Qualifier Cruz Hewitt faces top seed and defending champion Alex de Minaur in round two of the Mubadala Citi DC Open. De Minaur is ranked over 600 places higher than his opponent and our prediction is there will be less than 19.5 games in this match.

In the quarter-finals, the winner will take on either  seventh seed Jakub Mensik or unseeded Brandon Nakashima.

25 years ago, Lleyton Hewitt won the US Open. A quarter-of-a-century later, his 17-year-old son Cruz is in round two of this outdoor hard court tournament. The world number 612 had to win two qualifying matches to reach his first ATP Tour main draw.

Both of his qualifiers saw his opponent retire injured.

In round one, he beat Marcos Giron in straight sets.

This year has seen him mainly competing at lower levels with one final reached on grass.

In 2018, Alex de Minaur was the losing finalist in Washington. Seven years later, he lifted the trophy. De Minaur was sixth in the last rankings, one place below his career-high. He has won 28 of his 42 matches this year and is 8-5 on this surface.

Only one ATP Tour outdoor hard court quarter-final has been reached this year, that being in the Australian Open.

Round one saw him defeat Stefanos Tsitsipas in three sets.
