In the 1/32 finals of the ATP tournament in Cincinnati, the winner of the Masters in Montreal, Pablo Carreno-Busta from Spain, will play against Serbian Miomir Ketsmanovich.
Pablo Carreno-Busta
The 31-year-old representative of Spain had a great time last week in Canada and deservedly won the ATP-1000 tournament, which was the biggest success of his career so far. Recall that on the evening of the fourteenth of August, Carreno-Busta won a strong-willed victory over Hubert Hurkach from Poland in three sets – 3:6; 6:3; 6:3. The tennis players spent one hour and forty-five minutes on the court.
After winning the tournament in Montreal, in an interview with various publications, Carreno-Busta said that he loves to play hard since he grew up in Gijon, where they play mainly on this surface. Tournaments in Canada and the USA are successful for Pablo, as he is very comfortable here.
Miomir Ketsmanovich
The 22-year-old representative of Serbia, in turn, failed at the ATP tournament in Montreal last week. Already in the 1/32 finals, Ketsmanovich lost in two sets to Botik van de Zandhulp from the Netherlands – 1:6; 5:7. As a result, Miomir had more time to prepare for the tournament in Cincinnati, but the Serbian's form raises very big questions.
Forecast
In this match, Pablo Carreno-Busta is considered the bookmakers' favorite, which is not surprising. Although the Spaniard will not have time to rest after the last big tournament in Canada, but due to the positive emotions in this meeting, Carreno-Busta is quite capable of outplaying the unstable Ketsmanovich.
