Tomas Machac and Ugo Humbert, both unseeded, will face off in the semi-finals of the 2024 Japan Open. This match scheduled for Monday, will mark their first meeting. Here are some stats plus a likely prediction of this match.
Tomas Machac is having his best season at tour level and is now one win away from another tour final. Before this season, the Pole had never played a tour final. In Geneva, he managed to set a new personal record and finished as runner-up.
Now, he will look to go all the way and secure his first ATP title. Machac defeated qualifier Alex Michelsen in straight sets in the last round. His 18th win on hard courts improved his record to 30-19 and moved him up to 33rd in the live ranking.
Ugo Humbert has been at this stage of a tour event multiple times in his career. He will therefore have experience going for him here. The Frenchman has won six titles in his career and has never lost a tour final.
This year, he has won two titles, in Marseille and Dubai. He did lose in the semis in Hertogenbosch. To advance to this round, Humbert defeated Jack Draper.
The 26-year-old, who has compiled a 31-20 record, won the first set before Draper was forced to retire in the second. He has yet to relinquish a set in Tokyo and has now moved up two places to 17th in the live ranking.
The winner here will play either Kei Nishikori, Holger Rune, Arthur Fils or Ben Shelton in the final.
