Alex Michelsen vs Gael Monfils prediction
Alex Michelsen will be targeting another deep run as he looks to make waves on grass this year.
The American has reached the final of Newport in each of the past two years and was also a quarter-finalist in Mallorca 12 months ago.
The 20-year-old has a solid game for the turf with a huge serve and thumping groundstrokes as well an ability to volley proficiently.
This will be the youngster’s first clash with the 38-year-old Monfils, who has an abundance of experience on grass and has a similarly big game as well as being a fantastic mover who is happy at the net.
La Monf often has purple patches so the key for Michelsen will be consistency if the seventh seed is to avoid an upset.
Alex Michelsen vs Gael Monfils tip: Over 2.5 sets
