Hubi gets his act together!
But we're staying on clay, let's calm down. Even if he leads 4-1 against Shapo? Yes yes, leads if he leads 4-1 😅
Absolutely all their matches have been played on hard courts already. And how strong is Hubi?! It's the last 30 meters! Oh no, I'm confused. It's its ground coverage and its solidity. Not a great match up for Shapo. In any case, in my opinion, this largely explains their history of results. Now, what do we have today? A new surface: clay already, but not just any clay, the slightly heavier one of Simonne Mathieu in cloudy weather and very cool temperature for the last day of May. Who does this favor? Hubi who is capable of making the back wall. I always say that if he was little, he would be De Minaur 😅. That's already a lot of arguments on Hubi's side. In terms of fitness, we can highlight the fact that Shapo has been very diligent and serious about the task since his return from injury. He will be less whimsical than usual, will swing less in the tarpaulins. But you also have to keep your personality. Against Tiafoe, he saved 20 break points and conceded only one, on a double fault. We can count on Shapo to be there, and Hubi is not a reference, neither on heavy clay, nor in Grand Slam. What should we prioritize? I will keep the match-up to Hubi's advantage but be careful with my bet because Shapo is hungry...
