LiontipsSteve Johnson vs Ramkumar Ramanathan. Prediction and Betting Tips for ATP Washington (August 3, 2021).
Command Analysis
Johnson can't gain momentum. He had made many attempts to reach a new level on different surfaces. Steve has high hopes for a series of tournaments in America, but so far he doesn't have a lot of success. He played two matches in Atlanta and eliminated Alexei Popyrin in the first round (7-6, 6-3), but in the second match was defeated by Taylor Fritz (7-6, 4-6, 1-6). Right now, it is most important to have a good start at the Washington Open if Johnson wants to improve his results in this tour.
The Indian tennis player feels comfortable on hard courts, which we already had an opportunity to witness. At the Challenger in Cary, Ramkumar made it to the finals but lost to Mitchell Kruger (6-7, 2-6). After that, Ramanathan tested his strength in Lexington, but that did not work out. In Washington, Ramkumar easily passed the qualifying matches, defeating Christopher Eubanks (6-4, 3-6, 6-3) and Sebastian Ofner (7-5, 6-1) without any problems.
