Stuart had the beating of the Tunisian a couple of times in the UTR Pro series in France last month. that he can reproduce that form in a Futures match.
Yes he can!

Brilliant from Stuart. Despite lockdown he does appear to have stepped up a level.

The quarters, sadly, a round too far for young Stuart:

Stuart won just 24% of points on his second serve in that match, and served only 2 of 6 first serves while facing breakpoint. Definitely something to work on!

Pity no further for Stuart but with his total of 6 points from SF last week and QF this week he will push up to a new CH, provisionally at 718.

Certainly that's more in keeping with his results over the last few months, if not today, and hopefully he can keep pushing on.
