Pronostic ATP Open d’Australie
1st round of qualifying for the Australian Open with next night the Frenchman Grégoire Barrère who starts his campaign in a duel against the young American Learner Tien.
At the age of 19, Learner Tien hopes to explode on the ATP circuit during the 2025 season. The American has strong potential that he still needs to refine but the first outings for this season have been interesting. Engaged in Next Gen at the end of December, a tournament bringing together the best players under 20, the 122nd player in the world reached the final, notably beating Jakub Mensik, Arthur Fils and Alex Michelsen. Successes against players already confirmed on the circuit which gave confidence and certainty to the young American. If the Hong Kong tournament ended in the first round against Cameron Norrie, Learner Tien did not forget that the main objective was the qualifications for the Australian Open which he will start next night against Grégoire Barriere.
After a laborious 2024 season with checkered results which ended up ejecting him from the world top 100, the Frenchman attacked the year 2025 in a much more positive manner. Present at the Nonthaburi Challenger, the French Tennis player reached the final, a good omen before starting qualifying for the first Grand Slam of the season. In difficulty last season on hard, Grégoire Barrère hopes to regain his true level on this surface, a mandatory condition to be able to pass this first round of qualifications.
