Barely two weeks after Stefanos Tsitsipas’ new defeat to Ugo Humbert in the round of 16 at the Tokyo Olympics, the two men meet again, this time in the second round. of the Masters 1000 in Toronto.

The French, solid winner of Lorenzo Sonego this Monday for his entry into the running, aims for a third victory in as many confrontation against the new 3^e world player. Exempt from the first round and finalist of the tournament in 2018, the latter will necessarily be keen to erase his Olympic setback even if it will be difficult for him to reverse the trend so easily.

Defeated for the first time by Humbert at the Masters 1000 in Paris last November after a huge psychological battle of 3:20, Stefanos knows he is expected by the Habs following statements that had not fallen on deaf ears …

Scheduled at 1am French time, this match already smacks of powder between a vengeful Greek and a Messin who will have absolutely nothing to lose.
