ATP French Open R2: Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard vs Damir Dzumhur

🧠 Form & Context

🇫🇷 Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard

• 🏠 Home Hope: Earned his first-ever Roland-Garros win in R1, exorcising demons from last year’s five-set collapse.
• 📉 2025 Woes: After a Brisbane SF run, he’s gone just 8–10 at tour level this season, struggling with form and confidence.
• ⚠️ Serving Edge Diminished: His power game is less potent on clay. Bergs’ collapse helped more than his own dominance.
• ⏳ Turning Point or False Dawn? Needs to back up his R1 victory to silence doubts surrounding his 2025 campaign.

🇧🇦 Damir Dzumhur

• 🧗 Challenger Climb: Steady return to form, buoyed by ATP SF in Bucharest—his best result since 2018.
• 🎯 Tactical Advantage: Smart play dismantled Tirante in R1; thrives on consistency and angles rather than power.
• 💪 Slams Experience: 2–0 in RG R2 matches, and he’s no stranger to grinding out tough wins over younger, flashier opponents.
