Command Analysis

Pedro Martinez

On clay, Martinez has scored four wins in nine matches this season. Last week, Pedro participated in the Monte Carlo Masters, where he beat Lorenzo Sonego in the first round, but then lost to Nuno Borges.
Professional qualities
Martinez is a typical Spanish school tennis player who prefers slow courts. He relies on defense and most often acts from the opponent, counting on his mistakes. However, this style of play proves ineffective on fast surfaces - the lack of a strong serve and aggressive forehand prevent Pedro from dictating the conditions on the hard court.
