Dino Prizmic

MTO

medical time-court (chat with doctor)

Prizmic recovered from a slow start to beat Nikoloz Basilashvili quite comfortably in the end (1:53 hr). The 19-year-old wildcard was overpowered in the opening set but gradually grew into the match and was playing some excellent stuff by the close. He did a particularly good job hitting down the lines in sets two and three, getting Basilashvili on the move. Unable to set himself as cleanly as he could early on, the Georgian began to spray the ball off both wings. Prizmic had the doctor out at the end of the first but didn’t appear to be hindered. Commentary: "Having a more defensive playstyle can be a death sentence vs Basilashvili—he can keep cracking full-power shots off both wings with no end in sight when he's in rhythm. But Prizmic stuck to it and finally started getting the cracks he wanted." Prizmic 28w 20ue; Basilashvili 27w 38ue. Prizmic 2/6 6/3 6/2.

Ben Shelton

MTO

medical time-out (blister)

Shelton dropped just 7 points on serve and played with too much controlled aggression in a straight set win over McDonald. Shelton took an MTO early in the second set to receive treatment for a left pinky injury/blister but didn’t look physically bothered after. Shelton broke midway through each set and won 85% of overall service points in a comfortable win to start his tournament. McDonald won just 29% of second serve points and really struggled to handle the big Shelton serve (10 aces). Commentary: “Ben Shelton loves these Washington courts (2024 SFst) and showed it today in an extremely tidy performance.” Shelton 23w 15ue; McDonald 12w 23ue. Shelton 6/3 6/4.
