Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?

Quentin Halys, a 28-year-old tennis player from France, is currently ranked 90th in the world and has achieved a career-high ranking of 61st. He had a successful junior career, earning his first ranking point at the age of 15 in 2012. He entered the top 200 in 2015 and finally broke into the top 100 in 2022. His career took a significant turn when he reached his first ATP Tour quarterfinal at the 2023 Auckland tournament, which allowed him to achieve his career-high ranking.

At the 2024 Wimbledon, Halys, ranked 220th in the world, qualified for the main draw and made it to the third round. In the following week, he went on to reach his first ATP Tour final in Gstaad after coming from the qualifying rounds. One of the highlights of his career was when he saved three match points to secure his first top 20 win against Alex de Minaur in the fourth round of the 2023 ATP Masters 1000 Miami, eventually losing to the champion, Daniil Medvedev.

In 2022, Halys had an impressive record in the Challenger circuit, with a win-loss ratio of 43-10. He won titles in Pau, Lille, and Ismaning, and notably defeated the future World No. 3, Stefanos Tsitsipas, on his way to winning his second career Challenger title at the 2018 Quimper tournament. During his junior career, he had a successful run, ending with a runner-up finish in the boys’ singles at the 2014 US Open and winning the boys’ doubles title at the 2014 Roland Garros with his compatriot Bonzi.

Turning 28 just a few days ago, Halys has earned victories against former World No. 8 Cameron Norrie in the first qualifying round and Buyunchaokete in the second qualifying round. He has a record of 4-22 against top 30 players in his career, with a 1-4 record in 2024, his sole victory coming against No. 22 Karen Khachanov in the second round of Wimbledon. He is now seeking his first ATP Masters 1000 win since the 2023 Shanghai tournament, where he defeated Aslan Karatsev in the first round but lost to Andrey Rublev in the second round.

Francisco Cerundolo, a 26-year-old tennis player from Argentina, is currently ranked 29th in the world and has achieved a career-high ranking of 19th. In 2022, he broke into the top 100 for the first time and reached a new career-high ranking 11 times. He reached his highest ranking of 19th in June 2023, shortly after reaching the fourth round at the 2023 Roland Garros, where he defeated eighth-ranked Taylor Fritz.

Cerundolo made a significant breakthrough in July 2022 when he defeated fifth-ranked Casper Ruud on his way to winning his first ATP Tour title in Bastad. Just a week later, he reached the semifinals in Hamburg, defeating eighth-ranked Andrey Rublev along the way. In 2023, he captured his second ATP Tour title in Eastbourne, becoming the first Argentine grass court ATP Tour champion since Javier Frana in 1995.

A notable achievement for Cerundolo was when he reached the semifinals of the 2022 Miami tournament as the 103rd-ranked player, becoming the lowest-ranked semifinalist in the tournament’s history. Additionally, he was the first player since Janowicz in 2012 to reach the semifinals in his ATP Masters 1000 main draw debut. Tennis seems to run in Cerundolo’s family, as his father, Alejandro, also played professional tennis, his younger brother, Juan Manuel, won the 2021 Cordoba title, and his sister, Constanza, played for the Argentine field hockey team that won a gold medal at the 2018 Youth Olympics.

Cerundolo is making his third appearance in Paris, with his best result being a run to the third round last year. In the first round, he saved a match point to defeat Gael Monfils, and in the second round, he caused an upset by defeating eighth-ranked Casper Ruud. He is now just two wins away from reaching his 100th career win (98-87).
