  • Lucky Loser Charm: Third Masters-level lucky loser entry this season (Indian Wells, Miami, Madrid)—won R1 in all three.
  • Madrid Breakthrough: Defeated Zizou Bergs in straight sets for his first-ever Masters main-draw victory.
  • Consistency Issues: Has yet to win back-to-back main-draw matches in 2025 across 10 events.
  • Surface Challenge: Clay doesn’t suit his big-serve, first-strike style as much as faster surfaces.

🇵🇱 Kamil Majchrzak

  • Even Luckier Entry: Replaced Carlos Alcaraz as a lucky loser and advanced straight into R2.
  • Clay Court Hot Streak: Entered Madrid with a 10–1 clay record this year, including a Marrakech semifinal and Madrid Challenger title.
  • Baseline Solidity: Strong court coverage, tactical point construction, and proven clay-court instincts.
  • Fitness Watch: Past physical inconsistencies, but recent signs of improvement and match toughness.

🔍 Match Breakdown

Diallo’s powerful serve and heavy forehand could be amplified by Madrid’s altitude, making him dangerous if he can keep points short. However, his clay-court skills—particularly patience and rally construction—remain underdeveloped.

Majchrzak thrives in longer rallies, constructing points smartly and forcing opponents to overhit. With strong recent clay form and greater tactical awareness, he’s much better equipped to handle the physical demands of the surface compared to Diallo.

If Majchrzak can extend rallies beyond three or four shots consistently, the match should swing heavily in his favor.

🔮 Prediction

✔️ Prediction: Kamil Majchrzak in 2 sets

Expect Diallo to show flashes of danger early, but Majchrzak’s consistency, movement, and superior clay-court IQ should see him through in straight sets.

🎾 ATP Marrakech: Tallon Griekspoor vs Kamil Majchrzak – Semifinal Preview

🧠 Form & Context

Tallon Griekspoor 🇳🇱
💪 Best season start ever: Griekspoor is 13–6 in 2025 and 2–0 on clay this season with convincing wins over Carreño Busta and Bellucci.
🧱 Underrated clay skills: With a 187–106 clay record, the Dutchman brings power and altitude-tested aggression to Marrakech.
🚀 Breakthrough campaign: Into his second semifinal of 2025 and showing newfound composure in big points.
📍 Marrakech form: Quarterfinalist in 2023, now looking sharper with improved service rhythm and smarter point construction.

Kamil Majchrzak 🇵🇱
🔙 Comeback story: A perfect 5–0 on clay in 2025 after returning from a ranking slide. He’s dropped just one set all week.
🔥 Dominant week: Straight-set wins over Muller, De Jong, and Munar show he’s playing his cleanest tennis in years.
🏋️ Clay credentials: Holds a 259–125 career record on the surface and thrives in extended rallies.
🧠 Experience edge?: Leads Griekspoor 1–0 in their H2H (2017 Futures), and his calm baseline tactics are built for tight matches.

🔍 Match Breakdown

This semifinal brings together raw firepower and strategic depth. Griekspoor’s best path is clear: dominate with serve + forehand combos and take time away on return games. His ability to dictate in short bursts makes him especially dangerous in altitude conditions.

Majchrzak, however, has been the most stable player all week. His depth, anticipation, and court coverage force opponents to hit extra shots—and he’s turned defense into offense brilliantly throughout the tournament.

Key Factors:
• Can Griekspoor keep rallies short and avoid overhitting?
• Will Majchrzak’s return game exploit any lapses in Griekspoor’s second serve?
• How does each player respond in tight moments under semifinal pressure?

🔮 Prediction

Pick: Tallon Griekspoor in 3 sets
Majchrzak is dangerous and dialed in, but Griekspoor’s improved match management and altitude-friendly firepower should get him over the line.

🎾 ATP Marrakech: Alexandre Muller vs Kamil Majchrzak

🎾 ATP Marrakech: Alexandre Muller vs Kamil Majchrzak – Match Preview

🧠 Form & Context

🇫🇷 Alexandre Muller

  • 💪 Quietly consistent: Holding a 14–8 record in 2025, including 5–3 on clay.
  • 🇲🇦 Marrakech comfort: Finalist here in 2023—clearly at ease in these conditions.
  • 📈 Career-best rise: Recently broke into the Top 50 and captured his first ATP title this season.
  • 🧠 Battle-tested: Strong wins over Cerundolo, Dellien, and De Jong in recent weeks.

🇵🇱 Kamil Majchrzak

  • 🔙 Comeback season: 14–5 in 2025 after returning from suspension, including a perfect 4–0 on clay.
  • 🔥 Momentum builder: 8 wins in his last 9 matches, including straight-set victories in Marrakech over Munar, Trungeletti, and De Jong.
  • 📍 Proven on clay: A career 258–125 record on the surface makes him a tough out.
  • 🧪 ATP-level test: Most wins have come at Challenger level—this is a step up in competition.

🔍 Match Breakdown

This is a quarterfinal between two in-form, battle-hardened players. Muller has the tour-level experience and confidence from his deep Marrakech run in 2023. His ability to extend points, use heavy topspin, and stay solid in long exchanges gives him the edge in high-altitude clay conditions.

Majchrzak, meanwhile, plays more direct, flat tennis—effective against aggressive baseliners but less proven against pure grinders. If he controls the tempo and lands first serves, he can trouble Muller. But in extended rallies, Muller’s clay-specific movement and defensive toolkit could tilt the match.

Key stat: While Majchrzak is 4–0 on clay this year, he’s yet to face a top-60 opponent. Muller has.

🔮 Prediction

Pick: Alexandre Muller in 3 sets

Majchrzak is a live underdog, but Muller's match toughness and Marrakech success give him a narrow advantage. Expect a tactical battle with plenty of grinding.

🎾 ATP Marrakech: De Jong vs Majchrzak

🎾 ATP Marrakech: De Jong vs Majchrzak – Match Preview

🧠 Form & Context

🟩 Jesper De Jong

  • 🔥 Strong start to 2025: 11–9 overall and 8–4 on clay—quietly putting together a solid campaign.
  • 🧱 Challenger success: Picked up notable wins in Girona, including over former Grand Slam finalist Marin Cilic.
  • 🇲🇦 Efficient opener: Took out Benchetrit in straight sets—looked sharp and focused.
  • 📈 Rising momentum: Showing reliable baseline play and growing confidence in grinding clay-court conditions.

🟥 Kamil Majchrzak

  • 📉 Comeback mode: Still rebuilding post-suspension—looking to regain top form after a long absence in 2023.
  • 🔄 Mixed record: 13–5 this year, but most wins came against lower-tier competition.
  • 🚧 Clay sample size small: 3–0 on clay in 2025, but two wins were in Marrakech qualifiers.
  • 🇲🇦 Signs of life: Defeated Munar and Trungeletti in the main draw—showing increased confidence and match sharpness.

🔍 Match Breakdown

This match features a contrast in styles: De Jong’s grinding, high-topspin clay-court patterns against Majchrzak’s flatter, more athletic all-court game. De Jong thrives on rhythm and long rallies, especially in the slow, high-bounce conditions of Marrakech.

Majchrzak has more upside with cleaner baseline weapons and past ATP experience. But he’s less tested on clay this season, and his consistency still lags behind in grinding rallies—especially against durable opponents like De Jong.

If the match becomes a tactical chess match, expect De Jong’s clay-craft and match rhythm to outlast the Polish player's streaky aggression.

🔮 Prediction

Pick: De Jong in 3 sets

Majchrzak will push hard, but De Jong’s natural clay instincts, recent form, and baseline steadiness give him the slight edge in what could be a war of attrition.

🎾 ATP Marrakech: Majchrzak vs Munar – Match Preview

🎾 ATP Marrakech: Majchrzak vs Munar – Match Preview

🧠 Form & Context

🟨 Kamil Majchrzak

  • 🔙 On the comeback trail: 12–5 in 2025, including a perfect 2–0 on clay so far.
  • 🔥 In form: Beat Nagal and Trungelliti in Marrakech qualifying—sharp and confident entering the main draw.
  • 🎾 Clay-capable: Though better known on hard courts, his clean baseline game suits slower surfaces too.
  • 🧱 H2H edge: Leads Munar 2–0 with both wins in straight sets (2017 & 2019).

🟥 Jaume Munar

  • 🌋 True clay specialist: 328–183 career record on clay. Tactical and tough in long rallies.
  • 🧗 Mixed 2025 form: 9–6 overall, but only 1–1 on clay and lost in three sets to Monfils in Miami.
  • 🇲🇦 Marrakech regular: QF in 2019, and R16 in each of the last two years.
  • 📉 Seeking consistency: Has wins over top-30 players this year, but still looking for rhythm.

🔍 Match Breakdown

This match is closer than rankings suggest. Majchrzak enters with momentum and match sharpness after two qualifying wins, while Munar brings clay-court pedigree but some inconsistency in recent results.

Munar will try to wear down Majchrzak with length and spin, but the Pole has been striking the ball cleanly and moving well. If he holds serve consistently and keeps his backhand solid, he can stay in control of baseline exchanges.

The key will be whether Munar can force enough long, physical points to test Majchrzak’s legs. But with his current confidence and past H2H success, the Pole looks ready to edge another grinding win.

🔮 Prediction

Pick: Majchrzak in 3 sets

Expect long rallies and a war of attrition, but Majchrzak’s current rhythm and sharper shot-making could give him just enough to pull off the upset once again.
