THE PREDICTION

World number 26 Frances Tiafoe won the first set against Marcos Giron in a 7-0 tiebreak and that set the tone for the rest of his straight-sets victory. The 24-year-old reached the round of 16 here last season, getting close to his quarter-final breakthrough at the Australian Open in 2019, and he emulated that last month at Wimbledon as he continues to improve across the tour. World number 109 Jason Kubler should be ranked well inside the top 100 on tour after also reaching the round of 16 at SW19 this summer but the Aussie will be pleased just to be playing consistently on tour after years of career-threatening knee surgeries. Tiafoe is a popular home backer in New York and a promotion to the Grandstand court should bring with it more crowds and therefore better tennis from the American. Kubler has stunned a lot of players in recent months but Tiafoe should be dialled-in enough here to win through outright.
