Juan Martin Del Potro will take on Ivo Karlovic in the first round of the French OpenYou can watch and bet on live streaming tennis at bet365With two ATP titles to his name for 2011, it looks like Juan Martin Del Potro has made a successful return from injury this season. With 27 wins from 34 matches this year, the Argentine enters Roland Garros in solid form, and with every chance of making a decent run. He’s already clawed his way back to No. 26 in the world rankings, and a few victories in France will help him in his bid to re-establish himself as a top ten player.
Del Potro’s first round opponent this week will be the Croatian veteran Ivo Karlovic. Karlovic isn’t usually at his most effective on clay, though his height and power of serve might be enough to trouble Del Potro. With 10 wins from 22 matches this season, Karlovic has been in reasonable form. Even so, it looks like he’s up against it here.
Following a sole meeting back in 2007, Karlovic has a 1-0 head to head record against Del Potro. This match took place on grass, when Del Potro was only 18. This time around, the match looks likely to pan out differently, and Karlovic will have to be at his best to stop the Argentine on Monday.
