Yeah, Giron is a little older at 27 than McDonald at 25 (interesting that both attended UCLA). I would say that Giron has a little bigger game than McDonald (better weapons) which is crucial at the top level of tennis. I think both guys will be able to have a successful career on tour, but I don't think either guy will be competing for the top trophies.

I've watched a few of Korda's matches though and I really like his game, big serve, great groundstrokes, and excellent court coverage. I think his dad passed down some fantastic tennis genes.
