Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #1 – Handicap (+4) for Kwon – 1.54.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction #2 – Total Games Over 21 – 1.61.
We are not expecting an easy win for Brooksby. He had problems in the first round after all. Confrontation with Wu was not easy for him. It’s likely that Quon will also make life difficult for the favourite.
Both players have been unimpressive lately. However, Kwon is playing at his home tournament. He’ll have the support of the stands. In this case, it will probably not be easy for Jenson. Most likely Kwon will be able to put up a fight.
Brooksby started the tournament with a win over Wu Tung-Lin (7-6, 3-6, 6-0). At the beginning of the match, the American’s game was understated. Jenson took the first set only on a tie-break and gave up the second set.
However, in the decisive set, everything fell into place. Brooksby did not give up a single game.
Last week, the 21-year-old tennis player crashed out of a tournament in San Diego. In the second round, he sensationally lost to Christopher O’Connell.
So far, Brooksby’s main success in the second half of the season has been reaching the final of the tournament in Atlanta. In the decisive match, the American tennis player lost to Alex De Minaur (3-6, 3-6).
Brooksby has won four of his last five matches as an underdog.
A similar scenario was followed in the first match as Kwon defeated compatriot Chung Yun-seong (7-6, 6-7, 6-1).
The first two sets ended in tie-breaks before Kwon crushed his opponent 6-1 in the third.
The South Korean tennis player played three tough matches in the Davis Cup in mid-September. After beating Felix Auger Aliassime, Kwon lost to Miomir Kecmanovic and Carlos Alcaraz.
Important fact: Kwon has never made it past the second round at the ATP level this year.
Kwon had at least 20 games in six of his previous seven meetings.
In 4 of Brooksby’s last 5 matches, more than 9.5 games were played in the first set. We offer to bet on “1st Set – Over 9.5” with odds of 1.71.
