At 26, Tiafoe is the more experienced campaigner, but it's 21-year-old Shelton who has edged each of their two previous meetings.

Their most recent meeting came in the final of the U.S. Men's Clay Court Championship in Houston in April, where Shelton won in three sets, claiming a second ATP Tour title.
