Zizou Bergs vs Jenson Brooksby prediction
It’s fair to say Zizou Bergs hasn’t quite found his A-game in 2026.
The Belgian won three matches in the United Cup but has since lost three of his last four.
It’s a similar story for Jenson Brooksby, who hasn’t won since his first outing of the year in Auckland and is currently on a four-match losing streak.
The similarity doesn't end there with the American sitting just three places worse off than world number 44 Zizou in the rankings.
Indeed, there’s little between them in form and ranking and there’s no head-to-head either with this being their first contest.
Brooksby is always regarded as a tricky customer that makes opponents hate the match-up and his losing run won’t continue forever. Jenson remains on an upward trajectory as he pushes back up the ATP ladder, so if you are looking for the rationale for an outright winner, it slightly favours him. That said, there are many unknowns here and one to be careful with.
