Team Analysis

Felix Auger-Aliassime

Auger-Aliassime has not had great success after his transition to clay, the only highlight being his participation in the quarterfinals in Monte Carlo. However, at Roland Garros, the Canadian has overcome two previous rounds with victories over Altmaier (4-6, 6-4, 4-6, 6-1, 7-6) and Burruchaga (4-6, 6-0, 7-5, 6-1). As can be seen, he has not been able to maintain a regular and stable game in these matches, Félix has entered the game with difficulty, losing the initial set on both occasions.

Brandon Nakashima

Nakashima, like many Americans, does not achieve great results on clay. This season he has not had a great performance on clay: before Roland Garros, he had not made it past the first round in any of the four tournaments played. However, in Paris, Brandon is playing very well so far and has already made it through two rounds. He boasts a convincing victory over Bautista-Agut (6-2, 7-5, 6-2) and a five-set battle against Van Assche (6-7, 6-4, 5-7, 6-1, 6-3).

Auger-Aliassime has a class advantage, but the Canadian has never been characterized by a stable game on clay. This could be seen in his two opening matches in Paris, where he dropped sets. Nakashima also does not show excellent results on clay, specializing more on hard courts, like many Americans. However, Brandon has enough practice on clay to avoid a heavy defeat today, and he also plays well on his serve.
