Earthling in distress?
It's true that we don't feel Carlito is super comfortable. Less impactful in the exchange and in his movements, he had to raise his level of play in the good moments against Rinderknech because he was not far from going out the back door. How fast will he progress on grass?
When you're 20 and you've already won a Grand Slam, you can say that you learn pretty quickly. Fortunately, because in terms of playing on grass, Carlos still has some up his sleeve, if I may say so. But no matter the surface, he'll remain aggressive and play impeccable tennis when he's up against the wall. That hardly makes him a guy you want to find value against...
What's more, opposite, Father Lehecka plays clean and rhythmic tennis, which will tend to make Carlito shine more than anything else. Huge forehand as well, it smells of backhand diago in 80% of the exchanges. Now, we've seen him fall twice and hurt himself a little. It makes you wonder if he'll show up for the match because we generally avoid the slightest little risk when approaching a grand slam.
