Botic van de Zandschulp Looks to Continue His Resurgence
Botic van de Zandschulp ended his recent slump with a successful campaign in Montreal last week, where he reached the fourth round after defeating Daniil Medvedev and Hubert Hurkacz in the early rounds.
Before the North American swing started, he was going through a difficult stretch, winning only two matches in his last seven events and struggling for consistency in recent months.
His notable results this year include reaching the semifinal in Bucharest, the quarterfinal in Rotterdam and the third round at the Australian Open and Rome.
This is his second appearance in Cincinnati. Four years ago, he made his debut here and reached the second round.

Tallon Griekspoor Looks to Regain His Early-Season Form
Like his compatriot, Tallon Griekspoor also ended his recent slump by reaching the fourth round in Montreal, where he defeated Alexander Zverev in the second round before suffering a disappointing loss to Daniel Merida Aguilar in the Round of 16.
The 30-year-old started the season with solid results, reaching the quarterfinals in Montpellier and Rotterdam before withdrawing from the final in Dubai against Daniil Medvedev due to a hamstring injury.
Since then, his level dropped and he won only two main-draw matches in 10 tour-level appearances from Marrakech to Washington.
Griekspoor has played in Cincinnati three times before and failed to win his opening-round match on all three occasions.

Verdict
Griekspoor's recent shoulder problem makes it difficult to trust him, especially against an opponent who should be physically fresher.
Van de Zandschulp has a good opportunity to take advantage and control the match from the start. Backing Botic van de Zandschulp to win in straight sets.
