Ruusuvuori Will Look to Regain Form
Following a dismal run on clay and grass courts, his less preferred surfaces, Finland’s Emil Ruusuvuori would be relieved to be back on the hard courts, where he has played some of his best tennis earlier this year and also flourished at the lower levels.
Ruusuvuori has won 10 titles at the lower levels and all 10 of those have come on hard courts.
The 22-year-old has a career record of 18-15 on hard courts and is 8-6 on the surface this year, having not been eliminated in the first round of any of the tour-level hard court events this year.
A semifinalist in Nur Sultan last year, Ruusuvuori made his Round of 16 debut at a Masters 1000 event in Miami and also reached the second round in Dubai as a qualifier thsi year. He will be looking to regain his form on hard courts having won just two of his last six matches on clay and grass combined.

McDonald In Decent Touch
McDonald too prefers playing on hard courts, and a run to the fourth round of the Australian Open earlier this year is a testament to that.
The American had a decent run on the other surfaces as well, reaching the second round of the French Open as a qualifier and and also making the main draw at Wimbledon, after winning all three qualifiers.
A three-time Challenger and two-time Futures winner, all five of McDonald’s triumphs have come on hard courts. He didn’t have a great return to the surface though, falling to Ernesto Escobedo in the first round in Los Cabos last week.
Overall McDonald comes into the tournament with an 8-9 record this year and 6-6 on hard courts. He has done well at the Challenger level though, winning a hard-court tournament and featuring in the semifinals of one clay and one grass event.
Ruusuvuori v McDonald Prediction and Tip
McDonald has been consistently delivering results on various surfaces, across levels, while Ruusuvuori has completely lost momentum. It will be tough start for the Finn. Expect the American to advance.
Tip: McDonald to win: 4/5 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
