Tommy Paul takes on Frenchman Adrian Mannarino tonight in the Cincinnati Open Round of 32.
Paul’s 2025 season began strongly, with deep runs at the Australian hard-court events, a semifinal showing at the Rome Masters, and a quarterfinal at Roland Garros. But an abdominal injury stalled his momentum — and it comes at a point in the season when his results have historically dipped.
Mannarino, 37, may be ranked outside the top 90, but he’s far from an easy out. The crafty left-hander relies on guile, court craft, and sharp angles rather than raw power.
His form this year has been uneven, yet his unorthodox style remains effective in unsettling higher-ranked opponents. He’s already shown he can push Paul, with the two splitting their previous two encounters.
Mannarino–Paul Head-to-Head
The Mannarino-Paul head-to-head is tied at one match apiece. Mannarino won their most recent meeting — at the Paris Masters in 2024 — in straight sets. Paul defeated Mannarino in 2022 at Wimbledon in three straight sets.
Prediction
Paul in 2 tight sets. Mannarino’s experience will keep sets competitive, but Paul’s athleticism and shot-making should see him through.
