Ugo Humbert

The 24-year-old Ugo Humbert did not have a great start to the year. He was ousted in the first round at the Australian Open and suffered the same fate in the following three tournaments as well. Humbert made it to the round of 16 at the Lyon Open and Halle Open.

The World No. 110 reached the third round at Wimbledon. He found some form in the Challenger events that followed. Humbert is coming into the tournament on the back of a triumphant campaign in the Challenger event in Rennes. He defeated the 2020 US Open champion, Dominic Thiem, in the final.

Benjamin Bonzi

The World No. 61 has won a couple of Challenger events this year. Bonzi reached the semifinals at the Open 13 and the Mallorca Open. He did have a fair number of first-round exits but overall, it has been a decent year for the 26-year-old.
