THE PREDICTION

World number 32 Grigor Dimitrov has been in torrid form over much of this season but he Is always capable of an upset like Thursday’s straight-sets victory over Andrey Rublev. The 31-year-old former world number three has not won an ATP title since the ATP Finals in 2017, where his career totally failed to evolve into a Grand Slam titlist at the top of his game. Now the Bulgarian is one of the most unpredictable players on tour – as likely to blast through Marcos Giron here as falter toa defeat less than 24 hours after beating in-form Rublev. World number 58 Giron has enjoyed this stage of the tennis calendars over the last few seasons and a straight-sets victory over Cam Norrie was a statement on Thursday. The American shares a 1-1 head-to-head record with Dimitrov with a win apiece at Roland-Garros, Giron winning in four last season and Dimitrov levelling things in three this summer. Given that Dimitrov has taken at least a set in both of their meetings that option looks the only sensible move here, even though the Bulgarian should be blasting through at his best level.
