Arthur Gea and Tristan Schoolkate meet in the round of 16 at Newport on Thursday. Arthur Gea comes in at 3 wins from the last ten. Tristan Schoolkate comes in at 6 wins from the last ten.
The two have never played — a first meeting always adds a layer of uncertainty the numbers can't fully capture.
Neither the serve numbers nor the ratings separate these two by much, which is why our number stays close to even. Gea comes in off a compressed schedule; Schoolkate comes in off a compressed schedule. Little separates them; Gea gets the nod on the finest of margins.
