Winner of Denis Shapovalov for his entry into contention at the ATP 500 in Rotterdam after a sluggish start to the season (eliminated in the 2nd round of the Australian Open and beaten at the start in Montpellier), Gaël Monfils could challenge Jannik Sinnr for a place in the quarter-finals if the recent winner of the Australian Open manages to beat local Botic Van De Zandschulp this Wednesday evening.
Asked after the meeting about a possible clash against the Italian, the Frenchman declared that it would be a good opportunity to see where he stands against one of the best players on the planet.
“Jannik will definitely want to win, he is a humble champion and it will be very difficult. But for me, it’s always a good opportunity to see how I perform against the best players on the tour. I have faced these types of players throughout my career. »
