Taylor Fritz is the pick to beat Daniel Mérida in Cincinnati.
Fritz’s powerful serve and aggressive forehand are especially effective on hard courts. He should be able to dictate the shorter rallies and put consistent pressure on Mérida’s service games.
Mérida is a capable competitor, but Fritz’s greater ATP-level experience, serve quality, and overall hard-court pedigree give him a significant advantage.

Jaime Faria is the pick to defeat Adam Walton in Cincinnati.
Faria’s aggressive baseline game and powerful groundstrokes give him the ability to dictate rallies, while his movement allows him to stay competitive in longer exchanges. On hard courts, his first-strike tennis can put significant pressure on Walton.
Walton is a solid hard-court player with a strong serve, but Faria’s attacking game gives him the edge if he can maintain consistency and capitalize on break-point opportunities.
