Stuttgart Open 2022: Stefanos Tsitsipas vs Dominic Stricker preview, prediction and H2H stats

Despite an impressive start to the year, Stefanos Tsitsipas has often shown that he is one to struggle on grass. He is probably the only player in the top 10 who is uncomfortable on this type of court. The Greek star is now in line to face a tricky opponent in the fourth round of the German competition in the form of Dominic Stricker. The Swiss tennis player has been under the radar for quite a while. Stricker cruised past his qualifiers by beating Aslan Karatsev before getting past Maxime Cressy in round one with a dramatic comeback.
