Command Analysis
Taylor Fritz
USACurrent form
Fritz beat Artur Rinderknech 6-4, 6-2 in the first round of the competition in Dallas. In a duel against the Frenchman, Taylor made 11 aces, made three break points and did not lose a single game on his serve. It was the seventh victory for the American this season, with two losses.
Professional qualities
Fritz is one of the most balanced players on the tour. His key trump cards are his powerful serve, which has become the basis of his success in recent years, and his forehand, which has improved significantly and has now reached the top level. The American has always been able to attack, but now his forehand has become even more dangerous. The only significant drawback is psychology: there are times when Taylor starts to get mad at himself, loses concentration, and makes a lot of mistakes.
Current indicators in the tour
Fritz is the fourth racket of the world. This is his highest position in the world ranking. Taylor has won 14 trophies in his career, eight of which are in the ATP category. Last season, the American won the Delray Beach Outdoor hard court tournament and won the Eastbourne trophy on grass.
Interesting facts for betting
Fritz has eight wins in the last ten matches.
Denis Shapovalov
CanadaCurrent form
Shapovalov reached the second round of the competition in Dallas, defeating Miomir Kechmanovich (6-3, 6-7, 6-3). Denis made 20 aces in the match against the Serb, made three break points and lost one game on his serve. The Canadian has three wins and three losses this season.
Professional qualities
Shapovalov is a natural attacking player. The Canadian is not used to passive play and always tries to shoot forehand at the first opportunity. This style allows him to impose a fight even on top-20 tennis players, but he often loses to opponents who are inferior to him in class. Instability remains Denis' main weakness.
Current indicators in the tour
Shapovalova is the 54th racket of the world at the moment. Once upon a time, the Canadian tennis player rounded out the top 10 of the world ranking. Last season, Denis scored a victory at the indore tournament in Belgrade. It was the second ATP title of his career for him.
Interesting facts for betting
Shapovalov has lost 18 of his last 22 matches to opponents from the top 10 of the world ranking.
