For the Dutchman, the upcoming tournament is the second tournament on clay this season. The first was the competition in Marrakesh, where Botik lost in the first match to Australian O’Connell in three sets. In Monaco, the Dutch tennis player played one match and with some difficulty eliminated Hungary’s Martin Fucovich from the tournament, defeating him in three matches with the score 3:6, 7:2, 6:1 in two hours and 39 minutes. During the match, the Dutchman served four double faults twice, scoring 67% on the first serve and 51% on the second. Acceptance stats: 35%/51%, winner/enforcer stats 16/16.

Kasper Ruud retained his fourth place in the ATP rankings thanks to his victory in Estoril, and has now climbed to third place, surpassing last year’s Monte Carlo winner Stefanos Tsitsipas. Recall that Kasper Ruud played four matches in Portugal, eliminating local player Souza, Argentinian Baes, Frenchman Gali and Serbian Kecmanovic. It’s probably too early to say that the Scandinavian is at the top of his form, but you can see that Kasper has moved away from a disastrous start to the season and is gradually gaining momentum.
