During the clay swing, Richard Gasquet suffered a string of defeats. These included a particularly disheartening defeat at the Bordeaux Challenger, where he was completely shut out by his compatriot Ugo Humbert, losing a set 6-0. He also lost in the first round of the French Open to Arthur Rinderknech, who was not in the best of form at the time.Despite a recent slump in form and unfavourable results, the former French #1 remains optimistic about his prospects for the coming weeks, owing primarily to his expertise and experience on grass. He has established himself as a skilled grass court player with 81 career victories on this surface.
Christopher Eubanks has had a busy start to the grass season this year, having played four matches. Last week, he advanced to the second round of the Surbiton Challenger after defeating Benjamin Lock in three sets and Radu Albot in straight sets in the ATP Stuttgart qualifiers. This year, the American has had a largely positive performance, which has likely contributed to his current sense of confidence. He reached his career-high ranking of #74 after reaching the quarterfinals of the Miami Masters a few months ago, and he recently defeated Holger Rune in the French Open.
