THE PREDICTION

32-year-old Grigor Dimitrov moved back inside the top 10 this week, for the first time since 2017, after finishing runner-up to Jannik Sinner at the Miami Open. The Bulgarian has now reached two Masters finals, and five finals overall, since joining up with joint-coach Jamie Delgado last summer as he looks rejuvenated on tour to suggest the best of his career could yet come. This looks a wholly winnable opener over Monegasque wildcard Valentin Vacherot on Monday, with the home hopeful playing his first tour-level match of the year here at a career-high world ranking of 138th. Dimitrov played some scintillating tennis two weeks ago to stun Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev back-to-back and it should take a player of that ilk to stop him this week. Back him to win in straight sets.

TIP: GRIGOR DIMITROV TO WIN 2-0
