#2 Alexander Zverev vs Nick Kyrgios
The battle of the rising stars, without a shadow of a doubt. Both Zverev and Kyrgios have been hailed as future Grand Slam champions and World No.1s by current and former tennis players as a result of the number of promising performances they have produced over the past two years.
Both Zverev and Kyrgios have been in decent form this year with Zverev defeating Federer at the Hopman Cup and almost defeating Rafael Nadal at the Australian Open while Kyrgios defeated Novak Djokovic at the Mexican Open quarter-finals.
The duo are close friends and will be locking horns for the first time at an individual tournament. Both players won their respective second round matches at the Indian Wells Masters in straight sets and as they are both aggressive baseliners, this match will be expected to be a humdinger.
