THE PREDICTION

World number 24 Denis Shapovalov looked in decent shape against Jaume Munar on Wednesday, beating the Spaniard in straight sets to change the narrative in Seoul. The 23-year-old has been struggling for consistency on tour but a solid start like Wednesday’s suggests he will need a tougher challenge than Radu Albot to be ousted from the Korea Open. World number 91 Albot is yet to drop a set this week after taking out Steve Johnson in two tight sets on Wednesday and he will be confident in this match-up after stunning the Canadian in straight sets this time two years ago at the Sofia Open in their only previous meeting. This time around, though, Shapovalov should have at least one eye in the tournament and the Moldovan is not quite up to his previous level. Back Shapovalov to win outright.
