Delray Beach Open: Frances Tiafoe vs. Donald Young 1/8/2021 Tennis Prediction

It is an All-American matchup at the 2021 Delray Beach Open as Frances Tiafoe meets Donald Young in the first round on Friday, January 8th 2021. Will it be the once-American tennis prodigy in Young to cause an upset, or will Tiafoe put his place even higher up in American tennis?

Donald Young used to be the complete star of American tennis, with people expecting him to reach the highest levels in the tennis world, however, more than 10 years after his professional tennis debut, Young is not a name anyone speaks of much. Young had suffered injuries and confidence issues throughout his career which have prevented him from reaching the higher echelons of the tennis world, but has shown some good performances in the qualifying rounds here in Delray Beach. Will these performances be enough to give him the confidence against one of the most flamboyant and energetic players on the tour in Frances Tiafoe?

Frances Tiafoe was very solid a few years ago, but injury issues and a lack of confidence resulted in him falling slightly down the rankings in the last couple of years. Tiafoe has a lot of potential, and is still extremely young, and can become one of the best players in the world in a few years if he continously adds new aspects to his game and improves his amazing flamboyant playing style. Tiafoe has so much energy on the court and it is a pleasure to watch him play, will he be able to contend for the title here?
