And in the second round, Jordan confidently beat Yuichi Sugita in straight sets. Thompson lost only two games (6-0, 6-2).
Cressy builds all his game around his big serve. He doesn't really have any other jokers up his sleeve. But this is a good enough advantage to outplay different opponents on grass.
