Gael Monfils vs Jack Draper prediction
Gael Monfils produced yet another comeback in front of an adoring home crowd as he came from two sets down to beat Hugo Dellien. The veteran needed treatment to his hand and knee and was staring down the prospect of a first-round exit. However, the Frenchman came back to win 4-6 3-6 6-1 7-6 6-1 on Court Philippe Chatrier. He takes on Jack Draper in round two.
Draper made a slow start against Mattia Bellucci but came back to win his first ever match at Roland Garros. The world number five won 3-6 6-1 6-4 6-2. His serve became increasingly more effective as the match wore on, as he won 92% of points on his first serve in the second set compared to just 58% in the first.
This is likely to be an entertaining encounter between the two, with Monfils set to receive wonderful support once more. Nevertheless, Draper has the weapons and the game to overpower and outlast the veteran and reach the third-round for the first time.
