Head To Head

Lloyd Harris and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina meet for the first time in a game of tennis. Unfortunately for Davidovich, the hard court surface is Harris's favourite and his least.

Harris is currently ranked 31st in the world, and Davidovich Fokina is ranked 43rd.

Lloyd Harris Form

Lloyd Harris is having his best year to date on the ATP tour. He has risen from 90th in the world at the beginning of the year to a career-high of 31st.

Since Wimbledon, Harris has had good form on the hard courts, winning 10 of his 16 matches.

He defeated Rafael Nadal in the round of 16 on his way to the quarter-finals at Washington and beat three players ranked inside the top 30 during his quarter-final run at the U.S Open.

The South African has fired down 510 aces this year, 379 of those on the hard courts. That ranks him 5th on the ATP hard courts aces list.

Alejandro Davidovich Fokina Form

Alejandro Davidovich Fokina has won twice in his last six games on the hard courts, including his first-round win at the 2021 BNP Paribas Open.

The clay-court specialist has won just 31% first-serve return points on the hard courts this year.

Matched against Harris's big serve, the Spaniard will need to improve on that statistic dramatically to have a chance of winning.
