Thiago Agustin Tirante vs Jakub Mensik prediction
Thiago Austin Tirante has turned into quite the clutch player so far in Cincinnati, winning consecutive tie-breakers in his third-round victory over Martin Landaluce after stunning Novak Djokovic in three sets the round before. The question is how much does he have left in the tank as Jakub Mensik awaits in the round of 16.
After a nail-biting second-round win against Mattia Bellucci, Mensik stepped up a gear in round three, comfortably beating Rinky Hijikata in straight sets. He looks to be getting better the more time spent on the court and it may be the case that whilst Tirante has peaked, Mensik still has a higher level in him. Therefore, consider backing Mensik to win a close one.
