THE PREDICTION

World number 12 Casper Ruud conceded just one game to in-form Marcos Giron on Wednesday to suggest his new approach to hardcourts could bear fruit. The 25-year-old is one of the best players on clay on tour but he should be better than he is on hardcourts, in his own words, with a hammer forehand to centre a powerful game around. It remains to be seen what Ruud can do over the coming weeks in Mexico but this should be a tough first encounter with Nuno Borges, who is yet to drop a set this week to maintain his sparking 2024 form. The 27-year-old stunned Alejandro Davidovich Fokina and Grigor Dimitrov en-route to the round of 16 at the Australian Open last month, where he took a set before defeat to eventual runner-up Daniil Medvedev, and it took eventual champion Taylor Fritz to oust him from Delray Beach last week. Back Ruud to win outright, with three sets about as likely as two.

TIP: CASPER RUUD TO WIN
