THE PREDICTION
World number 88 Steve Johnson came into Roland-Garros with little to no form and looked set to bomb out in three against fellow American Frances Tiafoe on Monday but he fought back admirably to win in five. That incredible result should give the 31-year-old all the confidence he needs to combat a strong assault from Brazil’s Thiago Monteiro, who overcame lucky loser Francisco Cerundolo in straight sets on Monday and this looks like one of the more difficult results to pick in the second round. Take Johnson to win at least a set in this match as the slight favourite for the win or take over three sets here if that option is available.
