"Even without playing well, I'm capable of hanging with the best. So just imagine if I play well."

I really don’t know where I stand with the Belgian Zizou Bergs. He’s currently in a good dynamic, he’s training well. The work he’s done with his friend Jannik Sinner is paying off. But he’s still not consistent. He’s capable of showing his worst side in certain matches, especially when he’s facing a player who causes him problems by making his power and heavy hitting a bit less effective. I’m thinking of the German Zverev in Monte Carlo, the Italian Cobolli in Munich. There are also matches like the one in Madrid against Cilic. The Belgian started his match very well, then gradually faded. I categorize him as a very good player until he’s bothered. Either a player rushes him and attacks more than he does, or someone plays the role of a wall. He loves switching from defending from far behind the baseline to aggressively attacking in a single shot, especially with his lefty forehand. I think the Frenchman is also inconsistent. And he too is in a good period right now. On the clay in Rome, with a Belgian who is coming in after his final in Aix-en-Provence, I would still highlight the Frenchman’s ability to defend well and to be able to pin his opponents in the backhand diagonal as a left-hander.
