Libema Open: Hurkacz Powers Through Pain, Defeats Bautista Agut
Lexus ATP Head2Head: Poland's Hubert Hurkacz overcame a mid-match back injury on Wednesday to prevail on his debut at the Libema Open in 's-Hertogenbosch, advancing to the second round of the grass-court ATP 250 event with a hard-fought win.
The fifth seed moved past Roberto Bautista Agut 7-6(2), 6-4, making the most of the medical timeouts at 4-3 and 5-4 in the second set to treat his lower back. He nonetheless fired 16 aces and won 90 percent (45/50) of points behind his first delivery, according to Infosys ATP Stats, during the one-hour, 38-minute match.
“It’s my first time here and I’m really loving it,” said Hurkacz, who improved to 4-3 in his Lexus ATP Head2Head series with Bautista Agut. “It’s always nice to play on grass. Obviously, the end was a little bit tricky, but hopefully, I will be better tomorrow. [My back] hurts a bit, but I will do some work with the physio later.”
