One of the most exciting games of this Hong Kong Open RO32 has to be the game between Tomas Martin Etcheverry vs Valentin Royer. World no 56 and 57 will go head to head for the first time in a game that should be a close one. Let's get into this match prediction!
Etcheverry is on the hunt for his first ATP singles title here in Hong Kong. His closest shave in recent times was the 2025 Hamburg Open, where he lost 2-1 to Flavio Cobolli, the eventual winner. Etcheverry has exited his last two tournaments in the RO16, with the latest being to Alexandre Muller in the Athens Open.
Although Tomas did just hear Jean-Lennard Struff in a Davis Cup singles match (2-0). Valentin Royer, who boasts a rank higher, is entering as the underdog. Royer has lost his last three singles, exiting in the qualification final of the Paris Masters, the RO64 of that same tournament, and lately, the RO32 of the Metz Open.
Royer came close to a title three times last year, reaching the finals of the Zarar Challenger, the Bratislava Challenger, and the Hangzhou Open. Just as Etcheverry is determined to make a deeper run, Royer is also gunning for another final appearance.
