Martin Damm vs Darwin Blanch prediction
Martin Damm will be making his main draw Grand Slam debut in New York after getting through the qualifying rounds. His ranking now exceeds the top 400 in the world, but he did reach a high of 175 in early 2024. He did not drop a set in all three stages, and the 21-year-old left-hander will be full of confidence ahead of his match with Darwin Blanch.
Blanch has just notched up his first win on the ATP Tour, having achieved the feat last week in Winston-Salem against Borna Coric in the first-round. He also challenged top 40 player Alexandre Muller in the next round, losing in three sets. The 17-year-old will look to dictate most of the rallies with his aggressive play from the baseline.
There is no clear favourite here, with both players eager to perform on their slam debut at their home event. This match could see the momentum swing both ways and there's a decent chance it's decided in five sets.
Martin Damm vs Darwin Blanch tip: Over 4.5 sets
