Tomas Etcheverry will take on No.18 seed Alex de Minaur in the second round of the French Open

Etcheverry has been in good form and is coming to Paris at the back of a runners-up finish at the Bordeaux Challenger tournament.

The Argentine definitely prefers playing on clay and he will certainly fancy his chances of going deep into the tournament. However, there is certainly no room for complacency especially on a stage like the French Open. It will be interesting to see if he has what it takes to pull off an upset against 18th seed Alex de Minaur.

Alex de Minaur’s form coming into the match

Alex de Minaur has had a stellar 2023 so far and is high on confidence. The major highlight of his season was the title-winning campaign at the Acapulco Open, where he defeated top seeds like Holger Rune and Tommy Paul in the process of being crowned the champion. The Australian has been very consistent this year and he will look to maintain his rich vein of form in Paris as well.

It remains to be seen how far the Australian can progress in this clay-court Grand Slam.
