Frances is confidently going through the tournament, losing only one set in 4 matches in the third round to Mannarino. Tiafoe beat Tien, Ofner, and Hijikata. The match against Hijikata lasted just over two hours, with Tiafoe getting a three-set victory 6-4, 6-1, 6-4. Frances had 15 aces and 3 double faults, winning 83% on his first and 55% on his second serve. Return statistics: 43%/56%, winners/unforced errors 27/22.

Ben Shelton achieved the quarter-finals of the Majors, beating Kachin, Tim, Karatsev, and Paul one after the other. However, the match against Tim was unfinished, and Ben lost a set. The match against Tommy Paul lasted two hours and 51 minutes. Ben served 16 times with 9 double faults, while Paul had a surprisingly high number of errors on his serve. Shelton won 75% of his points on his first serve and 48% on his second. Return statistics: 23%/57%, winners/unforced errors 36/46.

Note that Shelton had more errors than won points in the match against Paul in the round of 16. Tommy Paul played even worse than his opponent. Tiafoe had a positive statistic in the round of 16, not only in the match against Hijikata but also in the tournament. Tiafoe also has the advantage of experience, which is crucial in the late stages of Majors. Frances is a more stable tennis player, so our choice is on the side of the favorite. Moreover, we don't think that Shelton will be able to win more than one set against Tiafoe.
