THE PREDICTION
23-year-old Frances Tiafoe burst onto the scene at the Australian Open back in 2019 when he reached the quarter-finals before losing to Rafael Nadal. He takes a three-match losing streak into this year’s tournament but it should not take long for him to rediscover some blistering form he showed late last year, with a run to the Vienna Open final and round of 16 at US Open particularly impressive. Tiafoe beat Stefanos Tsitsipas at Wimbledon last year and Andrey Rublev at the US Open but it is matches like these that you worry for him. World number 198 Marco Trungelliti will know to stay in the match as long as possible with Tiafoe’s best level usually saved for the biggest occasions and it would not be a surprise to see the qualifier snatch at least a set. Taking the American to win outright here is not even cautious given his record out of the spotlight.
