Facundo hit three aces, converted six break points and lost one game on his serve in the match against the Frenchman. For the Argentine, this was only the third victory on open hard courts this season, with six losses.
Professional qualities
Diaz Acosta prefers to play on clay courts. Facundo is a defensive type of tennis player. His shots and serve lack the necessary power, which is why the Argentine is not very dangerous on hard courts.
Current indicators in the tour
Diaz Acosta was once ranked in the world's top 50, but is currently ranked 64th. This season, Facundo has shown his best game on his specialty clay, winning the tournament in Buenos Aires in February. It was the Argentine's first ATP title.

Diaz Acosta has lost his last four matches against players ranked in the top 50 in the world.
Current form
Draper advanced to the second round of the US Open on the back of Zhizhen Zhang, who retired at 3-6, 0-6, 0-4. In one hour and 10 minutes of play, Jack served five aces, converted seven break points and did not lose a single game on his serve. The Briton has 13 wins on open hard courts this season and eight losses.

Draper is 25th in the world rankings. This is his highest position in his career. During this season, Jack has shown his skills on all surfaces. He played in the final on hard in Adelaide, reached the quarterfinals on clay in Munich and won the title on grass in Stuttgart. For the Briton, this was the first ATP title in his career.
