+3.5 sets?
That seems like a good idea at first glance. But let's dig a little deeper anyway...
We’ve found Arnaldi again, guys! He just needed a Challenger win in Italy, and off he goes again! More seriously, I really saw him trying hard ever since Monte Carlo. He worked like crazy to get back to his level. So I don’t think this is just a temporary good spell.
On the Griekspoor side, his level is coming back too. But still no big win on clay this year. He’s got good memories from last season right here, but even at his best, he often has dips in form within his matches.
I think we mainly need to talk about the match-up here. We always like it when Arnaldi is in a defender’s position, but if his opponent comes to the net a lot, it’s a different story. They’ll be playing on an outside court, court 7, so a bit more favorable to the Dutchman. And I admit his profile scares me a bit here. So I’m not going to poke at the ML but...
