Head-to-Head: Tiafoe Leads 4-3

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | French Open | Clay | R3 | Frances Tiafoe | 7–6(6), 6–3, 6–4 |
| 2024 | Washington | Hard | SF | Sebastian Korda | 6–4, 6–4 |
| 2023 | Queen’s Club | Grass | R16 | Sebastian Korda | 7–6(2), 6–3 |

Korda Still Finding His Level
Sebastian Korda’s progress over the past couple of years has been repeatedly slowed by fitness issues, leading to a dip in rankings and consistency. Those concerns still seem to be lingering, with his current level falling short of his usual standards.
He opened the season with a quarterfinal run in Brisbane but then dropped three straight matches before stepping down to Challenger level in San Diego. Even there, he was pushed hard by lower-ranked opponents on his way to the final.
Despite that, Korda remains comfortable on American hard courts and owns a solid track record in these conditions. That familiarity should still give him belief that a return to form is within reach over the coming weeks.

Tiafoe Aims to Turn Promise into Progress
Frances Tiafoe endured a frustrating 2025 season and is still searching for a big result this year despite showing decent level at times.
Tough early draws have not helped, with several matches coming against top opponents in the early rounds.
He does, however, bring a respectable record in Dallas, having reached at least the quarterfinals in two of his previous three appearances. That familiarity with the conditions should give him confidence heading into this matchup.
While Tiafoe’s all-court game translates well across surfaces, indoor results have been underwhelming in recent seasons. He has not won consecutive matches indoors since Vienna 2023.

Verdict
Frances Tiafoe is more than capable of beating Sebastian Korda on any surface, and current conditions only narrow the gap further. With Korda looking physically below his best, this matchup feels far more even than the odds suggest.
Given the plus price available, Tiafoe stands out as the value side. It shapes up as a strong opportunity to back him to take advantage and get the win.
