It will be a battle of the qualifiers when Benjamin Hassan and August Holmgren meet on Thursday at the Brawo Open. The winner of this quarterfinal tie will play either top seed Daniel Altmaier or unseeded Franco Agamenone next. Benjamin Hassan is through to the quarterfinals at Braunschweig for the second time. He has never progressed from this stage before but with how he has performed on clay, he will fancy his chances. The Libyan has won 28 matches in total in 2023 with 19 of his victories coming on clay. To book this first-ever encounter with Holmgren, he defeated Timofey Skatov in three sets. It was his first dropped set in the main draw and the second in the competition. He is currently ranked 260th in the live ranking which is a career high for him.
August Holmgren is a strong performer on clay but hasn’t dominated on the surface this year. He has won six of the 10 fixtures he has played on clay with the latest being a 2-1 success against Adrian Andreev. The Dane is making his debut in Braunschweig. And having also defeated seventh seed Jaume Munar in three sets, he will be confident of a title challenge. Holmgren has had a topsy-turvy campaign and his 17-13 record attests to this. Despite this, he has managed to win a title in Nottingham in the ITF circuit. He too is up to a new career high and is ranked 387th in the live ranking.
