This Saturday's programme at the Open 13 Provence will be of a very high level!
To qualify for the semi-finals, the first two players to face each other had to battle it out on centre court on Friday 24 February to win the third set tie-break. Hubert Hurkacz and Alexander Bublik spent a total of 5 hours and 12 minutes on court to meet in their sixth duel. The Pole, a former semi-finalist at Wimbledon 2021, will have to deal with the tricky match ahead of him. The Kazakh, an explosive player capable of beating the world?s best on any surface, will be looking for revenge after his defeat at the United Cup earlier this year.
The second semi-final will be 100 % French at the Open 13 Provence, like the one in 2021 between Ugo Humbert and Pierre-Hugues Herbert.
The 18 year old is in great shape and has been in great form over the last few weeks, having beaten Stan Wawrinka on Friday evening. He has reached the highest ranking of his career at the beginning of 2023 and will face Benjamin Bonzi, who has been very diligent since the beginning of his week in Marseille. At home, the Bonz is feeling good and intends to go all the way this year! This tricolour match is likely to make sparks fly!
