Cristian Garin has won 2 ATP titles, 4 Challenger titles and 8 Futures titles. Currently ranked 37th in the world, he is a rising star. Garin moves fast on the court and is consistent with his shots. Furthermore, he places the ball well and has a variety of shots. He plays his best on the clay court. Garin also rises to the occasion when needed and seems to be built to play five-set matches with ease. The fact that he has saved a match point seven times in 2019 and gone on to win all those matches shows how well he can handle pressure.

He is placed in the same draw as Stefanos Tsitsipas and Roger Federer. Though he has some stiff competition in the earlier rounds, his impressive track record in the clay-court season makes him a player to keep an eye on.
