The local fans at the Miami Open will have the chance to witness 2 all-American matches on the Grandstand with the presence of Taylor Harry Fritz, Marcos Giron, John Isner and Mackenzie Mcdonald.
Fritz and Giron will kick start the day on the Grandstand at 11 am. It’s interesting to notice that Taylor and Marcos have played already 3 times but only at challenger level, with Fritz flaunting a 3-0 win-loss record. The prediction is Fritz winning in straight sets.
Isner and Mcdonald have never played against each other so far. They are scheduled to compete at 8.30 pm. In theory, the favorite is John (in 3 sets?). However, he didn’t look in great shape in Acapulco and therefore an upset is definitely on the cards.
