Pronostic Rolex Paris Masters
Last Frenchman on the list after his exploit against Carlos Alcaraz, Ugo Humbert will play his place in the last four of the Masters 1000 at Paris Bercy against the Australian Jordan Thompson.
There will indeed be a Frenchman in the quarter-final of the Masters 1000 at Paris Bercy! However, Ugo Humbert did not have an easy task inheriting Carlos Alcaraz, tournament favorite. But the French tennis player delivered the big performance of his season or even his career in a boiling Accor Hotel Arena to take out the number 2 seed. A feat that confirmed the two performances against Marcos Giron and Brandon Nakashima and which will allow him to play for a place in the semi-finals today! Finalist in Tokyo a month ago, the 18th player in the world has regained his best level in front of the French public and this Friday, he will face Jordan Thompson to validate his ticket in the last four.
The Australian is lower ranked than the French (28th) but underestimating him would be a big mistake. Author of his best career season, the Sydney native reached the 1/8 finals at the US Open in September, his best performance in a Grand Slam. In constant progress for two years, Jordan Thompson demonstrated it again this week in Paris. Winner of Pedro Martinez in the first round, the Australian then took out Casper Ruud, 8th player in the world. A feat confirmed in the round of 16 by dismissing the Frenchman Adrian Mannarino in a fight that the Australian was able to win thanks to better management at the end of the set. This Friday evening, Jordan Thompson will still have to keep his nerve against an offensive Ugo Humbert and an audience committed to the cause of the tricolor.
