Opelka's return to the courts was quite successful. In Newport, the American reached the semifinals, beating Mannarino, Lestienne and McDonald. However, in Atlanta, he hung up his racket in the second round, losing to Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
In Washington, Reilly had already managed to beat James Duckworth. The confrontation with the Australian was not easy. Despite losing the first set, Opelka still snatched victory.

Thompson should have been tired after the tournament in Atlanta. There he played three 3-set matches, so he didn't have much strength left. He might not have enough for the confrontation with Opelka. The American has a cannon serve, so it's unlikely he'll be able to cope with it.
Our prediction is Opelka's victory for 1.83 in BC Fonbet
