Taking on Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic in Monte Carlo last week proved the right thing to do but sadly this column’s picks failed to take advantage.
Cristian Garin, at a whopping 250/1, had a chance when the draw opened up but he lost to eventual champion Stefanos Tsitsipas at the last-16 stage.
Punters face a similar oppose-or-not decision this week with both Nadal – here in Barcelona – and Djokovic (in Belgrade, see below) quickly back in action.
Both will want to put the disappointment of last week firmly behind them as they bid to build momentum on the road to Roland Garros which begins at the end of next month.
Nadal heads to Barcelona, where he has won no fewer than 11 times, following defeat to Andrey Rublev in the Monte Carlo quarter-finals.
The heavier evening conditions didn’t help the Spaniard in that match-up but the scheduling at what is effectively his home tournament is unlikely to be unkind this week.
