Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?

In the upcoming match, Stan Wawrinka from Switzerland will be facing Pedro Martinez from Spain. Wawrinka currently leads the head to head record with a 1-0 advantage. Their previous encounter took place in Acapulco, Mexico on a hard court, where Wawrinka emerged as the winner with a score of 6-4, 6-4. Another meeting between the two occurred in Bordeaux, France on a clay court, with Martinez defeating Wawrinka with the same scoreline of 6-4, 6-4.

Wawrinka, 40 years old, is currently ranked as World No. 161. He achieved his career-high ranking of No. 3 in 2014, and during 2014-2016, he ended the year as No. 4. However, he has faced multiple injuries, including two left knee surgeries in 2017 and two left foot surgeries in 2021. Despite these setbacks, Wawrinka boasts impressive accomplishments, such as defeating five World No. 1 players at Grand Slams. Notably, he won the finals of the 2014 Australian Open by defeating Nadal, the 2015 Roland Garros by defeating Djokovic, and the 2016 US Open by defeating Djokovic once again. He is also one of only three players to have defeated Djokovic, Federer, Murray, and Nadal at Grand Slams.

Throughout his career, Wawrinka has won a total of 16 singles titles, with a remarkable streak of 11 consecutive wins in finals from 2014 to 2016. In 2014, he clinched his sole ATP Masters 1000 title at Monte-Carlo, defeating his fellow Swiss player Federer. Additionally, Wawrinka won the doubles gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics alongside Federer, and he contributed to Switzerland’s triumph in the 2014 Davis Cup.

For Wawrinka, this match provides an opportunity to reach his 113th tour-level quarterfinal. If successful, it would be his first quarterfinal on clay since reaching the 2023 Umag final. Furthermore, he would become the oldest man to reach a tour-level quarterfinal on clay since Rosewall achieved this feat at the 1977 North Conway tournament. Wawrinka also aims to extend his impressive record of advancing to an ATP Tour quarterfinal for the 21st consecutive season since 2005.

The provided text also includes a list of players aged over 40 who have reached ATP Tour quarterfinals since 1980. Notably, Jimmy Connors achieved this at the age of 40 and 42, and Feliciano Lopez reached a quarterfinal at the age of 41 in 2023.

Turning our attention to Pedro Martinez, he is 27 years old and currently ranked as World No. 47. He reached his career-high ranking of No. 36 in February 2025. Martinez saw significant progress in his career after winning his first ATP Tour title at the 2022 Santiago tournament in February. He broke into the Top 50 and then the Top 40 by May 2022. Notable victories in his career include defeating No. 16 Bautista Agut at the 2021 Kitzbuhel tournament and defeating No. 8 Ruud en route to the 2024 Estoril final, which marked the biggest win of his career.

In 2020, Martinez stood out by qualifying for six tour-level events, including the Australian Open, Rio de Janeiro, Rome, and Roland Garros. He also earned his first tour-level win at the Australian Open and recorded his first ATP Masters 1000 win at Rome. Another milestone in his career was reaching the third round of a Grand Slam at Roland Garros.

Martinez’s success extends to the Challenger level as well, with eight of his 13 career finals taking place on home clay in Spain. Notable titles he won include the 2020 Marbella, 2021 Seville, 2023 Maspalomas, 2024 Girona, and 2024 Valencia tournaments.

In terms of recent performance, Martinez looks to reach his 17th ATP Tour quarterfinal. Clay has been a favorable surface for him, as this would be his 12th quarterfinal on this surface. He aims to secure his second quarterfinal of the year after reaching the Buenos Aires tournament semifinals. As the Spanish No. 3 player, Martinez is currently seeded in the Top 3 at an ATP Tour event for the first time in his career. He hopes to break a five-match tour-level losing streak and record his first win since ending former-World No. 8 Schwartzman’s career in Buenos Aires.

The match between Wawrinka and Martinez will take place on Court 1.
