Benjamin Bonzi vs. John Isner Predictions: This One’s Gonna Be A Tempting Match for Audience

Benjamin Bonzi vs. John Isner will take place on Monday 15th August, 2022 at 19:30 (Moscow time) at the Lindner Family Tennis Center in Mason.

In his 35 matches this year, Bonzi has averaged 23.2 games per match (21.8 in three-set matchups) (across all court surfaces). Bonzi has won 81.7% of his serve games and 21.3% of his return games so far this year. Bonzi has won 22.2% of his return games and 79.5% of his serve games on hard courts.

Given his poor season, John Isner has lately dropped dramatically in the rankings, moving up to #48 from Bonzi's position. Despite having won eleven titles on the surface of the court in his career, he has struggled this year on hard courts, with a 7-9 record. However, he is ageing, which makes it very challenging to call this match.

With his infamous serve, 37-year-old John Isner still poses a significant danger on hardcourts and grass, albeit the veteran has recently been outplayed by young Americans Maxime Cressy and Jenson Brooksby.

In their first meeting at the Hall of Fame Open last month, it took three close tiebreakers to overcome world number 49 Benjamin Bonzi. As he advances on the tour, the Frenchman has had his last three matches go to a decider, most recently in a loss to Frances Tiafoe in Montreal this week.

Given that they previously played each other in a tiebreaker, Isner is the more likely winner of this match and should win at least one set. A intriguing one-off in this situation is a combination on Isner to win in three sets and over 0.5 tiebreaks.
