In another of the all-American affairs at the ATP Washington, Ben Shelton and Frances Tiafoe are scheduled to clash in the quarter-final. This will be the fourth meeting between the two, with the winner to meet Taylor Fritz or Alejandro Davidovich Fokina. Read on for our prediction of the match.
Fourth seed Shelton has been on fire in recent weeks. In Washington, he’s won both of his matches in straight sets, beating Mackenzie McDonald and Gabriel Diallo.
This marks his second straight quarter-final at Washington and sixth of the season. After compiling a 25-15 run, he is on a record high seventh in the live rankings.
Tiafoe has made it to this stage for the fourth straight time in Washington. However, in the earlier three, he advanced just once. This will be his third quarter-final this season, after the French Open and Houston.
He meets a player who has beaten him twice before. It may also not work in his favor that Tiafoe has spent close to an hour more than Shelton on the court. The sixth seed has had an improved campaign and will be looking to break into the top 10 soon.
However, before he makes the step, he will be looking to beat a top 10 player for the first time this year. His 2-0 win against Flavio Cobolli improved his record to 20-15, and he’s 11th in the live ranking.

Frances Tiafoe will be in the headlines a lot after joining elite former players who reached four consecutive Washington Open quarter-finals. After the headlines comes the real test though – trying to reach the Washington Open semis for the second time. The man in front of him is a player in great form and a top 10.
Tiafoe is 0-1 against top 10 players in the last year and 13-37 overall. His general record in quarter-finals is not glowing either. All these, yet he trails Shelton in head-to-head numbers. Our prediction for Ben Shelton v Frances Tiafoe is that Ben Shelton wins the match.
