Marcos Giron vs Alex Bolt preview

Second-seeded Marcos Giron of the USA will take on Australian Qualifier Alex Bolt in the quarter-final of the 2024 Hall of Fame Open.

Giron has a 16-17 record for the season, meaning the American didn't have a smooth run this year. Giron had a mediocre 5-4 record on the grass this year, reaching the quarter-final of the Terra Wortmann Open before losing to Hubert Hurkacz.

Apart from that, Giron mostly has bowed out of opening rounds in the events that he has played in the season. One other notable performance from the American was to reach the final of the Dallas Open, where he lost to compatriot Tommy Paul.

Being the second seed, Giron received a bye in the first round of the Hall of Fame Open. He defeated Benoit Paire in the second round after recovering from being a set down.

Alex Bolt has only played three matches in the main draws of events in the 2024 season. His only win came in the first round of the Adelaide International when the Australian defeated Thiago Seyboth Wild. He lost to the top seed Tommy Paul in the next round.

Bolt has given a good account of himself at the Hall of Fame Open so far. He defeated Jakub Mensik in the first round. He caused an upset by defeating fifth-seeded Brandon Nakashima in the second round in straight sets.

Marcos Giron vs Alex Bolt prediction

Giron has not shown any exemplary form in 2024. However, the American's performance has been slightly better with a 6-4 win ratio while playing on grass. In his previous match against Paire, Giron mostly relied on his first serve, as won 74 percent of his points. The match was close as Paire was only three points adrift from Giron in the match.

Bolt, on the other hand, has shown some good form, as he has beaten two players who are way above the Australian in rankings. He was in good serving form against Nakashima as he won 74 percent of his first serve points and served 9 aces in the match.

Being the top seed, Giron will be the favorite for this match. However, Given Bolt's current form the Australian might be able to take a set off the American.
