On the hard courts, Struff has won 10-13 win-loss record this year, with a quarterfinal appearance at Marseille.

Jan-Lennard Struff vs Stefanos Sakellaridis prediction

Hard courts have not been the strongest surface for Struff, as he has a 46 percent win rate on the surface. He has not reached any hard-court final on the main Tour, and his only success on the surface is two titles on the Challenger Tour, the last of which came in Belgium back in 2016.

Sakellaridis has won a Challenger title on the hard courts in his home Challenger event this year, winning against Petros Tsitsipas in the final. He also has reached eight hard-court finals on the ITF Tour, winning three titles, all of which have come in 2025.

Given the gulf in their ranking and quality, Struff is the strong favorite to win the upcoming match.

He is a fan of former player Roger Federer, and just like his favorite player, Sagnik likes to bring perfection to his write-ups by providing concise and on-point content. Speaking of the ‘GOAT’ debate, Sagnik believes that it is a bit unfair to compare the legends of the game from different eras who have played on different terms. But if he were to pick one, he’d go for Novak Djokovic based on his tally of 24 Grand Slam titles.

When not writing about tennis and technically analyzing the sport, which he believes are his 'forte', Sagnik indulges in reading books.
