Basavareddy made it to the main draw of the tournament in Brisbane through the qualification. In the selection, the 19-year-old American beat quite tough opponents. In three sets, he won against Borna Goyo and in two sets, he dealt with Lucas Pouille.
Professional qualities
Basavareddy has some mental issues, including frequent failures in finals. Of the eight decisive matches he has played, he has won only two. However, if we abstract from these facts, Nishesh is a very fast and tactically competent tennis player with an excellent forehand. His serve is not his strong point, but his confident return of the ball has helped him to important victories.

Professional qualities
Monfils is an experienced player who has lost some of his speed with age. However, even without the same quick footwork, the Frenchman has a wide arsenal of shots, including slices down the line, jump volleys and powerful smashes when coming to the net. One of his main assets is his quick reflexes, which help him out at the right moments.
