After that, ranked No. #4 in the world, Taylor Fritz dominated his match 6-4, 6-4 against Zhang Zhizhen in an encounter that lasted 79 minutes without Igor Martynov having loss one point on his serve.It was an equally strong showing for Czechia, which have Karolina Muchova, ranked No. #22 and recently returned from a 10-month injury hiatus, destroying No. #4 Jasmine Paolini 6-2, 6-2.

Tomas Machac then won without any serious labor, beating Flavio Cobolli 6-1, 6-2 in a mere 54 minutes, and Muchova’s win was now five out of five meetings with the Italian.

Match Prediction

Team USA possesses a major advantage heading into their United Cup semifinal against the Czech Republic, with world No. #3 Coco Gauff leading the squad.

Gauff, fresh from her decisive victory over China’s Zhang Shuai (7-6, 6-2), has won three straight matches this year. The 20-year-old American’s strong baseline game with improved serving may be too much for 22nd-ranked Karolina Muchova, who won in straight sets against Jasmine Paolini not too long ago.

One more big plus for the Americans is Taylor Fritz, currently ranked number four in the world whose serving show against Zhang Zhizhen and only dropping only four points on serve shows the form making him a favorite against Tomas.

The United States, defending champions from two years ago, have historical momentum on their side. Their mixed doubles team-up, especially relevant in tight contests, has shown grit throughout the tournament.  

Result: USA to win
