Matchup analysis
The 🏹 Frontrunner archetype wins about 54% vs 💥 Big Hitter across 574 matches in our dataset. That is a small stylistic lean for Alex de Minaur here.
Frontrunner players often use fast starts and aggressive openers to pressure the big hitter's power groundstrokes. On Grass, that can swing with conditions.
