Lexus Eastbourne Open - Eastbourne

An ATP 250 on grass in Eastbourne, alongside Mallorca as the last grass week before Wimbledon. The grass stays low here, so rallies are short and the first strike decides. Breaks are scarce, which puts tiebreaks and overs in play and leaves a seed more exposed than the ranking suggests. Flat hitters who move forward belong on it, and best of three keeps the margin thin.
