The 29th edition of the
Open 13 Provence in Marseille takes place at the Palais des sports de Marseille next week, gathering a solid field of title contenders.
Boris Becker, Yevgeny Kafelnikov, Roger Federer, Andy Murray, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Robin Soderling, Juan Martin del Potro and Nick Kyrgios have all won the title here, with
Daniil Medvedev and
Stefanos Tsitsipas as the top seeds. After an early Rotterdam exit, Medvedev plays Yannick Hanfmann or Egor Gerasimov in the second round before a possible quarter-final clash against
Jannik Sinner.
Karen Khachanov and Yoshihito Nishioka lead a weak second quarter, with Alejandro Davidovich Fokina and
Ugo Humbert as the seeded players in the third, alongside the three-time champion Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. The two-time defending champion Stefanos Tsitsipas should meet Kei Nishikori in the quarter-final in another thrilling encounter to watch.
