J.J. Wolf vs. Alexander Bublik Analysis
Wolf, the world No. 48, is 18-15 this season with a 4-3 record on grass. He doesn’t have the booming serve that Bublik has, but is able to beat opponents with his quickness and tenacity. He’s 3-0 in his career against Bublik, most recently beating him at the Miami Open. Each of his wins against Bublik have been on a hard court.
Bublik, the world No. 26, has been the better player in tennis standings this season and is a much better grass court player than Wolf. Bublik is 7-1 on grass this season and won the Halle Open a little more than a week ago in impressive fashion. He beat Borna Coric, Jannik Sinner, Alex Zverev, and Andrey Rublev, all strong grass court players. He has plenty of momentum and should be able to keep Wolf off balance with his strong serving ability.
