In the semifinals of qualification for the tournament in Cordoba, Frenchman Maxime Janvier will play against Nicolas Harry from Chile.
Nicholas Harry
This year, the 26-year-old representative of Chile has not played at all. And Harry finished the last tennis season on a clay challenger in Sao Paulo. In Sao Paulo, Nicolas reached the quarterfinals, where he lost to Argentine Juan Pablo Fikovic – 2:6; 6:7 (5:7). This tournament was at the very beginning of December, and therefore we can assume that Harry has not played official matches for two months.
Maxime Janvier
The 25-year-old representative of France, in turn, was in France at the very beginning of this week. At the home challenger in Kemper, Maxim safely lost to his compatriot Luc Puille in the match of the 1/16 finals – 6:3; 6:1.
Nicholas Harry and Maxime Janvier played together in 2018 at the challenger in Australia. On hard, the Frenchman was expected to be stronger, but then he was considered an outsider in the match – 6:2; 2:6; 7:6 (7:5).
Forecast
It is difficult to say how Maxime Janvier will rebuild after the flight from France to Argentina, and he also needs to quickly prepare for the game on the ground. But, given that Nicholas Harry has not played official matches for a very long time, the Chilean will also have a lot of problems on the court. Therefore, we still suggest putting it on Janvier, who is at least in the game tone.
