Roman Andres Burruchaga vs Brandon Nakashima prediction
Roman Andres Burruchaga extended his winning run to six matches as he defeated Adam Walton in the opening round of the US Men’s Clay Court Championship. The Argentine was broken on serve in his first service game and went 2-0 down but recovered as he won six games in a row to take the first set. He controlled the second to win 6-2 6-3 after one hour and 25 minutes. He is up to his highest ranking of 77 in the world, having won a Challenger event in Sao Paulo last week.
He now faces Brandon Nakashima. The American beat Martin Damm in straight sets. Both players exchanged breaks in the first set, with Nakashima dominating the breaker. The second set was more comfortable as Nakashima won 7-6 (0) 6-2.
Nakashima will start as the favourite, but Burruchaga is a specialist on this surface and cannot be disregarded after his current run of form.
