A choice which may seem strange in view of the health situation, especially in this region and in a tournament which, as we already know, will take place behind closed doors. However, even though the tournament Montpellier has often succeeded for the French, who played a quarter in 2018, a half in 2017 and a final in 2013, lost to a great Richard Gasquet, we must admit that the game of the 28th world lends itself perfectly to clay. Maybe also a way to get away from it all and save yourself from the pressure of the player playing at home.
