World No.46 Ugo Humbert will take on the Spaniard Pablo Andujar in the First Round of the 2022 Barcelona Open on Tuesday, April 19.
Ugo Humbert is having one of the worst years in his career. It has been loss after loss for the frenchman and he is entering the Clay season with a terrible win-loss record. His only win in the recent 5 tournaments he played was against Aljaz Bedene in Miami. He went on to loose against the Russian Aslan Karatsev in straight sets. He played his first match of the clay season in the Monte Carlo Masters against Span’s Pedro Martinez and lost in straight sets. Ugo Humbert is naturally a good player in Hard and Grass courts. It is going to be a tough task for him to overcome the Spaniard Pablo Andujar in his least favourite surface.
The 36 year Pablo Andujar has played a lot of tennis in his career and most of his success were seen in clay courts. Andujar is playing good tennis this year and had a decent start to the clay season. In Rio open he defeated the higher ranked Albert Ramos Vinolas to make it to the quarterfinals, where he lost to Diego Schwartzman in three sets. His most recent clay court appearance was in the Marrakech Open where he beat Daniel Evans in the first round but he fell in round 2 to David Goffin. Being a clay court specialist and also having the advantage of playing in his backyard, the Spaniard will look to get past this first round contest.
