What Time Will Lorenzo Sonego Play Against Tristan Schoolkate?
Sonego and Schoolkate are on the Day 3 Schedule at Us Open 2025 on Tuesday 26 August 2025. Lets breakdown the career, past stats and recent form of these players and predict who will get the victory.
Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?
Lorenzo Sonego, an Italian tennis player, will be facing off against Australian wild card entry Tristan Schoolkate in their first-ever meeting. Sonego had a remarkable year in 2021, recording a personal-best of 30 wins and reaching a career-high ranking of No. 21. He clinched the Cagliari titles, becoming the first Italian champion on home soil in singles since 2006 and in doubles since 2005 with Vavassori. Sonego broke into the Top 50 after winning his first ATP Tour title at the 2019 Antalya, where he saved a championship point against Kecmanovic.
In the 2025 Australian Open, Sonego defeated former champion Wawrinka and Next Gen ATP finalists Fonseca and Tien to reach the quarterfinals at the age of 29. This achievement made him the oldest Italian Grand Slam quarter-finalist since Mulligan at the 1970 Roland Garros. Sonego continued his success by winning the 3rd singles title of his career at the 2022 Metz without dropping a set, including victories over former champions Simon and Hurkacz. Additionally, he captured his 4th title at the 2024 Winston-Salem.
A notable highlight for Sonego was upsetting No. 1 Djokovic 6-2 6-1 on his way to the 2020 Vienna final, becoming the first lucky loser to defeat Djokovic and conceding the fewest games ever to the Serbian player in a match. He also saved a match point against Thiem to reach the 2021 ATP Masters 1000 Rome semifinal, becoming the first Italian semi-finalist at Foro Italico since 2007.
On the other hand, Tristan Schoolkate had his first taste of success by earning his first PIF ATP ranking point at the age of 18 in 2019. He broke into the Top 200 in May 2024 and the Top 100 in August 2025 by defeating No. 49 Fonseca for the biggest win of his career, advancing to the second round of the Toronto Masters. Schoolkate made his ATP Tour debut as a wild card entry at the 2021 Melbourne-1 and reached his first ATP Tour quarterfinal at the 2025 Los Cabos.
With an 86-64 Challenger record (including 3 wins in finals), Schoolkate secured his first final and title at the 2024 Guangzhou, followed by victories in Brisbane-1 and Ilkley during the 2025 season. He peaked at No. 28 in the junior rankings, showcased by a run to the 2019 Australian Open boys’ doubles quarterfinal with Sweeny. Schoolkate is looking to claim the biggest win of his career, having only defeated one Top 50 player, Fonseca, in the ATP Masters 1000 Toronto first round.
