Jenson Brooksby and Arthur Cazaux faced off on Sunday in the second round of the Cincinnati Masters 1000.
The American won 7-5, 6-1 against the Frenchman, but the real turning point of the match came in the second set at 1-0, with Cazaux serving. The Frenchman indeed held serve for 30 minutes, featuring 17 deuces, 12 game points saved, and six break points for Brooksby.
It was with a winning backhand return that the American finally ended this utterly wild game, during which the two players contested a total of 40 points. Trailing by a set and a break, Cazaux then lost four of the next five games.
Brooksby, who celebrated winning this game like a victory (see video below), will face either Karen Khachanov or Valentin Royer in the third round.
