Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?

Match Preview: Damir Dzumhur (BIH) vs Frances Tiafoe (USA)
This will be the first meeting between Damir Dzumhur and Frances Tiafoe. Dzumhur is currently ranked 84th in the world, with a career-high ranking of 23. He had a successful start to the 2025 season, reaching the quarterfinals in Santiago. However, he hasn’t been able to replicate that success in Indian Wells, with a 2-4 record in the tournament, reaching the second round in 2017 and 2025.

Dzumhur made a breakthrough in 2015 when he entered the Top 100 rankings, and he climbed further to reach the Top 50 in 2017. He achieved his career-high ranking of 23 after winning his third ATP Tour title at Antalya in 2018. In 2017, he became the first player to win both the St. Petersburg and Moscow championships in a single season. Dzumhur had an impressive year in 2017, earning a personal-best 36 victories and defeating top-ranked players such as Stan Wawrinka and Alexander Zverev.

Dzumhur has reached the third round of a Grand Slam on five occasions, including a close match against Alexander Zverev in the 2018 Roland Garros, where he held a match point but eventually lost. He has also reached the Round of 16 in ATP Masters 1000 events three times, with a notable victory over Rafael Nadal in the second round of the 2016 Miami tournament. In 2024, he had a perfect record of 6-0 in ATP Challenger Tour finals, tying with five other players for the second-most Challenger titles in a single season.

Dzumhur defeated Bautista Agut in the first round of this tournament, marking his first ATP Masters 1000 main draw win since 2021 Miami. He is determined to reach the third round at this level for the first time since 2018 Paris. However, his record against top 20 players is not favorable, with a 7-30 record. He is seeking his first win against a top-ranked player since his victory over Stefanos Tsitsipas in 2019 Rotterdam.

Frances Tiafoe, the current world number 17 with a career-high ranking of 10, is 27 years old. In June 2023, he reached his career-high ranking after winning his third title in Stuttgart. He demonstrated his versatility by winning titles on all three surfaces. Tiafoe and Taylor Fritz were the first American men’s duo to be in the top 10 since Fish and Isner in May 2012.

Tiafoe had significant success in Grand Slam tournaments, reaching the semifinals of the US Open in both 2022 and 2024. He defeated Rafael Nadal in the 2022 US Open en route to becoming the event’s first American men’s semifinalist since Andy Roddick in 2006. Tiafoe also had success in team events, helping Team World win the 2022 Laver Cup, where he defeated Federer and Nadal. In 2024, he reached his first ATP Masters 1000 final in Cincinnati after saving match points against Holger Rune.

Tiafoe won his first ATP Tour title as a 20-year-old in Delray Beach in 2018 and followed it up with a second title in Houston in 2023. His parents emigrated from Sierra Leone, and his father worked as the Head of Maintenance at the Junior Tennis Champions Center in Maryland, where Tiafoe and his twin brother Franklin trained as children.

Tiafoe has had success on American soil, with a 15-5 record since last July. He reached his first ATP Masters 1000 final in Cincinnati and his second US Open semifinal during this period. He aims to record 10 wins at a single ATP Masters 1000 event for the third time in his career and maintain his perfect record in opening rounds this season, which currently stands at 4-0.

The match between Damir Dzumhur and Frances Tiafoe will take place on Stadium 3.
