A lucky lucky loser!

Hugo Grenier is lucky loser for the second time in Barcelona after 2022! He lost in 3 sets against McDonald, which proves once again that a lucky loser is always dangerous!

And it will be in very different conditions I think with light rain today compared to the 30 degrees on Sunday in which he lost his 2nd qualifying round against Shang. Not great Hugo who serves well, big forehand and a little wet sometimes (best performance last year on earth in Madrid, normal). However, he has really progressed this year, notably with his collaboration with Stéphane Robert. And once again, a lucky loser is afraid of nothing. For his part, the hyena Baena as I like to call him, confirmed his good feelings in Marrakech. He says he feels at home there! He's been playing well there for a few years, I even wonder if he hasn't found a little lease there 😅. Afterwards, strangely, the Spaniard never really performed in Barcelona. Strangely, because he is at home and has participated 9 times already. Now, his power deficit must certainly play tricks on him in one of the slowest tournaments on earth. He will surely ride his wave of confidence from Marrakech but will not have the same level. In my opinion, it all makes for a closer match than on paper. Let's check the odds right away 👇
