In the 1/16 challenger finals in Columbus, we are waiting for another confrontation of American tennis players between Jack Sock and Christopher Eubanks.
Jack Juice
29-year-old Juice, has not played yet this year. At the same time, Jack finished the season early enough last year. His last tournament was the Knoxville Challenger, which took place in mid-November. At this tournament, Sok reached the quarterfinals, where he lost to German Daniel Altmaier in three sets – 6:3; 5:7; 6:7 (2:7).
Christopher Eubanks
But the 25-year-old Eubanks has already managed to travel to Australia this year and qualify for the Australian Open. In his first match, Eubanks beat Tristan Skulkeit from Australia - 6:3; 6:4. But then Christopher caught the Russian tennis player Roman Safiullin, who no longer allowed the American to stay in Australia – 4:6; 6:1; 1:6.
Between themselves, Jack Juice and Christopher Eubanks played last year at the challenger in Cary. On hard Christopher was stronger in two sets – 7:6 (7:4); 7:5.
Forecast
Given the fact that Jack Sock has not played yet this year, it will be difficult for him to count on success, especially in a confrontation with such an opponent, and therefore we still suggest betting on Eubanks' victory.
