Sebastian Korda vs Frances Tiafoe: Preview
Korda comes into this tournament with hopes of putting on a better show as compared to his previous four tournaments on the hard courts. The American youngster has been billed as a future Grand Slam champion by a few former players and probably he is already feeling the pressure.

Till now, Korda has a 12-7 win/loss record on the hard courts.
On the other hand, Tiafoe comes into this contest after beating French veteran Benoit Paire in three sets in the last round. While the American has shown episodes of promise this year, consistency hasn’t been achieved. He made the quarters of Winston-Salem, before losing to Felix Auger Aliassime in the fourth round of the US Open. Till now in 2021, the 23-year-old has a 18/12 win/loss record on the hard court. Tiafoe loves to play in front of his home fans, and may be that will inspire him to get the best going forward.
