Hope he wins, but his ceiling is low. He's slow, and his backhand is below average.

His foot speed will limit his potential big time. Good serve and forehand though.

Just insane what's going on here. Johnson was down 2-4 in the fourth set tiebreaker and looked like he was dead. At 4-5, he breaks off a ridiculous forehand drop shot winner from the baseline. Guns a forehand at 5-6 to fight off a second match point. Pops an ace to close out the set. This kid is straight balls.

I think he will get destroyed in the fifth, but what you have to understand is he had an absolutely insane gauntlet to qualify. Johnson won 17-15 in the third set in the first round of qualification, then two more rounds just to get in the main draw.
