Command Analysis

Mickelsen had a pretty good run in his last tournament. In early November, he played in the tournament in Metz, where he reached the semifinals, where he lost to Benjamin Bonzi. The American has five wins in nine matches indoors this year.
Professional qualities
Mickelsen is not a typical representative of the American tennis school, where the emphasis is on serving and finishing rallies quickly. However, his serve is at a good level - he serves quite a few aces per match. His weak point is his forehand, which sometimes lacks both strength and depth. At the same time, Alex two-handed backhand is his main support. This stroke is distinguished by enviable stability and accuracy, capable of withstanding the onslaught of any opponent.

Basavareddy main weapon is his two-handed backhand. He skillfully changes the direction and tempo of his strokes, creating difficulties for his opponents.
