Tennis Predictions
The big day of the ATP Next Gen Finals 2024 final has arrived in the city of Jeddah and it will pit Brazilian Joao Fonseca against American Learner Tien. Joao Fonseca, 18, is the surprise of this tournament since he simply has not experienced a single defeat. Indeed, the Brazilian won 100% of his matches, starting by beating the number 1 seed, Arthur Fils, in the first match of the group stages. He then beat his opponent of the day, Learner Tien, with a severe score of 4-0, 4-0, 1-4, 4-2, before winning his 3rd point against Jakub Mensik, 48th in the world. The leader of his group then easily won his semi-final against Frenchman Luca Van Assche without losing any set. He should be more determined than ever to continue his incredible journey.
For his part, Learner Tien beat Jabuk Mensik in a tight 5-set match before losing to a certain Joao Fonseca. He was then able to win the qualifying point for the semi-finals by beating Arthur Fils, before creating a surprise during the semi-finals since he stopped the 41st world Alex Michelsen in a very close match of 5 rounds. He should arrive less confident than his opponent in this second duel against himFpn in the space of a few days.
