THE PREDICTION
World number 16 Diego Schwartzman rode his luck in the first round of the US Open, going down two sets to Jack Sock before taking seven games in a row before the American was forced to retire through injury. The 30-year-old has reached the quarter-finals at the US Open twice in recent years, first losing to Pablo Carreno Busta in 2017 and to eventual champion Rafael Nadal in 2019. The Argentine will face another big-server in world number 84 Alexei Popyrin after the Aussie overcame Chun-Hsin Tseng in three tight sets. 23-year-old Popyrin claimed only his fifth tour-level win this season on Tuesday to bolster some lost confidence but Schwartzman has been gearing up to deconstruct this kind of tennis all of his career. A first meeting between two contrasting styles should make for an exciting match here but Schwartzman can be backed to come through outright, probably in three.
