There's an all-American clash in the quarter-finals of the Mubadala Citi DC Open in Washington Third seed  Taylor Fritz takes on unseeded Alex Michelsen. His opponent has won a set in all but two of his last 15 outdoor hard court matches and our prediction is he will win one here..

Seeded opponents in the semi-finals are top seed Alex de Minaur and seventh-seeded Jakub Mensik.

Taylor Fritz was ranked tenth in the latest rankings, 30 places above his opponent. While he has reached three ATP Tour finals this year, this is only his second quarter-final on this surface and he's yet to progress further.

This week has seen him beat Zizou Bergs and Kamil Majchrzak, both by a 6-3 6-4 scoreline.

They have met twice in the past and both matches were won by Michelsen. The most recent being on an outdoor hard court at Indian Wells this year.  Michelsen has won 18 of his 24 matches played on this surface in 2026.

Last week saw him win the Bloomfield Hills Challenger Tour event.

Wins this week have come against Mackenzie McDonald and Adrian Mannarino without a set being dropped.  Michelsen has won a set in 17 of his last 18 matches on all surfaces and has a good chance of winning at least one against Fritz.
