Tsonga has been dreadful since his lucky run at the Aussie Open. Montanes has been excellent on clay.
Tsonga even blew 3 straight match pts and lost recently.

If any player that one would consider to be good in tennis, ie top 30 or so, is playing a tournament the week before the French Open, I would stay away from the match completely. I've seen so many good players grab the appearance fee cheque and then bow out early in the tournament because they don't want to risk injury before the French Open. With that being said, I wouldn't ride Tsonga much in this tournament. He will probably lose in one of the next two rounds. Also, I noticed Daveydenko is playing in a tournament right now as well so I would be surprised if he plays that tournament till the end. No use in risking all of the prize money that you can win at the french open for playing some mickey mouse tournament

I guess there was a reason Tsonga was #1... another loss for me -- what a terrible losing streak I'm on.

Save your money till the french open and don't bet these small tournaments.
Will be some good money to be made
