Steve Darcis - Dominic Thiem

Last year's champion spent most of this season out due to a foot injury. They only returned in July and played against Duckworth, Etcheverry, and Bellucci. The player from Kienas is gradually returning and there is nothing better for Asians than to play in their own country. They will definitely have enough motivation to defend their points from last year. The only question mark is their physical form, but Junchenas mentioned before the tournament that they are fully prepared. I believe in the talent of the Chinese player and if there are no physical issues, I think they can easily take care of business here.
