Aleksandar Kovacevic vs Grigor Dimitrov Prediction & Picks - ATP French Open
by Edgar Jibran in ATP French Open Picks
The first round of Roland Garros 2024 will start next Sunday, May 26th with a fascinating main-draw that will bring high quality matches since these early instances. In this regard, the introduction of one of the best performers in 2024, Grigor Dimitrov, is going to be very attractive for the tennis fanatics as he will face Aleksandar Kovacevic not before 04:30 am Central Time.
Reviewing on both players’ performances, it can be found that Aleksandar Kovacevic isn’t having a good level over the clay in 2024 as he only won 1 of his 7 first-round matches across different level tournaments, including Masters 1000, ATP 250 and even Challenger. Another important fact to remark is that he hasn’t competed against any top 10 ATP ranked player as Dimitrov, so his possibilities of advancing from the first round aren’t significant.
Meanwhile, Grigor Dimitrov appeared to be resting and preparing for this specific moment as he only disputed 3 tournaments over clay since April, and even when he wasn’t able to reach final instances in them, it cannot be forgotten the wonderful level he displayed during the first quarter of 2024 over hard surface, level that he must bring to the clay in order to be competitive in Roland Garros to keep within the top 10 of the ATP ranking.

Aleksandar Kovacevic - Grigor Dimitrov Key Points
- Aleksandar Kovacevic has a streak of 7 matches in a row in which he lost at least one set per match, fact that reflects his very low effectiveness when defending.
- Grigor Dimitrov carries a positive streak over the clay in 2024, as he has been able to win at least one set per match, so he only needs to adjust his mental strength in difficult scenarios.
- Aleksandar Kovacevic couldn’t advance from the first round in the 2023 Roland Garros edition, but he forced Novak Djokovic to dispute a tiebreak in the third set.
- Grigor Dimitrov has a very difficult challenge ahead as he reached the round of 16 in the prior edition of Roland Garros, so to overcome that line he must try to avoid extending his matches in these early rounds.
