A spot in the next round is at stake on Thursday, when Jaume Munar goes up against Taylor Fritz in the Tokyo round of 32. Taylor Fritz is searching for form, having lost 2 in a row (6 of the last 10). Jaume Munar comes in at 6 wins from the last ten.

Fritz's 74.6% behind the first serve (against 68.7% for Munar) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. Fritz should have enough here, though Munar has the tools to make the scoreboard uncomfortable.
