A few days away from the Olympics, Humbert worries
Not exactly the result we'd hoped for from France's number 1.
After a convincing tournament at Wimbledon, where he went so far as to upset Alcaraz in the Round of 16, Humbert failed to make the transition from grass to clay.
Lining up in Gstaad, he lost to the modest Gustavo Heide, 178th in the world and a qualifier (7-6, 2-6, 6-3).
With just over a week to go before the start of the Paris Olympics, this result is not a particularly exciting one for the French clan.
As a reminder, Monfils, Fils and Moutet will accompany Humbert at the Olympic event.
