A spot in the next round is at stake on Wednesday, when Francesco Passaro goes up against Jesper De Jong in the US Open first round. Jesper De Jong has dropped 4 straight and sits at 3-7 over the last ten. Francesco Passaro comes in at 4 wins from the last ten.

On paper it's close: comparable ratings, comparable serve numbers, small margins everywhere. A tiebreak or two would surprise nobody, with Jong fractionally more likely to land the big points.
