Our pick: Sinner J. – Fritz T.: Sinner J./+32,5 gems

08.09.2024 20:00

The last day of play at the US Open is here and the men’s final, which is already a traditional end to this Grand Slam, will feature world No. 1 Jannik Sinner and world No. 12 Taylor Fritz. Their clash promises to be a dramatic and evenly matched showdown, just as it was in their last meeting in Indian Wells, where Sinner won in three sets.

Italian Sinner is in great form at the US Open. He lost one set each to Mackenzie McDonald and Daniil Medvedev on his way to the final, but otherwise won all his matches 3-0. In the semi-final against Jack Draper he won 7:5, 7:6, 6:2, when his opponent completely lost his strength at the end of the match. But the Italian was not in 100% physical condition either, he had difficulties with his left hand, which he had to ice for a long time after the match. Nevertheless, he was clearly better in this match.

American Fritz had a very emphatic start to the tournament and won the first three matches very smoothly 3:0 in sets. But then the lot didn’t exactly treat him kindly and he had tough matches against Casper Ruud and Alexander Zverev in the eighth and quarter-finals, whom he beat 3-1 on match points. The semi-final derby with Frances Tiafoe was the icing on the cake, as he lost 1-2 in sets, but in the end he triumphed in a five-set battle and advanced to his first Grand Slam final.

What to bet on:

Jannik Sinner is the favourite for the match, he also has a lot more experience in such big matches, which can definitely help him. However, Fritz has shown tremendous fight during the tournament and he won’t sell his skin cheap. Sinner may win, but he will play a minimum of 33 games.

Confidence:

7/10
