Predictions
Samuel Gill, Head Editor of TennisUpToDate.com sees Hubert Hurkacz as the champion.
I see Hubert Hurkacz being crowned as the champion here. He showed early promise in his return at the United Cup and I see him, Ugo Humbert or even Arthur Fils finding their way back into contention here.
Albeit it is always a tournament that is a bit unpredictable as most of the players for instance this time are not really in a huge amount of form. So the winner is very much up for debate. But that often makes for the best tournaments.

Lucas Michael, Editor for TennisUpToDate.com sees Ugo Humbert as the potential champion in Montpellier.
The Open Occitanie marks a return to the indoor hardcourt surface after players enjoyed the feeling of returning outside Down Under. Here, I see a Frenchman returning to winning ways on home soil.
There are a good few to pick from, but the prior indoor hardcourt form swings me to Ugo Humbert. He missed the last part of 2025 due to injury, failing to defend his Paris Masters final from 2024. Aside from that, he made the final of the Stockholm Open before retiring in the semi-finals at the Swiss Indoors. With already another final to his name in 2026 at the Adelaide international, he will be one very tough player to get the better of.
The player he lost to in that final, Tomas Machac, is also making a swift return to action in Montpellier after a third-round exit in Melbourne. He is on good form, already moving back up the rankings as he sneaks back into the top 30. More progression could be on the cards, but it will be tough.
The number two seed will be Dutchman Tallon Griekspoor who is yet to pick up a singles victory in 2026 and is getting impatient waiting for his first success in the year. Someone who has been winning on his return is Hubert Hurkacz. The Pole led his nation to United Cup success in his first tournament in six months and will be looking to continue his positive form.
Talking of return, many eyes will be focused on Arthur Fils attempted comeback. The Frenchman got into the headlines last year with some great runs in big events, but injury halted his year. He opted to skip Davis Cup qualifiers to compete in Montpellier as he looks to get back to his best form.
Overall, I believe that the two Adelaide finalists go into it as the players to beat, with Humbert my pick for silverware.
