Playing Styles and Prediction
Ruusuvuori has shown his talent and potential throughout the year with some clean ball-striking and effective decision making. However the results have yet to show his consistency and now he will look to continue his development by notching up a big win at the US Open.
Draper will look to continue to use his consistent power and smart tactical play to force the errors from Ruusuvuori. The serve is going to be the key shot from both players and will determine who comes out on top here. Draper’s confidence should get him over the line but it won’t be easy against a resilient baseliner like Ruusuvuori.
Prediction: Draper in four sets.
