Tabigold

Not at all a good part of the draw for Tabilo who could meet Alcaraz in the third round and the matches before are far from being won in advance in addition!

I kept Tabilo as a potential outsider in the back of my mind given the monstrous season he's having, no luck, his chances of a medal are compromised with this draw. But he's a Chilean who plays with his guts and his heart, he represents his country and will give his all, I have no doubt. I think the conditions at Roland are not pleasant for him given his aggressive and enterprising game, he prefers it when it's fast to be able to make his serve and his attacking game speak. Does it benefit Safiullin a little more on the other hand? Not at all, it's even worse given that the Russian tries even more and is not the most dangerous on earth. He too is a fighter who will give his all, he's a big guy to watch!
