Ben Shelton vs Pierre-Hugues Herbert prediction
Ben Shelton takes to the grass on the back of a solid clay swing.
The third seed has the big-hitting game to make a serious impression on the surface this year having not quite hit the heights his athleticism and power suggest he can do on the turf.
First up, it’s a clash with qualifier Pierre-Hugues Herbert.
The Frenchman progressed after Damir Dzumhur retired with Herbert leading 6-4 3-0 in the last round, but will face a real step up in class now.
The 34-year-old sits at 132 in the world and is on the rise again this year, but it’s still hard to make a case for him beating a fast moving and hungry Shelton.
