Denis Shapovalov arrived in Paris with some decent a few decent matches on the clay, but a lot of first-round losses.
But in the first round, he ran into a player rounding into relatively late top form – a “strong like bull” German named Jan-Lennard Struff who serve-volleyed his way to a straight-sets victory.
They met again a couple of weeks later – on grass, in Stuttgart.
Same result.
