Benoit Paire is a tricky player who can cause problems for most opponents. His serve is rather hit and miss, but on the rare occasions it fires, it's a formidable weapon in his arsenal. His backhand is rock-solid, but his forehand is a huge liability. He also has the tendency to implode mentally when things do not go his way. Casper Ruud, on his part, will look to dictate the play from the back of the court using his heavy forehand. The World No. 8 has tightened other aspects of his game as well and has no real weaknesses on clay. All things considered, he should have little trouble downing the mercurial Frenchman and advancing to the quarterfinals. Pick: Casper Ruud to win in straight sets.
