Ethan Quinn vs Valentin Royer prediction
Ethan Quinn showed some encouraging signs at the Halle Open, as he recovered from a poor start to defeat Karen Khachanov in his first-round match. He then faced Ben Shelton and managed to take the match into a decider after winning the second set. The world number five would go on to win, but Quinn will hope he can maintain that level in Mallorca ahead of the third major of the year.
His first-round opponent is Valentin Royer. The Frenchman has not played since the start of the month, as he lost in the second-round of a Challenger event to Marco Cecchinato. Royer did take a set off Novak Djokovic in their match at Roland Garros last month. However, this season has been largely a struggle, as he has won just one tour-level match, and has lost 19 of his 31 matches in total.
Quinn will look to take control of rallies early with his aggressive first-strike game, and Royer could be vulnerable.
