Plus fitness isn't as much a factor as the grind on clay and hardcourts. I think Felix's first slam will be in New York.

Best three out of five sets still makes fitness a top priority, in my opinion. Kyrgios can make it into the round of 16 and then he hits a wall or pulls something and is forced to retire. I do agree with Opelka though, nobody wants to play him early. Cressy can be dangerous, but he's been a bag of mixed results lately. Felix has the serve to stay in touch with the other big servers and his return of serve is getting better with each passing year.
