The one thing I love about Fonseca he has soo much in reserve power wise
Also he has soo much variety in his game
What a great touch at the net from Fonseca
There is the break from Fonseca just stole the point from Prizmac, control on the slide as well from Fonseca, flick fhand
Somewhere Mrzz has a big smile on his face and rightly so :)

Prizmic needs to play now with Controlled Aggression, he is now swinging wildly?
Great kicker serve and FH and Fonseca backs up his break and leads 4-1 5th set
Fonseca leads 5-2 in the 5th set, I love watching this young man:)

Fonzie has more tools in his game. Prizmic needs to work on some variety.

That is SIC from Fonseca fhand flick what a way to bring up MP
Well done Fonseca coming back from down 2 sets to love just a wonderful response from you
You get to play Novak now in the 3rd round
Fonseca d Prizmic 36 46 63 61 62
I really enjoyed this match from both players, Prizmic level dropped from the 1st 2nd sets, still he is a good player to watch in the future

I could not follow the comments here, but I watched most of the match. Even in the first two sets I had the feeling Fonseca was the best player on the court, Prizmic (who is a great player, BTW), was simply serving like a monster, and that gave him the two sets lead. Giant win by Fonseca, he played way better than I thought he would.

You have to be very happy with Fonseca, as you know I love watching him play, he had soo much in reserve today and finished strongly and will play Novak in the 3rd round

Great win for Fonzie - that's the sort of match that helps developmentally. I actually think he could beat Oldkovic.
What I liked he finished strongly and appeared to have a lot in reserve, physical wise in a best of 5 sets, agree this kind of match helps him mentally, when he got the momentum he went on with it.

Level wise, he is the heavy favorite. So far he is playing waaay better than Djokovic. If you watch the highlights of both matches today, Djokovic's seems to be in slow motion. Not only that , the difference in depth is abysmal.

However, he is the youngster and Djokovic has thousands of major wins, so not Impossible that the script changes...

I'd still have Djoker as favourite but Fonseca has a chance for sure.
