Prediction
On Monday, the fourth round of the 2022 US Open will feature home favourite Frances Tiafoe versus 22-time Grand Slam victor Rafael Nadal.
In the third round, Nadal defeated Gasquet by playing his best match of the competition. While his groundstrokes have been very effective, his serve has been a little erratic. He has adjusted his serve to prevent worsening his stomach ailment. Tiafoe will aim to take advantage of the fact that it gives his rivals a good opportunity to outmanoeuvre him.
Even though the American hasn’t lost a set yet, they have all been fiercely fought. In the first set against Schwartzman, Tiafoe appeared to be in trouble but battled back to win. He must fight with the same ferocity against the Spaniard if he wants to stand a chance of succeeding.
Both the players had more victories than mistakes at the conclusion of their third-round contests. With Nadal committing eight double faults to Tiafoe’s three, the serve was a key differentiator between them. The former World No. 1 has demonstrated, however, that despite any flaws in his game, he will persevere until the very finish.
Although Tiafoe will be the most difficult opponent Nadal has yet to play, the Spaniard ought to be able to prevail.
