The BMW Munich Open continues on Tuesday with the schedule confirmed for 16 April, 2024 as the action continues in the German clay court staple on the ATP 500 calendar. Our preview looks ahead to the main clashes to watch as well as the leading talking points ahead of Munich continuing.
A good slate of Centre Court action is upon us on Tuesday with Felix Auger-Aliassime set to take on Maximillian Marterer. The Canadian reached the third round at the Monte-Carlo Masters losing out to Lorenzo Sonego and he will aim to continue that on as an unseeded player in Munich. Marterer on the otherhand has been losing first rounds most week including against Dominic Thiem who has shown no form at all this season.
Yannick Hanfmann will aim to show more of a sign for the home hopes as he faces off against eighth seed Alexander Shevchenko in the other leading tie. Shevchenko has been in no form and hasn't reached a quarter-final since Rotterdam. Hanfmann has been winning games, but mainly through qualifying to main draw such as last week when he lost to Arthur Fils after winning two matches prior. The biggest chance of a home hope win on Tuesday.
Other matches include Dominik Koepfer facing off against Cristian Garin, while Marc-Andrea Huesler ends off the schedule against Marko Topo. Botic van de Zandschulp, Christopher O'Connell among others play on the outside courts in Munich on Tuesday.
