Taylor Fritz vs Rafael Jodar prediction

The number one seed at the Delray Beach Open, Taylor Fritz, performed well in Texas last week as he defeated Marcos Giron, Brandon Nakashima, Sebastian Korda and Marin Cilic before losing to Ben Shelton in the final. That made his record 10-10 in terms of ATP final results.

19-year-old Madrid-born Rafael Jodar has raced to 118 in the world after three ATP Challenger Tout titles, as well as a second round exit from last month’s Australian Open. He was impressive in the first round at Delray Beach, too, as he defeated Ethan Quinn 6-2, 6-3 the other day.

Rafael Jodar is a coming force in the ATP and may cause some issues for Taylor Fritz but the American has be viewed still as the firm favourite to progress to the quarter-finals.
