Casper Ruud vs Hubert Hurkacz prediction

Clay is Ruud's favorite surface and he has won an impressive 46 out of 56 matches on the red dirt since the start of 2021. Hurkacz has struggled on clay in the past. But this season he has fared well on the surface, with nine wins out of 12 matches so far. This is a match-up of contrasting styles. Ruud will look to control the match from the baseline with his powerful forehand. His solid defensive skills and movement will come in handy against the big-hitting Hurkacz. The Pole, meanwhile, will rely on his strong serve to put pressure on Ruud. He will have to be precise with his groundstrokes or Ruud will make him pay. The Norwegian stood as far back as he possibly could to negate Sonego's serve in the third round and will likely do the same against Hurkacz. The Pole could look to move forward to counter such a tactic. Ruud will come into the match a little fatigued after his five-set battle against Sonego. However, given his claycourt prowess, he should be able to see off the big Pole and reach his first Grand Slam quarterfinal. Pick: Ruud to win in four sets. Poll : Who will win the 2022 ATP finals?
