Hurkacz plays anall-court game with an emphasis ondefensive baseline play, and former top 10 playerWojciech Fibak stated that Hurkacz is "an excellent, versatile player who can attack, accelerate and defend".[119] Hurkacz is a big hitter, given that he stands 196 cm (6’5"). He is an effective server, with a top serve capable of reaching 151 miles per hour (243 km/h),[120] and can hit powerfully from both his forehand and backhand. But like many of the tour's more powerful players, consistency has been described as an issue.[11] Hurkacz plays solidly from the back of the court. He plays a low, flat and dangerous ball, while holding the ball in court. Over the years, Hurkacz has also developed a reputation as a diver on court. Speaking of his unique moves, Hurkacz explains, "I always enjoy grass courts, when you play on the hardcourt or clay court it's probably better not to dive as when you're falling down from the dive you can scratch yourself, on the grass, it's pretty comfortable. Sometimes, trying to get to a ball which is pretty far away, you just have to do it."[121] He has also been described as aserve-and-volley player, especially on grass courts.[122] His coach,Craig Boynton, summarized Hurkacz's style by comparing it to that ofAndy Murray: "I think if you look at him, people have said he kind of mirrors Andy Murray with a similar routine on returns, a little bit of a similar backhand. He's a little taller than Andy. Andy's movement was phenomenal. But Hubi's a very good athlete, too."[6]
Despite all tennis players being taught to keep their eye on the ball, Hurkacz does quite the opposite. In a 2019 interview withL'Équipe, he admitted, "I confess, it's true, I close my eyes when I hit the ball. In fact, I've probably always played like that, and it's been a while since I've been noticed."[6]
In the early years (2010–2016), Hurkacz was coached by Filip Kańczuła. In 2017, he continued with Wrocław coaches Alexander Charpantidis and Paweł Stadniczenko, who shaped the tennis career ofMichał Przysiężny, while Przemysław Piotrowicz was responsible for physical preparation. In 2018, "Hubi" decided to work withNew Zealander Rene Moller, who appeared at his side during theNext Gen ATP Finals in Milan later that same year. Under his leadership, Hurkacz won theChallenger inCanberra and strengthened himself in the top 100. At the 2019 Indian Wells Open, Hurkacz began his coaching partnership withCraig Boynton, who had worked with players includingJim Courier,Mardy Fish,John Isner,Sam Querrey andSteve Johnson.[8] In 2024, following his early exit in round two of theUS Open, he split with his coachCraig Boynton after five years of collaboration.[123] In November 2024, Hurkacz announcedNicolás Massú as his new coach withIvan Lendl also joining the team as an advisor.[124]
