THE PREDICTION

World number 57 Marton Fucsovics earned revenge over Sebastian Korda on Monday with a remarkable five-set victory over the 31st seed less than a week after losing in straight sets to him in Winston-Salem. The ‘Iron Man of tennis’ reached the third round at Wimbledon last month with some strong results, taking the first set from Daniil Medvedev before defeat, and wins over the likes of Alex de Minaur, Taylor Fritz and Densi Shapovalov are huge improvements on his woeful 2022. 22-year-old Rinky Hijikata could break the top 100 on tour for the first time after beating Pavel Kotov in four sets on Monday. The Aussie claimed his first Grand Slam win in five sets over Yannick Hanfmann in Melbourne back in January before being soundly beaten by Stefanos Tsitsipas in the second but he stands a better chance here, particularly with 31-year-old Fucsovics likely feeling his efforts. A first meeting between the two is Fucsovics’ to lose but backing the Hungarian to earn at least two sets looks the suitably cautious pick.
