Match camcelled due to the withdrawal of Alex de Minaur through injury
Australia's Alex de Minaur is seeded fifth for the men's singles at the Paris Olympics. He has a tough first round match as he faces unseeded German Jan-Lennard Struff. Let's look at the match in depth and provide you with our prediction on who'll win.
The winner of this match will be up against either Sumit Nagal of India or France's Corentin Moutet in round two, both unseeded. De Minaur is sixth in the live rankings and a place below that in the ATP Race. This is his first tournament since Wimbledon.
He made it to the last eight in that Grand Slam but had to withdraw due to injury. The Olympic tennis tournament is being played at Roland Garros on clay. The Australian reached the quarter-finals this year at Roland Garros, his second clay court quarter-final this year.
De Minaur beat Struff in round three of this year's French Open. That match went to four sets and another long match between the two looks likely here. He leads the German 4-2 in previous matches and they're 1-1 on clay.
Jan-Lennard Struff is at 34th in the live rankings but was as high as 21st last year. He is playing in his third Olympic Games but has never made it past the last 32. Earlier this month he got to the semi-finals of the clay court tournament held in Gstaad.
He has won one ATP Tour clay court final this year. That came in Munich in April, winning four matches without dropping a set. This could well be one of the best matches in the first round and we go for over 21.5 games to be played.
