Jakub Mensik vs Taylor Fritz Prediction
Jakub Mensik is enjoying his time in Miami and the 19-year-old has already achieved a career-best performance in an ATP 1000 Masters event in reaching the semi-finals.
The Czech talent has already accounted for Roberto Bautista Agut, Jack Draper, Roman Safiullin along with a walkover win over compatriot Tomas Machac, before he produced another strong performance in beating 17th-seed Arthur Fils 7-6 6-1 in the quarters.
He now takes on third-seed Taylor Fritz who has met once before albeit two years ago and the American duly handed him a comprehensive loss. This is a completely different version of Mensik however and he has come on leaps and bounds in those two years.
Fritz came through a mammoth battle with Matteo Berrettini on Thursday to win 7-5 6-7 7-5 and seal his place in the semis. His first and second serve is firing on all cylinders this week and his return game was just that bit better than Berrettini’s to take advantage of the break points he generated.
Fritz is clearly focused this week and on his game. There is a steely determination about him and he will fancy his chances of going all the way based on how the draw is shaping up. He should have too much firepower for Mensik and we favour him to progress but we would not rule out this going all three sets.
