Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?

Jakub Mensik, a 19-year-old player from the Czech Republic, is currently ranked as the world number 54 and has achieved a career-high ranking of number 45. In 2025, he had a record of 7-4, reaching the quarterfinals in Brisbane and Auckland. Mensik is making his debut at the Acapulco tournament, with no previous matches played there.

Mensik made his breakthrough in February 2024 when he entered the Top 100 rankings after reaching the quarterfinals, semifinals, and final in Doha. His career-high ranking of 45 came in February 2025 when he defeated the 6th-ranked player, Ruud, to reach the third round of the Australian Open.

His notable performance in Doha also included victories over former champions Murray, Monfils, and the 5th-ranked player, Andrey Rublev. This victory marked the biggest win of his career and made him the youngest Czech ATP Tour finalist. He also became the first man born in 2005 or later to reach an ATP Tour final.

In his debut at a tour-level event, Mensik reached the third round of the US Open in 2023 as a qualifier. This achievement made him the youngest man since Nadal in 2004 to reach the third round of a Grand Slam tournament. He also reached the third round of the US Open in 2024 and the Australian Open in 2025, narrowly losing in both matches after having match points.

Mensik has a record of 30-21 in Challenger matches and won his first Challenger title at the Prague-2 tournament in May 2023 when he was ranked 333rd. On the ITF Juniors circuit, he had a record of 85-28 and reached the final of the boys’ singles event at the Australian Open in 2022.

It is worth noting that Mensik has an impressive record of 12-1 in the opening rounds on hard courts throughout his career. His only loss was to the 31st-ranked player, Cerundolo, in the first round of the Beijing tournament in September. Mensik is aiming for his third top 30 win of 2025, having defeated the 21st-ranked player, Shelton, in the second round of Auckland, and the 6th-ranked player, Ruud, in the second round of the Australian Open.

On the other hand, Tomas Machac, aged 24, is currently ranked as the world number 25 and has achieved a career-high ranking of number 24. In 2025, he has a record of 7-3, reaching the quarterfinals in Dallas. This is Machac’s debut at the Acapulco tournament.

Machac broke into the Top 100 rankings by the end of 2022 and reached his career-high ranking in February 2025. He reached his first ATP Tour final in Geneva in 2024, where he defeated the number 1 player, Djokovic, marking the biggest win of his career. He also upset the 2nd-ranked player, Alcaraz, to reach his first ATP Masters 1000 semifinal in Shanghai.

Representing the Czech Republic, Machac reached the second round of the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, defeating Sousa. He also had victories over Zhang in the first round of the Paris Olympics in 2024, as well as winning the gold medal in mixed doubles with Siniakova.

Machac has a record of 110-54 in Challenger matches, including winning back-to-back titles in Orleans and Mouilleron le Captif in October 2023.

Interestingly, Machac’s favorite sports team is the Chicago Bulls, and his hero is Michael Jordan, despite the fact that he was born two years after Jordan’s last game as a Bull in 1998.

Notably, Machac is participating in his second ATP 500 event of 2025, having reached the quarterfinals in Dallas earlier in the month. In this match against Mensik, both players will face a countryman on the ATP Tour for the first time. The winner of this duel will become the first Czech man to reach the second round of the Acapulco tournament since Dlouhy in 2007, who defeated Di Mauro in the first round but lost to Ferrero in the second round.
