Rob Vinciletti: Tuesday Tennis Brooksby vs McDonald at the Firenze Open

238

The Firenze Open in Italy takes center stage and we have a pair of Americans set to do battle in Jenson Brooksby and MacKenzie McDonald. We will be back Brooksby here as has won 4 of the 5 sets between the two in the head to head series and has won both meetings, both of which were this year on hard courts. Brooksby is the more distinguished of the two and has has better results making it to the 3rd round at both Wimbledeon and The U.S. Open, as well as reaching 2 other finals this year. McDonald has had mixed results and lost in the 2nd round of the Japan Open last week. He has not been able to take advantage of the Brooksby serve in their matches and has lost most of the longer rallies. The Match should be close and may go 3 sets. However, we will back Brooksby here to advance. Rob Vinciletti
