Saturday at ATP Delray Beach will feature the tournament’s semifinals, with an all-seed lineup promising high-quality and exciting tennis. At this point, it’s very difficult to predict who will take the trophy home, especially after world No. 4 and two-time defending champion Taylor Fritz was upset in the quarterfinals by Alejandro Davidovich Fokina. All four players have a very good chance of getting their hands on this trophy. But who will reach the final?
Head-to-head: first meeting
This is a highly intriguing semifinal matchup, with two players playing some excellent tennis in 2025. Michelsen is a young player steadily rising through the rankings, having had his first significant Grand Slam run in Australia last month, while Kecmanovic is looking to get back to his best level and has been playing great so far in 2025.
Michelsen was fortunate to get past an injured Mmoh (who had won the first set), but he avenged last week’s Dallas defeat to Norrie and should be feeling very confident as he chases his first-ever ATP-level title. Kecmanovic, however, is a former finalist at this event, showing he is very comfortable in these conditions. All things considered, this should be a very tight match, decided by very small margins in the key moments of the match.
Prediction: Kecmanovic in 3

Head-to-head: Arnaldi 2-0 Davidovich Fokina
When the pair faced last week in Dallas, Arnaldi won, dropping only four games in the process, but Fokina has been playing much better this week, as proved by his victory against world No. 4 and two-time defending ATP Delray Beach champion Taylor Fritz. Like the first semifinal, this should be a very tight match, decided by the slimmest of margins. It will certainly not be anything like their Dallas match last week, even if it is fair to say Arnaldi is the slight favorite here.
Prediction: Arnaldi in 3
