Matteo Arnaldi enters the US Open first-round matchup as the clear favorite against veteran James Duckworth, reflecting his higher ATP ranking near No. 34 and stronger overall hard-court results this season. Arnaldi reached the French Open semifinals earlier in 2026 before illness withdrawal and has posted competitive showings in Masters events despite recent losses in Montreal and Cincinnati. Duckworth, ranked No. 79 at age 34, built momentum with a strong Winston-Salem run on hard courts that included upsets over seeded players, yet he retired with a right-leg injury during the semifinal on August 28-29, raising questions about his physical readiness just days before the Grand Slam. The pair has no prior head-to-head history on the surface.
