The second seed fought back from disaster in the second set tiebreak, trailing 3-6 before winning four straight points to force a decider and eventually triumph in over two hours of grueling tennis. This remarkable comeback showcased the fighting spirit that has defined his season, which includes his breakthrough third ATP title at the Mallorca Championships just weeks before Wimbledon. The 28-year-old Dutchman captured that grass-court crown without dropping a set, defeating Corentin Moutet in the final to become the oldest champion in tournament history. His recent form has been impressive despite a disappointing first-round exit at Wimbledon, where he admitted to a “scandalous” performance against Jenson Brooksby. ⸻ De Jong – The Giant-Killer Jesper De Jong enters this encounter with serious momentum after his commanding straight-sets victory over eighth seed Vit Kopriva in the second round. The 25-year-old from Haarlem delivered a masterful performance, winning the first set in a tiebreak before sealing the match with authority despite facing multiple break points throughout. His breakthrough season has been marked by exceptional performances against top-level opposition, including his stunning upset of Alejandro Davidovich Fokina at the Italian Open where he demolished the world number XX with a dominant display. That victory elevated him to career-high territory on the ATP rankings, briefly reaching number XX and establishing himself as the Netherlands’ second-best player behind Griekspoor. De Jong’s clay-court prowess has been evident throughout his career, with his favorite surface producing his best results and most confident performances. ⸻ So… What Happens? This marks the second career meeting between these Dutch compatriots, with De Jong holding a surprising 1-0 advantage after his victory in the Montpellier quarterfinals earlier this year. The younger player defeated Griekspoor in straight sets during that indoor hard-court encounter, winning 7-6, 6-4 in what was a significant statement victory. However, clay presents a different challenge entirely, and both players have never faced each other on this surface, making this encounter particularly intriguing. Griekspoor brings superior experience and proven ability at this level, having reached XX ATP Tour quarterfinals compared to De Jong’s emerging presence on the main tour. The veteran’s recent title run in Mallorca demonstrated his capacity to perform under pressure and string together multiple high-level victories. However, De Jong’s fearless approach and current confidence make him genuinely dangerous against established players, as evidenced by his victories over higher-ranked opponents this season. The key battle will be Griekspoor’s veteran savvy and clay-court experience against De Jong’s breakthrough momentum and head-to-head psychological advantage in this all-Dutch showdown. ⸻ 🔮 Prediction: De Jong to win – His head-to-head advantage and current clay-court form give him the edge, though Griekspoor’s experience and fighting spirit will make this highly competitive. Upset watch: De Jong’s victory over Griekspoor in Montpellier and his recent giant-killing performances make him genuinely dangerous – if he can maintain his aggressive baseline game and capitalize on his psychological advantage, the younger Dutchman could pull off another statement victory. ⸻ 💸 Betting thoughts (safer picks): ✅ Over XXXX total games: ✅ Griekspoor handicap +2.5 games: 🟨 De Jong to win in X sets: XXXXX engagements  **Related Topics** [saving](/topic/saving) [Post Link](https://x.com/ml_previews/status/1945980781228126616)
