–

For the second straight week in France, Canadian Denis Shapovalov gets French lefty Hugo Gaston in the first round.

Shapovalov took quick care of Gaston last week in Montpellier. So he’ll be hoping to inflict the same kind of punishment this week in Marseille.

As well, Andy Murray will get at it again, against a youngster in Czech Tomas Machac who has played some excellent tennis this year.

(Marseille is 6 hours ahead of EST, Cordoba two hours ahead, and Dallas an hour behind)
