Reilly Opelka produced his usual serving clinic to see off Jenson Brooksby in the final of the Dallas Open winning 7-6, 7-5 over his compatriot as he sealed a third ATP title.
But for Opelka, he was full of praise for Brooksby post match saying he is a future Top 10 player who will win plenty of titles.
“I thought I played very well under pressure, especially against a great player like Jenson. He makes you very uncomfortable and he took me out of my comfort zone a lot of the match today," Opelka said during the trophy ceremony. "I really had to play my best tennis to get by and I barely did.”
“I’m a big fan of his game, a big believer in him. He’s super young and he’s got a lot of tennis ahead of him still," Opelka said of Brooksby. "The scary thing is he has a lot to even improve on and I think that’s why he’s a future Top 10 player and he’s going to be winning many titles for many years to come.”
