Tung-Lin Wu, for his part, won the all-qualifier meeting against 20-year-old Japanese Hayato Matsuoka to advance to the Brisbane 4 Challenger final. Wu won the first set 6-3, having garnered the only break of serve in the second game. Wu briefly went up a break at the start of the second set, but lost that lead in the fourth game when Matsuoka broke back.

A tiebreak was needed to settle things, and it was Wu who came out on top in dominant fashion, winning 7-4. Wu hit 6 aces to 1 double fault in the victory. He landed 71% of first serves in play and won 72% of first serve points (43/60). Wu won 54% of second serve points (13/24) and saved six of seven break points.

Alex Bolt vs Tung-Lin Wu Prediction

Tung-Lin Wu’s run to the final has been near flawless, with just one set dropped from qualifying. But Alex Bolt has been just as dominant, having completed a clean sweep of eight sets this week, and only given away more than four games in a set only once. The Australian is only chasing his first title at this level in four years and that drought and another stellar serving day should help him ease to victory.
