ATP Washington picks: Ben Shelton vs. Gabriel Diallo odds, prediction
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. Thursday's showdown between Ben Shelton and Gabriel Diallo at the ATP Washington Open may not break into the mainstream, but tennis fanatics and bettors will consider it a can't-miss tilt. Shelton and Diallo are two rising powers in the sport, and they both should be well-suited for the North American hard-court swing, which favors players who can overpower their opponents with their serve and groundstrokes. Shelton, the World No. 8, is a -200 favorite over Diallo on Thursday. ATP Washington: Shelton vs. Diallo odds, prediction Diallo defeated Shelton in their only professional meeting, but that came back in 2022 on the Challenger circuit, so there's nothing you can really learn from that result. Not only are the two big-serving stars much better players now, but they're also in terrific form. Shelton is just a couple of weeks removed from a trip to the Wimbledon quarterfinals, where he lost to Jannik Sinner. Shelton had dropped just one set prior to his loss to the eventual champion. Diallo was stopped in the second round of Wimbledon by No. 4 Taylor Fritz, but he took him to five sets, ending a terrific spell on the grass in 2025. The Montreal native won a title at the Libema Open as part of a 9-3 run on the lawn. This is the first tournament for each player since Wimbledon, but both Shelton and Diallo looked terrific in straight-set wins in the Round of 32. Ben Shelton in action at ATP Washington Open. Geoff Burke-Imagn Images Both of these players are unabashed about how they want matches to unfold. Shelton and Diallo boast two of the best serves on tour, and they'll want to win quick, cheap points when they're starting with the ball. Given the stylistic matchup, it's no surprise that the Over/Under is set at 24.5 games, with juice on the over. In all likelihood, this match will be decided by which player holds their nerve in tiebreaks, and that really narrows the margin for error for both players. In this kind of matchup, I'd lean towards the underdog, especially a punchy one like Diallo.

ATP Washington: Daniil Medvedev vs. Reilly Opelka odds, picks, and prediction
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. It's been a trying year for former World No. 1 Daniil Medvedev. The Russian has dealt with a number of injuries, which have caused his form to fluctuate throughout the season. Medvedev has only reached one final in 2025, and he's lost to more than a handful of players outside the top 50, most recently to Benjamin Bonzi at Wimbledon. Medvedev has had plenty of success during the North American hard-court swing in his career — he is a US Open champion, after all — so perhaps we see a strong close to the season from the Russian. He is a big favorite over Reilly Opelka on Wednesday at the ATP Washington Open. ATP Washington Open: Medvedev vs. Opelka odds, prediction This is an intriguing battle between two very different players. At the height of his powers, Medvedev was one of the best defensive players on the ATP Tour, and beating him essentially forced you to solve a puzzle. He is unorthodox, savvy, and could cover the court better than any player this side of Novak Djokovic. The Russian's game has tapered off this season, but he should have an advantage against Opelka, who is a one-dimensional player who relies on a massive serve to do damage. Reilly Opelka defeated Daniil Medvedev in June. Susan Mullane-Imagn Images Opelka's defensive game still leaves plenty to be desired, but if his serve is working, he can be a chore. Medvedev found that out in a 6-7, 6-7 defeat to the American on the grass in June. It's a different ballgame in the heat on hard courts, conditions that should mute Opelka's serve more than the grass did last month. It's been a while since Medvedev has been firing on all cylinders, but he should get off to a decent start in Washington against a player that shouldn't provide too many surprises. Back Meddy to get this one over the line quickly.
