Cerundolo operates as a reactive player who reads the court and constructs points through positioning and shot selection rather than raw power. The hard court surface has treated Blockx more consistently over his recent sample, while Francisco Cerundolo will need his defensive instincts and court sense to manage Blockx's aggressive baseline tempo.
