No.1 seed, Stefanos Tsitsipas, meets Alexander Bublik in the semifinals of the 2020 Marseille Open. Will it be smooth sailing for Tsitsipas or will Bublik spoil the party?
Stefanos Tsitsipas remained extremely composed in his straight sets victory over Vasek Pospisil. Tsitsipas was absolutely incredible on his serve and he was able to not give Pospisil even an opportunity throughout the match. Tsitsipas is determined to win again here in Marseille and playing like he did against Pospisil will only aid him in that feat. Tsitsipas is strong, tall and he has the mentality of a champion, he knows he can win again here.
Alexander Bublik came out with a very bold statement the other day, saying that he hates playing tennis and that he only plays for the money. This statement scares me as this means you never know what you're going to get from Bublik, if he will play well or if he will be a Bernard Tomic type player. Bublik however dug deep in his quarterfinal match against Denis Shapovalov in a match where both players were very bad.
This will be the first meeting between both players and it is going to be a very tough encounter for Alexander Bublik. Bublik will not be able to play around with Tsitsipas and he does not have the same determination to play hard. Expect Tsitsipas to come out firing like he did against Pospisil and win this match.
Stefanos Tsitsipas to win.
