THE PREDICTION

World number 14 Tommy Paul changed the course of his career earlier this year with a huge run to the semi-finals of the Australian Open before defeat in three to eventual champion Novak Djokovic. The 26-year-old recently came back into some scintillating form in Toronto to beat Carlos Alcaraz at the Canada Masters for a second year running and he took the Spaniard to three sets once again in the round of 16 in Cincinnati a week later. Paul may never have a better chance for a deep run on home soil than this fortnight and he has been awarded a kind opener against world number 233 Stefanos Travaglia, who fought valiantly to come through three three-setters in qualifying against some tough foes. This is a considerable step-up in quality, though, particularly as Paul will enjoy the limelight as a home player with real potential at the US Open. Paul leads Travaglia 2-0 in their head-to-head and it is hard to see anything other than a straight-sets result here.
