German teenager Diego-Dedura-Palomero takes on unseeded James Duckworth in round one of the BOSS Open in Stuttgart. The 18-year-old has been given a wild card and is a clay court specialist. James Duckworth has far more experience on this surface and our prediction is he'll win in straight sets.
A tough match awaits the winner against fourth seed Jiri Lehecka in round two.
Diego Dedura-Palomero has won 27 matches this year but 24 have come on clay courts and in lower level tournaments. The teenager is 261st in the live rankings, three places below his career-high. This is his first grass court tournament and has never won a match on any surface on the ATP Tour.
James Duckworth reached the quarter-finals here two years ago. He will want to do better than last year when exiting in the first round. His best run at Wimbledon came in 2021 when reaching the third round. His pro debut was made two years before his opponent was born.
The 34-year-old is 80th in the live rankings. He has won 16 of his 30 matches played this year. On grass, he had a 5-6 record last year but won ten out of 15 in 2024. He has had title success on the Challenger Tour this year but that was on clay.
