Gasquet Beaten By Kovacevic in Phoenix

Richard Gasquet is 8-7 for the season, losing in the second round of his most recent tournament in Phoenix to Aleksandar Kovacevic. It is the fourth time that the Frenchman had lost in the round of 16 this season –  a worrying trend that the veteran will look to address in Miami.

Gasquet had begun his season with defeat in Adelaide in that incredible marathon match against Marcos Giron. But he came full circle in Auckland a week later where he sensationally defeated Cameron Norrie to win the title – his first on the ATP Tour in five years.

However, that was the end of the winning sequence, with the 36-year-old unable to back up his results from Auckland and losing to up-and-coming stars such as Sinner, Arthur Fils, and Ugo Humbert.

Gasquet is returning to the Miami Masters for the 13th time. Since he made his debut at the tournament precisely 20 years ago, the Frenchman’s best result was in reaching the semifinal here in 2013.

O’Connell Gets In A Lucky Loser

With a spate of withdrawals at this year’s Miami Masters, Christopher O’Connell has been granted entry into the main draw as a lucky loser.

The Aussie had lost in the second round of qualifying to Japan’s Yosuke Watanuki in straight sets. But he has replaced the injured Jack Draper in the main draw.

O’Connell has actually recorded some strong results in the main draw of the ATP Tour, reaching the quarterfinal in Doha where he earned a mammoth win over defending champion Roberto Bautista Agut and reached the round of 16 in Dubai.

He hasn’t played a main draw match since falling to Alexander Zverev in Dubai, losing in the qualifying rounds at each of his last two Tour-level tournaments.

Gasquet v O’Connell Prediction and Tip

It is a battle of one-handers with both players hardly hitting their stride of late. We like the games market in this one, with the veteran Gasquet having a slight edge in the money line.
