Olympic bronze medallist Taylor Fritz begins his Cincinnati Open campaign with a match-up against the world number 52 Brandon Nakashima. Fritz is enjoying a solid season and has made it to the quarter finals of two Grand Slam events. He is currently ranked at 13 in the world, but a strong performance this week could see him reach the top ten before the US Open at the end of the month. Nakashima comes into the event fresh from a run to the third round of the Canadian Open. However, he has never beaten Fritz and has just one victory over a top ten player this year.

Our Taylor Fritz vs Brandon Nakashima Prediction

Fritz should be feeling on top of the world after his superb showing in the men's doubles at the Olympics. He has lost just one of his last 22 first round games in Masters events and we expect him to make short work of a slightly limited opponent. Nakashima is a solid player, but his record against top 16 players leaves something to be desired. Naturally, Fritz is a short priced favourite, but you can add a bit more value to your bet by predicting him to win in straight sets. 

Our prediction for Taylor Fritz vs Brandon Nakashima is: Fritz to win 2-0, +100 at BetMGM.

Prediction:

 

Fritz to win 2-0
