A spot in the next round is at stake on Friday, when Daniel Rincon goes up against Laslo Djere in the Braunschweig quarterfinal. Laslo Djere is 6-4 across recent matches. Daniel Rincon has won 7 of the last 10.

There is no history here: this is their first tour-level meeting.

The serve is where this match separates: Djere has been winning 72.2% of first-serve points to Rincon's 66.3%, and on clay that gap compounds fast. Little separates them; Djere gets the nod on the finest of margins.
