THE PREDICTION
World number 21 Denis Shapovalov overcame a tough opener against in-form Marc-Andrea Huesler in a five-set marathon on Tuesday. The 23-year-old is no stranger to lengthy battles at Grand Slams, including this season when he took eventual champion Rafael Nadal to a close five-set epic in the quarter-finals of the Australian Open. Shapovalov’s inconsistency makes him one of the most unpredictable players on tour but a win at this level usually sees him more dialled-in on his return to the court and that should see him through against Roberto Carballes Baena, who overcame Jaume Munar in four sets on Tuesday. Shapovalov beat the world number 80 in straight sets at this exact stage of last season’s US Open but the Canadian is in significantly worse shape than he was a year ago, making an outright pick the sensible call. Their first encounter went to the Spaniard in five sets at Roland-Garros in 2020.
