Alex de Minaur vs Alexander Blockx prediction
Alex de Minaur booked his place in the second-round of the French Open as he got past Toby Samuel. De Minaur was broken just once and conceded only two break points in total as he won 6-4 6-4 6-2 after one hour and 52 minutes. The Australian suffered early exits in Madrid and Rome, but he found form at the Hamburg Open last week as he won three matches in a row to progress to the last four.
He now takes on Alexander Blockx. The Belgian comfortably defeated Coleman Wong in straight sets. Blockx was not broken on serve and won 83% of his first serve points as he won 6-3 6-4 6-2. He enjoyed a breakthrough in Madrid as he made it all the way to his first Masters 1000 semi-final.
De Minaur leads the head-to-head 1-0 after beating Blockx in two tight sets at the Monte-Carlo Masters last month. Blockx is improving at an impressive rate, and this is a testing match for De Minaur.
