Marozsan on his way?
The Hungarian played on fire during the 2 American Masters 1000, reaching 1/4 and 1/8ᵉ. Will he ride the wave?
His R1 against Luca Van Assche was rather clean even if it should be taken with hindsight because the Frenchman was ill and did not have the usual energy. Also, it might not seem like it, but Marozsan loves the land. It is on this surface that he cut his teeth in the professional world, and that he even revealed himself to the general public by beating Alcaraz in 2 sets in Rome (odds at 20.08 😮). This is the first time he plays for Barcelona. He will play a pure Argentine landman who also revealed himself to the public with his victory in Buenos Aires 2 months ago. The guy beats everyone as an underdog and in straight sets! Since then, he hasn't earned as much, but it's still solid in my eyes. As a good self-respecting Argentinian, he is a fighter capable of absorbing Jarry's power or attacking Coric with his left-handed paw. I'm really curious about the match up that this will give. Marozsan will of course stick to his line and distribute. Diaz Acosta will do everything to move him. The Hungarian is certainly a better player today, but yesterday he played his first match on clay of the season, where the Argentinian is at 18. They will play on the very friendly Andrés Gimeno court, in the post- noon, and under the overcast and cold sky (~15 C°) of Barcelona. These conditions slightly favor the Argentinian who will be able to defend better on heavy ground. Very interesting match therefore, which I will watch with relish. He depends greatly on Marozsan, he is the one who has the keys. He can dominate head and shoulders with his greater range of punches, and can also be taken into a real fight that only the Argentinians have the secret to!
