Jordan Thompson played his first match against Reily Opelka and won in straight sets (4-6,3-6). Afterwards he played against Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard in the round of 16 by a 5-7,4-6 score.

So it has to be Korda who comes with superior ranking and better recent form into the court – as a marginal favorite, at least. With his big serve, aggressive baseline playing style, he has the ability to see off Thompson by dominating. While Thompson is consistent and experienced, an opponent he could become tough, he needs furtherance of rallies and turning things around from Korda's unforced errors. Korda, considering her present form and playing style, should be the winner, but Thompson does have the ability to be stubborn and thus make this a very tight contest.
