Unlike the other French seeds, Corentin Moutet and Grégoire Barrère, eliminated from their entry into the tournament, Ugo Humbert made a very successful debut this Wednesday night on the Central Vendéspace in Mouilleron-le-Captif. Messin, current 63rd world player and No. 1 seed of the Challenger disputed in the Vendée, has made a mouthful of the Dutch Robin Haase, yet a customer of the major circuit (6-2, 6-1). "It's a very good start match for me, against a player who was still top 100 early in the season. I had lost to him on grass. I played better tactically, this time, trying to block it on his back, and then going to the net, at the slightest opportunity. The 21-year-old, who will face Jiri Vesely of the Czech Republic in the third round, does not focus on his No. 1-seeded status : "I have already been on other Challengers. It's just a number. "
