The man from Malaga tried to use the “spoon” serve on several occasions and it worked for him in the first set, to save a break point, but not in the second, where he gave away too many service opportunities.
On the sixth break point, Lehecka made no mistake and raced to a 5-2 lead that Davidovich, the 2017 Wimbledon junior champion, was unable to hold back.
It was the second career win for the 21-year-old Czech, who made his debut last week Stuttgart. For Davidovich it was a setback in his attempt to reach Wimbledon as the top seed. The man from Malaga is currently in 33rd place in the ranking and will have to wait until there are casualties to be among the 32 best in all england club and have a more favorable picture.
