As expected, the crowd for Fonseca was vibrant, as Brazilians wearing canary yellow soccer jerseys and waving their country’s flag helped push their NextGen star over the line against a formidable opponent.
Expect another terrific atmosphere as Fonseca squares up with No. 21 Tomas Machac on Wednesday.

It’s rare you see a true pick’em in tennis, but that’s what we’re dealing with in this clash between two rising stars.
Machac, like Fonseca, had no issues in Round 1, defeating Luca Nardi in straight sets and only losing five games in the process.
Machac was the clear favorite in that tilt, but it was a little surprising given the Czech’s form coming into the year’s final Grand Slam.
The 24-year-old had lost three matches in a row coming into the US Open, and all three defeats came at the hands of players ranked outside the top 70.
That meant that Machac entered the tournament without a win during the North American hard-court swing, which was perplexing since his splits suggest that this is his preferred surface.
He did rebound against Nardi, but he’ll need to carry that form against Fonseca, who will be buoyant after getting a win in his tournament debut on Monday.
With the crowd behind him, Fonseca should be on the front foot against an opponent who came into the tournament unfancied after sliding through the summer.
One match shouldn’t change that, and I’d suggest that this environment is the exact opposite of what a player looking to find his game would want to face.
