The 2014 Munich Champion Martin Klizan trails the H2H 0-1 against the Korean youngster (ATP Munich 2017). Their previous meeting was very closely fought and considering Klizan’s current form, he could once again push the world #22 Hyeon Chung.
Hyeon Chung News
Playing his first match since the Miami Open, Hyeon Chung looked ever so comfortable as he dispatched the wildcard entrant Matthias Bachinger in straight sets, 6-1 6-1.
This is Hyeon Chung’s second consecutive quarterfinal appearance here at Munich. In 2017 (debut appearance), he defeated Martin Klizan (next opponent) in the quarterfinal before losing to Guido Pella in the semifinal.
This is also the 21-year-old Korean’s seventh consecutive quarterfinal appearance of the season. Apart from facing the second round defeat at Brisbane in the first week of January, he has made at least the quarterfinal in all other seven tournaments that he entered so far in 2018.
However, Heyon Chung lost five of the previous six quarterfinal matches with the only win coming against Tennys Sandgren in the Australian Open. He will now be hoping to end his poor record in the quarterfinals.
