Yannick Hanfmann vs Quentin Halys Prediction

Both men have been imperious on serve all week, but I’d have to back Hanfmann to make it to the title match. The German’s movement, serve placement and an otherwise unorthodox game have been the cornerstone of his success on clay. He’s the likelier to fashion break point chances in this match and potentially convert them.
