Why do you think Cerúndolo will have the edge over Novak, who should be on a solid match-winning streak by the time they meet? And what leads you to believe Zverev will suffer an early exit at his favorite Grand Slam, on his preferred surface? If he does make the quarters, do you think Zverev would beat Novak?
Was mainly off Cerundolo's great season so far -- but he's gone! For Novak, I think my biggest question mark of him on clay in Bo5 is the fitness. He's essentially played more than a qualifier given his 4 matches in Geneva, which are great for his confidence and ball striking, but if he doesn't get through the early rounds easily, the physicality of grand slams could catch up with him by the later rounds. If both Novak and Zverev reach the quarters I think my pick would depend on how fresh Novak is physically. Zverev will make it a war, and Nole would need a full tank
