TipMacDonald's victory

2.11

Due to injuries, McDonald fell out of the top 100 in the world rankings and is now actively trying to get back there. To do this, Mackenzie needs to win. In Cincinnati, the American's motivation is to defend last year's third round. We believe that McDonald will have a chance of success in the upcoming match.

Our prediction is McDonald's victory with odds of 2.11
