A spot in the next round is at stake on Sunday, when Denis Shapovalov goes up against Miomir Kecmanovic in the US Open first round. Denis Shapovalov comes in at 6 wins from the last ten. Miomir Kecmanovic has won 4 of the last 10.

The serve is where this match separates: Shapovalov has been winning 74.7% of first-serve points to Kecmanovic's 70.9%, and on hard that gap compounds fast. A tiebreak or two would surprise nobody, with Shapovalov fractionally more likely to land the big points.
