Francisco Cerundolo is a precocious talent and the quicker he adapts to all court tennis, the better it is for tennis. Pedro Martinez is another clay-court specialist who finds it tough on the quicker grass courts. Expect a back-and-forth battle between the two with the young Argentine just clinching this.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Cerundolo in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"nqf1zGdtTz1lhmndp3BQbw\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1398834189\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'nqf1zGdtTz1lhmndp3BQbw',sig:'C9cCH4p_UIsX106buQFWlo4t9H1ZriASW81UOzpxh-w=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1398834189',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Jenson Brooksby vs Filip Krajinovic<\/h4>\n<p>Head to head &#8211; First Meeting<\/p>\n<p>Both players have had a middling season so far with Jenson Brooksby failing to capitalize on <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2021\/09\/05\/jenson-brooksby-breakthrough-season-us-open\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">a strong start<\/a> to the season. Perhaps the quick grass courts will suit the American better and it&#8217;ll be interesting to follow Brooksby now. Filip Krajinovic is still a strong baseliner on tour but the Serb does lack the variety required to excel on grass courts. These two will play each other for the first time and it should make for decent viewing with the American using his variety to bamboozle the Serb here.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Brooksby in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"OWXmXFAMTL516lARWmdvjQ\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1385880227\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'OWXmXFAMTL516lARWmdvjQ',sig:'jtANlRQGoDnBWbW4Zv9yFDkj-9ymd0mS75lADuRMgBA=',w:'594px',h:'421px',items:'1385880227',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Tommy Paul vs Denis Shapovalov<\/h4>\n<p>Head to head &#8211; Paul 1-0 Shapovalov<\/p>\n<p>Denis Shapovalov will look to rebound quickly after a disappointing first round exit in Stuttgart. The 2021 <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/wimbledon\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Wimbledon<\/a> semifinalist will need to regroup if he&#8217;s to make something out of the 2022 season. Tommy Paul has beaten the Canadian in the lone previous meeting but that was on hard courts with the grass courts being a different challenge altogether. Expect Paul to come out of the blocks firing but the Canadian&#8217;s serve should start firing eventually and wrestle control of the match.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Shapovalov in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Main Photo from Getty.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day 2 of the ATP Queen&#8217;s Club Championships sees exciting tennis action on the cards with several young contenders seeking to find their feet on the grass courts.
