T. Griekspoor

Player Overview

T. Griekspoor has proven himself a reliable competitor on the ATP circuit, boasting a career win percentage of nearly 60% and a solid Elo rating of 2046. His recent performance, however, has been lackluster, with a win rate of just under 52% over the past two years. With a stable trajectory, Griekspoor’s serve is a critical asset, reflected in his first serve win percentage at 72.8%. His ability to deliver under pressure will be essential against a formidable opponent.

In his last outing, Griekspoor secured a convincing victory over S. Shimabukuro, winning 2-1 in sets. However, he struggled against Ze Zhang in a recent match, losing 0-1, indicating inconsistency. As he heads into this match at ATP Halle, Griekspoor must find a way to maintain his focus and capitalize on his serve to counter Shimabukuro’s rising form.
