Brownell Takes Victory On Home Soil
 American
Timothy Brownell claimed his second victory of 2022 on home soil with a
confident win over Mexico’s Alfredo Avila in the final of the Sam Aguiar
Louisville Open on Saturday evening in Louisville, Kentucky.
Brownell, the World No.68, came into the Challenger 10 level tournament
as the top seed, and was aiming for his second win of the year after his
title run at the J.P. Morgan Tournament of Champions Challenger in New
York City back in May, where he then reached the second round of the
Gold level J.P. Morgan Tournament of Champions a few days later.
His run in Louisville started in the second round, after receiving a bye
through the opening day’s action, where he got the better of Pakistan’s
Nasir Iqbal in a four-game contest that lasted just shy of the hour
mark. He then defeated another Pakistani in Muhammad Ashab Irfan, this
time in straight games.
The semi-finals saw Brownell overcome Egypt’s Seif Shenawy, the
tournament’s No.5 seed, in just 28 minutes, and dropping just 13 points
in the process, to move through to the final, where he took on Mexico’s
Avila, already a winner on Tour this season,
However, the Mexican came into the final off the back of a 100-minute
battle in the last four, and Brownell used his freshness to take the
victory. He ran to into a two-game lead, and although Avila won the
third to bring himself back into the contest, it was the American that
took the title, winning 11-4, 11-8, 7-11, 11-6 in exactly 50 minutes, to
secure his second crown of the year.

Jeeva and Chotrani Cause Opening Day Upsets
The opening day of the Sam Aguiar Louisville Open threw up a couple of
surprise results, with Malaysia’s Sanjay Jeeva and Indian Veer Chotrani
both taking down higher-ranks opposition to make the second round of the
Challenger 10 level competition.
The action got underway at the Pendennis Club in Louisville, Kentucky on
Tuesday afternoon, with Jeeva being the first on to Court 1 in his clash
with Guatemalan Alejandro Enriquez. The Malaysian seemed in complete
control throughout, and after winning the first 11-3, he held the
momentum in the contest. He maintained that to the end, securing victory
in straight games to book his place in the last 16, where he will face
No.2 seed Alfredo Avila.
The other surprise result saw India’s Veer Chotrani get the better of
Colombian Edgar Ramirez Bautista, in a match that had two very distinct
parts to it. The first two games flew by, with the Indian dropping just
a single point in both to hold the advantage in the match. The third,
though, went deep into a tie-break, with Chotrani eventually winning
16-14 to book his spot in the second round.
Elsewhere, the only match to go to a fourth game saw Pakistan’s Muhammad
Ashab Irfan get the better of USA’s Jamie Ruggiero. Irfan led 2-0 after
winning the second on a tie-break, but the American fought back to win
the third game 12-10. However, the Pakistani regrouped, and won the
third game comfortably to advance to the last 16.
The second round of the Sam Aguiar Louisville Open will take place on
Wednesday, September 7, with the eight seeded players coming into the
draw. You can keep up to date with live scores from the event right
