THE PREDICTION

21-year-old Jenson Brooksby takes a three-match losing streak into a Wimbledon debut after defeats at ‘s-Hertogenbosch, Queen’s and most recently the Eastbourne International. The American produced a stunning run to the round of 16 at the US Open last September, taking the first set from eventual runner-up Novak Djokovic before defeat, but he has struggled on clay and now grass since with plenty of room for improvement to come from an exciting prospect. World number 160 Mikhail Kukushkin beat Philipp Kohlschreiber in qualifying to reach the main draw at Wimbledon for a 10th time but the Kazakh veteran is far from the player who made the round of 16 here back in 2019. A 1-6 record on tour for 2022 suggests Brooksby will have too much for the 34-year-old but the suitably cautious move remains taking the American to win outright instead of in straight sets.
