THE PREDICTION
World number 11 Frances Tiafoe partnered Tommy Paul in the double slate on Friday night to help Team World to a clean sweep over Team Europe but he has been suspect in singles recently. The 25-year-old enjoyed another deep run at the US Open but a four set defeat to younger compatriot Ben Shelton in the quarter-finals will certainly have hurt and his two defeats in a poor Davis Cup campaign for the USA last week looked like hangovers from that disappointment. World number 16 Hubert Hurkacz reached the semi-finals of the Cincinnati Open last month, taking eventual runner-up Carlos Alcaraz to three sets for the second week in a row, but he failed to build on that momentum at the US Open when apparent illness saw him crash out of the second round. The 26-year-old’s level is up in the air, then, after looking so promising in Cincinnati but he leads Tiafoe 3-2 in a tight head-to-head record that suggests sets will go both ways in a potential thriller.
The conditions suit both parties but home advantage will hand an extra boost to Tiafoe, who was such a huge part of Team World’s campaign in London last summer. Three of their five matches have seen sets go both ways so consider taking that option here in lieu of picking a tough result.
