In the first round of the ATP 500 grass-court tournament, a match between Jannik Sinner and Tallon Griekspoor will take place. The match will be held in Halle on Tuesday, June 18, with the game scheduled to start at 15:00 Central European Time. Experts at Dailysports have provided a prediction for this match.
Jannik Sinner
The newly crowned world number one continues to make history in Italian tennis. While his dominance cannot be called absolute, as Sinner lost the recent Roland Garros final to Alcaraz in a hard-fought battle.
Sinner begins his preparation for Wimbledon shortly before the start of the Open Championship of the United Kingdom. After a week of rest, the Italian will play for the first time as the world’s top-ranked player.
Tallon Griekspoor
The Dutch tennis player finished the clay season well. Recently, he has only been losing to top-10 players: Djokovic in Geneva and Zverev at Roland Garros.
Transitioning to grass, Griekspoor immediately reached the semifinals of a less prestigious tournament in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, where he lost to Sebastian Korda. Before the start of the Halle tournament, Tallon is ranked 27th in the world.
