Young hands third-seeded Garnett upset defeat in singles
SAN CLEMENTE, CA - Third-seeded Connor Garnett claimed a silver medal in singles at the Select Medical Orange County Cup last year, but he won't be leaving with any hardware in that particular discipline this time around.
Enter No. 28 Donald Young, who handed Garnett an 11-2, 2-11, 11-7 loss at Life Time Rancho San Clemente on Wednesday to advance to the Round of 16.
Young, 34, is definitely making some noise in SoCal.
He defeated No. 33 Mota Alhouni in the Round of 64 on Tuesday, which set the stage for his duel with Garnett.
