ALEXANDER ZVEREV VS JAUME MUNAR PREDICTION
Alexander Zverev returns to Roland Garros and will be haunted by memories of his French Open defeat at the hands of Carlos Alcaraz just a few months ago. That five-set loss was the closest Zverev has come to winning a Grand Slam event and it will only serve to motivate him even more.
He played his hometown Hamburg Open a couple of weeks and was the best player that week. He lost in the final in that match to Arthur Fils and was clearly rattled by the Frenchman’s antics which saw him serve underarm when Zverev had him on the racks. The game turned and Fils won the last set tiebreak with Zverev raging.
He will need to get his head straight and focused if he is to go far this week. He meets Jaume Munar in the first round and he is a player he has never beaten on the ATP Tour previously. Munar won their only meeting in 2019 but that will not phase Zverev.
This tournament offers Zverev a golden chance to get a prestigious title under his belt and he has been playing some exceptional tennis this year. He should get the win and progress here.
