Arthur Fils - Joao Fonseca

Now, the young tennis player is returning a bit. Fils lost unexpectedly in the final here last year. I fully believe that this year he wants and can take the title. The court speed here is similar to Paris, which I think suits his playing style. Fonseca himself is not the typical South American player who mainly plays on clay. He can also play on hard courts, but there is a complete mismatch for Fils here. We're talking about an ATP high-level player and a Challenger-level player who is trying to break into the higher ranks. Fonseca's main weapon is his forehand. If he gets comfortable balls, he can easily end points with a winner or hit them out and make unforced errors, but Fils himself will most likely be dictating points here, especially through his serves. I don't think there will be too many problems for the Frenchman. The first match may feel nerve-wracking for Brazil. Experience will also have an impact, I believe. I hope for an easy win for Fils.
