His topspin-heavy forehand and serve are potent weapons on clay. With a title last week, he will feel confident about his chances against Tsonga.Jo-Wilfried Tsonga also possesses a few big weapons of his own. The Frenchman's serve is key, as he tends to win easy points behind it. His movement, though, is nowhere near the desired level, and that could prove to be the difference-maker in this match.Tsonga will look to clobber some forehands and big serves coming in the match. However, Ruud's superior match fitness, form and willingness to engage in long rallies should help him sail through.Prediction: Casper Ruud to win in straight sets.Also Check Out :- French Open 2022 Schedule
