Both Gael Monfils and Jakub Mensik were extremely impressive in their quarter-finals wins at Doha last night, but I’ve got the Czech player rated about a 50% shot to beat Monfils.
This is due to a combination of strength of schedule as well as my overall doubt in Monfils’ ability to perform on the latter stages of tournaments.
The 37-year-old was rock solid against Humbert, but I found Mensik’s efforts against the top seed, Rublev, to be nothing short of brilliant.
His resilience from the baseline is rock solid, and his backhand looks pretty well unbreakable.
