Holger Rune vs Sumit Nagal Prediction & Picks - ATP Monte Carlo Masters
by Edgar Jibran | in ATP Monte Carlo Masters Picks
The seventh top seed of the Montecarlo Masters 1000, Holger Rune, is going to make his debut in the 2024 edition next Wednesday, April 10th, 2024, not before 03:00 am Central Time in a very interesting match against Sumit Nagal, an emergent tennis player that has been climbing in the ATP ranking during the most recent months.
With this context in mind, Holger Rune definitely needs to forget about the very bad performance that he had in the hard surface for almost 3 months, where he only was able to reach 1 final at the beginning of the year, but he lost in that instance against Grigor Dimitrov in Brisbane. Additionally, he accumulates 2 consecutive losses in the preview of this match, so he must overcome this bad streak to try to conquer the first Masters 1000 of the clay season.
On Sumit Nagal’s side, this Indian player is prepared for this challenge as he has faced a very complicated draw during the Qualifiers, where he was forced to defeat 3 players that currently are on better spots in the ATP ranking such as Cobolli, Diaz and Arnaldi. With that said, Nagal is definitely not going to give up easily against a top 10 player as Rune, but he needs to avoid having a long match.
