Thiago Agustin Tirante vs Mackenzie McDonald prediction
Thiago Agustin Tirante cruised into the next stage after a dominant win over Colton Smith in the first-round. He won the first seven games of the match and did not even concede a break point as he won 6-0 6-3 after one hour and 11 minutes. The Argentine reached the quarter-finals of the Rio Open last month.
He goes up against Mackenzie McDonald next after he defeated compatriot and defending champion Jenson Brooksby in straight sets. McDonald wasn’t broken and saved four break points as he won 6-4 6-2. That was his second victory on the ATP Tour this season, following a first-round win at Indian Wells at the beginning of this month.
McDonald will take a lot of confidence from knocking Brooksby out early on, but Tirante has a stronger record on this surface, having picked up several Challenger titles, and he performed well in his first-round match.
