Is Foki already capable of that?
The Spaniard has just announced his comeback with an almost perfect match against Carreno, maybe he can already take on Ruud?
A completely different opponent is waiting for him tomorrow, Carreño was really an excellent draw given how weak the Spaniard is on this kind of clay. Foki played super well and in the end it didn’t even feel like a comeback match. The thing is, there was nothing up against him and that won’t be the case tomorrow, he’s facing the defending champion who just destroyed Munar 6/0 6/1. The Norwegian is particularly good in these conditions and with his intention to be even more aggressive, he really has the perfect profile to perform this week.
Foki has also already played really well and produced some big performances in Madrid, but often in night sessions with a super fired-up crowd, and above all he was in top physical shape. Right now he’s mainly looking for rhythm for the coming months, and seeing him perform tomorrow against this kind of opponent would be a real surprise. Match is first on the schedule as well, that’s when there’s the least atmosphere and I think that’s a real negative point for him.
3/3 in the H2H, really tight matches, quite a few tiebreaks, I do think that a good Foki is strong enough to compete pretty much anywhere. Once again, the real question is whether he’s capable of doing that as soon as tomorrow.
