–

After just one event last week, with it being Davis Cup week, the ATP Tour returns full force with three – indoors on hard in Marseille and Dallas, and outdoors on clay in Cordoba.

Despite being a 250, Marseille has an impressive field, which includes both Canadians – Auger-Aliassime and Shapovalov.

And Gasquet v Bautista Agut, a battle of mid-30-somethings once at the top of the game but now scrambling to get back there, was the spotlight evening match.

Former top-10s Goffin and Pouille battled it out … in the qualifying.
