Born in 2003, the Moselle Open does not have a peaceful life, it must be said that he has experienced almost everything.
A move, a return to square one, a change of date, and above all on each edition a shower of more or less justified last minute packages.
Since it positioned itself in the last week of the ATP calendar, we could have thought that it was going to be the scene of a fierce fight for the last places in the Masters, but what is happening this year confirms it. but around it is empty.
Weighed down by the Laver Cup in his former life, he is diminished by a season that was too long or a lack of class on the part of certain champions.
And as if the cup wasn't full enough, Ugo Humbert, the defending champion, also threw in the towel. If certain packages are open to criticism, it must have been a real heartbreak for Ugo, born in Metz and who has always been loyal to the Moselle Open.
Already in a difficult situation, the Moselle Open does not deserve all this.
We therefore keep our fingers crossed as the table is even more than pleasant especially with the presence of Rublev, Ruud, Dimitrov, three top 10, there are not many ATP250s which do not present such a density.
