Oscar Otte vs Gregoire Barrere will take place in the round of 32 of the 2023 Stuttgart Open on June 13.
Oscar Otte reached the pinnacle of his career in the middle of the 2022 season, with the grass season especially memorable for him. He reached the semifinals in Stuttgart and Halle, and then advanced to the third round at Wimbledon. These extraordinary achievements are especially significant for the German, who had never made a semifinal appearance on the main tour prior to 2022. It is critical for the world #141 to regain his previous form and achieve positive results in the coming weeks in order to avoid further damage to his ranking. However, given his current state, this task will be difficult. He is currently on a four-match losing streak and has yet to win a match.
Gregoire Barrere set personal bests on hard and clay courts earlier this year, and he now hopes to replicate that success on grass. However, Barrere has limited experience on the grass, having played only 26 matches on it in his career. Furthermore, he has not won a grass tournament since 2021. The Frenchman has previously competed in Stuttgart twice, with both campaigns ending in the qualifying stages against German opponents Dustin Brown in 2019 and Peter Gojowczyk in 2021.
