Upset alert ?
Félix is in sketch mode, and I don’t think I’m the only one who’s worried...
Yeah, we’re really starting to know our Félix. When it’s this laborious, it rarely gets much better afterwards. Sometimes he does turn back into the clean top-10 Félix we know, but it’s been a few matches now that this has been going on. And against a guy who’s not afraid of anything like Atmane, and who’s locked in right now, of course there’s something to try. And even if the Frenchman hasn’t had to take out any big in-form players, and he can be pretty moody (both on court and during his matches), I think the conditions (American hard court, up against a big-name player, really focused at the moment...) are right for him to at least bother Félix. One big thing could worry me here though: Félix’s aggressiveness. I don’t really like it when Terence doesn’t have much time to set up. You’ll tell me he beat Rinderknech, but Arthur didn’t play very well and he’s a lot less mobile than Félix. On the other hand, I’d be surprised if the Canadian didn’t have any lapses at all during the match...
