 Welcome back to Tennis Talk. My name is Cam Williams and we have a tournament in France this week on the indoor hardcourts an ATP 250 event the Macelle Open in Metz this week actually got cancelled last year because of the COVID-19 virus, but it's back again this year and we've got some big names playing but some big names have also pulled out So let's go to the withdrawal list. So having a look at the names that have pulled out of this one And it's all the young guns Elcores. He is not playing this event Goffin has also pulled out Nishioka and also Sinner has pulled out of this event as well All right, starting at the top of the draw We have eight seeds in this one and the top four seeds get a buy in the first round her catch the Miami Open champion Of course Wimbledon semi-finalist. He's number one seed. He gets a buy in the first round He'll take on the winner of either the wild card Puy or a qualifier who are going at it in the first round Then we got another wild card Barre versus Pospasoul winner of that match takes on one of the best first-round matches in the tournament the wild card Andy Murray takes on the number six Seed umbear in the first round circle that one is one to watch that is a very big blockbuster match Then we have the number four seed Diminore having a buy in the first round He'll take on the winner of Rindanik versus Giron who are going at it in the first round Then we've got the veteran gas gay taking on a qualifier in the first round winner of that match takes on either another Qualifier or the silver medalist at the Olympics the seventh seed hashten off in the second round So I pretty stacked half of the draw here with some big unseeded players and also some obviously great Seeded players players to watch out for gotta watch out for her catch I mean he's had a very good season this year actually playing for a spot in the ATB finals that are happening only in a couple of months time So got to keep it on her catch also Diminore who hasn't had a great season It's been a bit up and down at a great start to the year It hasn't had a great season in the last couple of weeks So this smaller tournament might be able to help him get into some form and also interested to see how Hashinob does in this one as well Because obviously won the silver medal at the Olympics So interested to see if he can back that up because didn't play great at the US Open actually lost very early on in the first couple Of rounds so interested to see if he can rebound at a small tournament like this And he does like playing on the indoor hardcourts bottom half of the draw now We've got the number eight seed Baselash Ville taking on MAGA in the first round winner of that match takes on either Fakina or Simon in the second round then we've got a qualifier vs. Chekinado winner of that match takes on the French local excitement machine number three seed mom feasts Who gets a buy in the first round then we got number five seed Sonny go taking on foot you bitch Winner of that match takes on either martinez or Poprin in the second round Then we've got shardy vs. Strouff winner of that match takes on the number two seed Karinia Buster So again some big names in this one It's actually a pretty stacked event for such a small event with an ATP 250 of course place to watch out for you Gotta watch out for the big seeds Karinia Buster and mon fees Especially mon fees in front of his home crowd a tournament that he should do well out Especially being an indoor hard court as well interested to see how he plays because his season hasn't been that great And this is a tournament that is primed for him to do well out But also keeping an eye on Baselash Ville because here's one of those dangerous players that in a small tournament like this Where it's very even between the top seed and some of the unseeded players There's not much of a gap he could really sneak through the draw especially being in the bottom half I would not be surprised if he gets to the semi finals and even make the final So watch out for Baselash Ville in this one as well. So there it is the Macelle open We didn't get it last year it was cancelled last year of course because of the virus But it's back again this year and it's pretty stacked compared to previous years I mean you've got guys like Andy Murray playing all the seeds like her catch you got Karinia Buster playing Mom feces playing I mean it's a pretty stacked event for such a small tournament as an ATP 250 But let me know down in the comments below Who do you think's gonna win this one because it is such a small tournament with some big names? It's one of those tournaments where it may be an unseeded player wins it Maybe a low seed wins it like I said with Baselash Ville or maybe you'll bear you gonna watch out for those guys Let me know down the comments below. Who do you think's gonna win it going through the draw and I'm gonna go with mom feast I know he's had a pretty bad Season on the court of course off court. He's got married. So he's had a great off season or off court I'm gonna back him for this one I feel like he's got a good little draw and a playing in front of his crowd playing in front of his home crowd as well I think it's gonna help him a lot So I'm gonna go with my face to win this one But again, it's one of those tournaments where anybody could win it So I don't pick him with much confidence But I'm gonna go with my face and see if he can win on the indoor hardcourt again Let me know down the comments below. Who do you think's gonna win this one? So we're starting the European indoor hardcourt season and an ATP 250 event this week in France
