THE PREDICTION

25-year-old Tim van Rijthoven’s remarkable summer continues after the Dutchman came back from two sets down, via a third-set 11-9 tiebreak, to beat Zhizhen Zhang on Monday. The world number 117 made his tour debut as an unknown wildcard at ‘s-Hertogenbosch back in June and stunned the tennis world by winning the title, beating the likes of Taylor Fritz, Felix Auger-Aliassime and Daniil Medvedev and he took that form all the way to a four-set defeat to Novak Djokovic in the round of 16 at Wimbledon. Still with only two tour defeats to his name, Van Rijthoven proved he was not just a one-hit wonder on grass this year with a win on his debut at the US Open and world number seven can often be susceptible to an early shock. The 23-year-old was stunned by wildcards Ben Shelton at the Cincinnati Open last week and Ryan Peniston at Queen’s back in June but he has managed to win a ninth ATP title amongst some odd campaigns at the Gstaad Open. Ruud also reached the semi-finals of the Canada Masters earlier this month to set out his stall as one of the unpredictable players on tour and this match looks a coupon-buster a few ways around.

Leave it out of an accumulator but consider a small one-off on Van Rijthoven to shock the Norwegian, considering little else the Dutchman has achieved this summer makes sense.
