Fourth Round Draw (Top Half)

Zverev (1) vs. F. Cerundolo (14)The head-to-head record is 0-3. Cerundolo has been a tough opponent for Zverev. In their previous three encounters, Zverev lost all, but they were all on clay. Zverev is not weak on clay, but Cerundolo's hard court performance is not as strong. Therefore, we hope Zverev can take a victory on hard courts.

Rune (5) vs. Popelin (18).The head-to-head record is 0-1. Their only previous match was over two years ago at the 2023 Rome Masters.

Michelson (26) vs. LeheckaThe head-to-head record is 1-0. Both are American players and close friends. Currently, Lehecka is the only unseeded player in the top half of the draw.

Khachanov (11) vs. Ruud (8),The head-to-head record is 0-2. Ruud withdrew from the entire grass season due to injury and has just returned. We hope Khachanov can take this opportunity to score a win.
