Command Analysis

Casper Ruud

Current form
Ruud had a poor run in both Montreal and Cincinnati ahead of the US Open, exiting both tournaments early. Casper has an 18-7 record on outdoor hard courts this season.
Professional qualities
Ruud is certainly good on his specialty clay. However, Casper has also improved his performance on hard courts over the past two seasons. This year, for example, the Norwegian played in two finals on open hard courts - in Los Cabos and Acapulco.
Current indicators in the tour
Ruud is currently ranked eighth in the world, although he was once ranked second. Casper has two titles to his credit this season. He won both of them on clay - the Norwegian won in Barcelona and Geneva. Ruud now has 12 ATP titles.
Interesting facts for betting
Ruud has only won one of his three matches on North American hard court ahead of the US Open.

Bu Yunchaokete

Current form
Yunchaokete made it to the main draw of the US Open through the qualification. In the final of the selection, let us recall, the 22-year-old Chinese beat Aslan Karatsev. Bu has 34 wins and nine losses on open hard courts this season.
Professional qualities
Yunchaokete is short by tennis standards at 1.83 metres. This makes it difficult for the 22-year-old Chinese to dominate on the court, but he makes up for it with his baseline play. Bu is very fast and technically gifted.
Current indicators in the tour
Yunchaokete is ranked 123rd in the world. This is his highest position so far. The Chinese player has won two open hard court titles this season - he won the challengers in Wuhi and Granby. Bu now has nine trophies in his career.
