ATP French Open R2: Jacob Fearnley vs Ugo Humbert
🧠 Form & Context
🇫🇷 Ugo Humbert
- 🇫🇷 Home Pressure: France’s No. 1 has struggled historically at Roland Garros—only two main draw wins here before this year.
- 🤕 Recent injuries: Still working his way back from a hand fracture. Beat Christopher O’Connell in R1, but neither player was in top form.
- 🚀 Hot start to 2025: Won the Marseille title and reached the fourth round of the Australian Open before the injury halted his progress.
🇬🇧 Jacob Fearnley
- 🎓 College-to-Pro Transition: Just a year removed from college tennis, Fearnley is rising fast—already into R2 of both Slams he’s played.
- 🌱 Rapid clay adaptation: Despite zero clay-court experience entering the season, he’s gone 9–5 on the surface since April.
- 🎯 Favorable draw: Beat a 40-year-old Wawrinka in R1 and now faces a potentially vulnerable Humbert.
