Nardi’s surface strength index is modest (4.79) and his mean serve index (≈73.9) is solid; his mean return index sits at ≈59.7. Flavio Cobolli (rank 22) has lower form index (12.26) on the metric provided but stands out with much higher serve and return profiles: mean serve ≈96.5 and mean return ≈92.2, and a slightly higher surface strength index (≈10.15). The difference in mean serve index (~22.6 points) and mean return index (~32.5 points) between the two players is notable and likely meaningful on hard courts. Recent match lines show Nardi has one recent win here in Montpellier (straight sets against Nikoloz Basilashvili) but two earlier losses in longer matches (Australian Open and Adelaide). Cobolli’s listed recent results are all losses in three separate events; he shows match minutes on hard courts but no cumulative fatigue recorded for this tournament. Those sequences suggest Nardi has a recent win on site while Cobolli brings higher baseline performance indicators despite recent scorelines.
