On February 11, the quarterfinals will play at the tournament in Dallas. Let’s determine the favorite of these competitions.
The prize fund of the tournament in Dallas is $708,350. It belongs to the ATP 250 category and takes place on hard indoors.
Reilly, at the quarterfinal stage, is waiting for a tough match with Adriann Mannarino, who is approaching his best tennis this season. The American results largely depend on how consistently he manages to serve. Judging by the opening match with Cedric-Marcel Stebe (7:6,7:6), there are no problems with this. The American has 28 aces and not a single, double fault. Still, Opelka must cope with the Frenchman due to the stability of the service; Adrian sometimes has recessions in the game. In the semi-finals, the winner of the pair, Vasek Pospisil – John Isner, will be waiting for him.
If Reilly has a serve above 60%, he can potentially count on winning the current tournament.
Jenson is an up-and-coming tennis player. He is 21 years old and is in the 54th position on the ATP Tour. The American builds his game based on a powerful serve and variable forehand. In the first match at the tournament in Dallas, Brooksby managed to beat Andreas Seppi in three games (6:3,3:6,6:3).
The truth is still not all right with the stability of Jenson. In the quarterfinals, he will face Jordan Thompson, who shows a solid level. In the semi-finals, he will undoubtedly meet with Fritz. Brooksby has a heavy net, but he’s still a little raw to count on the title in Dallas.
In this tournament, it is advisable to build on the victory of Reilly Opelka. The American has a difficult grid, but it should be easier to cope with Mannarino than with Pospisil or Isner. Most likely, there will be a game with Fritz in the final. Its outcome will largely depend on the quality of Opelka’s filing. Reilly last won the title in 2020.
