Juncheng, what are you doing?

We were expecting Juncheng Shang to start breaking diago again on Chinese soil, but it's a bit disappointing...

I don't blame him, but I think he's an engaging player, so I feel a little sad for him. What's wrong? He clearly lacks solidity. Both in his head and in his tennis, but the two are linked. He simply can't maintain his best level for a whole match. The good news is that he doesn't seem to have any more pain in his foot, and that's the main thing. But he needs to get back into the rhythm, and quickly. Because after Beijing, there's Shanghai and it's over for the Asians! Opposite, I like what Arthur Cazaux is producing at the moment. He's been going strong for a few weeks/months and playing matches after matches. It's going to pay off. What I like about him lately is that he puts a good burst of speed/pressure in important moments and has whistled a few matches like that. And that's very good against a Shang who lacks confidence and is playing in front of his home crowd. The matchup he doesn't like? Tirante ;). Brooksby... Shang's game will please him: pace, baseliner... Good for resisting with his mobility and playing disruption. Shang will also like his, and we risk seeing a very good match! Who will win?
