Paul vs Lehecka Head-to-Head

It’s the first-ever meeting between Tommy Paul and Jiri Lehecka. Paul’s game is more naturally suited to the grass, but Lehecka has been bulldozing his opponents and has a lot of power to take on the American, it’s not a clear advantage either way.

Paul vs Lehecka Prediction

Tommy Paul has been struggling since most of his success happened at the start of the year. He failed to capitalize on his early form due to physical issues. Jiri Lehecka is in a similar position, although more so suffering from a loss of form as opposed to injury.

In any case, both are in the third round of Wimbledon but the man with the more impressive path was without a doubt Lehecka, absolutely blazing 18th seed Francisco Cerundolo who is coming off his maiden grass-court title. Paul took down former Wimbledon finalist Milos Raonic, but it was one of his only matches played in a major in the last few years, in which Raonic still earned a set. It won’t be easy, but I think Lehecka is on a hot streak and has the potential to really excel on this surface as he looks ahead to the last 16 here at the 2023 Wimbledon Championships.
