Singapore Winner Popyrin Comes Through Qualifying

Popyrin won hs first senior career title in February, beating Alexander Bublik to lift the trophy in Singapore.

The 22-year old was hoping that would be a springboard to greater success, but it has not panned out that way so far this year, and only twice has he reached the third round of a tournament in the intervening months – in Miami and Madrid.

He lost in the first round of both the French Open and Wimbledon, but his ranking means he will enter the main draw in New York for the first time next week.

The Australian failed to qualify for either Toronto or Cincinnati, but has managed it in Winston-Salem, albeit against a lower quality field, beating first Sasi Kumar Mukund of India, the world 325, and then the Japanese player, Yusuka Watanuki, ranked 255th currently.

Johnson v Popyrin Prediction and Tip

Although the higher ranked player, Popyrin has not been in good form recently and had to qualify for this tournament. Johnson beat him a  few weeks ago in Atlanta, and is tipped to do so again.

Tip: Johnson to win: 7/9 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
