Matchup analysis
The 🤖 Servebot archetype wins about 53% vs 💥 Big Hitter across 5,728 matches in our dataset. That is a small stylistic lean for Alex Bolt here.
Servebot players often use high ace rate and dominant service to pressure the big hitter's power groundstrokes. On Grass, that can swing with conditions.
