THE PREDICTION
24-year-old Alejandro Davidovich Fokina comes into the US Open at a career-high ATP world ranking of 21st after his remarkable run to the semi-finals of the Canada Masters, beating Alexander Zverev and Casper Ruud before falling to eventual runner-up Alex de Minaur. The Spaniard is at his best on clay but he is a serious threat on all surfaces and capable of producing sudden bursts of brilliance on the bigger stages as well as the occasional immature mistake. Rock-steady world number 63 Marcos Giron beat Emil Ruusuvuori and Holger Rune in Toronto on his way to the round of 16 to bring some serious hardcourt form into the first round. The 30-year-old will be backed to the hilt as the home hopeful here but ADF beat him in straight sets at last season’s Monte-Carlo Masters and he is in arguably better shape at this moment. Back Davidovich Fokina to win outright, with four sets the likeliest outcome.
