THE PREDICTION
This could be a thrilling first meeting between two of the tour’s biggest showmen in world number 21 Frances Tiafoe and number 51 Lorenzo Sonego. 27-year-old Sonego is better than his current ranking suggests and he saved his poor overall season from total dismay recently with a surprise victory at the Moselle Open to claim the third ATP title of his career. Meanwhile, 24-year-old Tiafoe broke the top 20 on tour for a first time with a career-best run to the semi-finals of the US Open, taking eventual champion Carlos Alcaraz as close as anyone could in a five-set epic. The American then beat Stefanos Tsitsipas, and a doubles pairing of the departing Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, at the Laver Cup to help Team US to a first trophy before finishing runner-up to teammate Taylor Fritz at the Japan Open.
Two tough defeats since suggest he is winding down ahead of this last tournament of his season but Tiafoe is arguably one of the outsiders to make a very deep run this week. The notorious Parisian crowds should favour Tiafoe against non-French opponents and he can be backed to utilise that extra energy to come through this opener.
