Fritz came to Acapulco as the winner of the tournament in Delray Beach. In the final, he beat Kecmanovic in three sets. In Mexico, Taylor knocked out John Isner. The match lasted an hour and 49 minutes, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 in Fritz's favor. Fritz made four aces and two doubles faults, winning 85% of his first serve and 39% of his second. On reception, his stats were 20%/48%, winners/unforced errors 23/16. Note that Taylor is the world No. 5 and No. 3 in the current tournament.

Shapovalov reached the third round at the Australian Open. After that, the Canadian failed two tournaments in the United States. Denis lost in two sets in Dallas to Wu Yibin and in Delray Beach to Mmoh. In Acapulco, he played one match against Kecmanovic. The meeting consisted of three sets, and the first one was taken by the Serb 7:6. In the second game, and the Canadian didn't let Miomir win even a game. In the third game, again, it was a clash, and the Canadian won 7:5. Shapovalov's statistics: 8/7 aces/doubles, 81%/44% of points won on serve, 39%/52% of points on reception, 46/26 winnings/unforced errors.

Shapovalov is a household name, but there's no way this guy will make it into the top 10, let alone the top one. Fritz improved last season and set among the top 10 ATP players for some time already. That is, his progress is evident. We are sure Denis is an excellent motivator for Taylor, given how many times he lost to Shapovalov. There is no need to set the American up for the Canadian. As for the tonus, Fritz has the advantage. After Melbourne, Shapovalov is in trouble, and in Acapulco, he beats Kecmanovic with some difficulty. Fritz has an excellent opportunity to defeat Denis for the third time and slightly correct the H2H statistics.
