Is this Holger Rune's best chance at a slam?

[geromino]

Apart from Musetti in R16, the path to the semis is clear. Rune holds a 2-0 H2H against Musetti, 2-2 H2H against Alcaraz including winning their most recent match in Barcelona, and 2-3 H2H against Sinner (1-1 on clay).

Path:
R128 Bautista W
R64 Nava
R32 Halys
R16 Musetti
QF Tiafoe?
SF Alcaraz
F Sinner

Correct. Rune has 2025-2039 RG on lockdown.

Most likely not going past Musetti.

He went out in the 4th round at RG last year, and I'd say it was a slightly easier run, he lost to Zverev in 5 but Zverev went on to make the final. I just can't see anyone beating Sinner/Alcaraz back to back

Is that on the yellowbrick road as well?

Yeah i have Musetti taking him out.

 

[leodevlin]

No

The kiddo might win or lose, but we will talk about him no matter what because he has an exciting game style and his matches have the most drama. Some hate him and some love him, but very few are indifferent to him.

Exciting is a stretch. I didn't find Andy Murray exciting as well. This guy is worse than Andy and likely similar to zverev.
