Tommy Paul
After winning his two matches at the US Open, Tommy Paul is Already having the best run of his career at his home Grand Slam. Previously the 25-year-old lost in the first round of all four of his appearances dating back to 2015.
However, playing two five-setters back-to-back being on the court for almost six and a half hours might have its toll on Tommy Paul. Nevertheless, the American is playing the best tennis of his career, and to keep up with Casper Ruud, he needs to maintain his form as consistency is key to moving forward in these tournaments.
