Tomas Martin Etcheverry vs Nuno Borges prediction
Tomas Martin Etcheverry’s best form on clay was found during the South American swing, as he won the Rio Open and advanced to the last four in Buenos Aires. His record on the surface in Europe has not been quite as impressive, with his best result being a round-of-16 appearance in Madrid. Nevertheless, the Argentine is ranked inside the top 30 and is a former quarter-finalist at this major, achieving the feat in 2023.
He faces Nuno Borges in the first-round. The Portuguese’s best outing on clay this season was a quarter-final appearance in Barcelona last month. Borges last competed in Rome but lost in the second-round to Rafael Jodar in straight sets.
There could be momentum shifts in this one, but Etcheverry has proven himself on this surface on more occasions, while he is also very comfortable playing long and physical matches, which also gives him the edge.
