A spot in the next round is at stake on Thursday, when James Duckworth goes up against Jiri Lehecka in the Stuttgart round of 16. Jiri Lehecka has won 6 of the last 10. James Duckworth comes in at 2 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.
Jiri Lehecka simply rates much higher on grass, and our number follows from it. Duckworth comes in off a compressed schedule. If Lehecka plays anywhere close to a normal level, this ends in relatively comfortable fashion.
