Amicable Belgian David Goffin is officially a clay-court centurion, having vied for victory in his 100th clay court contest against Dutchman Robin Haase at the Bullring. The No.8 seed enjoyed his best Grand Slam showing in Paris as a quarter-finalist in 2016. Boosting his morale ahead of play, Goffin clinched a 7-5 6-3 win over Haase earlier this month at the Madrid Open. Would he replicate that scoreboard success at Roland-Garros?
