There are a number of fascinating matchups that are set to unfold, but perhaps none are as exciting as the match of the tournament on paper thus far between Nick Kyrgios and Daniil Medvedev.

Read on to see what our analysts have to say about that match and more.

Will Sabalenka be able to move on from the serving yips that have plagued her start to the season? Gertler isn't so sure, and he sees value in Wang because of it.
