Command Analysis

Frances Tiafoe

Current form
Tiafoe took part in a tournament in Almaty last week. Francis left that competition after the quarterfinals, where he lost to Aleksandar Vukic. The American has three wins in six matches indoors this season.
Professional qualities
Tiafoe is known for his attacking style of play and impulsive nature. His success on the court often depends on his mood, the atmosphere in the stands and other external factors. Francis is difficult to outrun physically or beat in rallies, as his power and speed are at their best. However, he often forgets about defense, getting carried away with attacking and ignoring the tactical aspects of the game.
