Brooksby Upsets Paul In Houston, To Play Tiafoe For Title
Clay Court Championship: Wildcard qualifying entrant Jenson Brooksby secured an upset 7-6(5), 3-6, 7-6(6) win over top seed Tommy Paul in the semifinals of the U.S. Men’s Clay Court Championship.
The 24-year-old American became the sixth tour-level finalist ranked outside the world’s Top 500 since 1990 and the second qualifier to reach the final of the tournament since it moved to Houston in 2001. Mariano Zabaleta also achieved the feat in 2007 before falling to Ivo Karlovic, according to ATP Tour.
The Americans exchanged multiple breaks and traded lead trajectories in each of the three sets. In the end, Brooksby prevailed in the battle of the breaks while also saving a match point in the third set tie-breaker.
