ADF v. Fils is kind of a waste in the first round. I'm a big Foki fan, so I'm hoping he can come through to the later rounds, but Fils is another fun player to watch.
Hugh, OMG !! your Dark Horses pick came out to be so much true :) specially seyboth wild & Ofnar had a huge win. kudos to you. unfortunately, Dusan Lajovic ( one of my fav) dint go past the 1st round.
Kudos to you for keeping such close eyes on these guys on the block. Cheers
The QF would be a huge time for Sinner to overturn his 0-6 record against Medvedev. If Medvedev gets that far I'm picking him over Sinner here as should mean he's still confident in his game on clay
Best of 5 is a different kind of tennis and that is the reason I do not have faith in either Medvedev or any of the other guys who have recently done well such as Fils.
And best of 5 is also the reason I have very good faith in Djokovic to calmly navigate the draw and even take out Alcaraz in semis. What do you think about it?
Novak would be a heavy lock for a semi-final birth if he didn't have question marks over his elbow. And if the balls are a little heavier as medvedev is saying I think that makes this tournament even more physical and slow, which isn't what Djokovic needs on clay at this point in his career. But I'm not going to be surprised if he goes deep or wins it. He has proven himself too many times

Agreed. That is a tough first round!

Wow great call

Yeah it's not a great match up for Sinner at the moment. Will be interesting to see what happens if they meet

How are Wild’s strokes? I haven’t seen him on your previous radars or anyone else’s before now
Pretty clean and simple. Generates huge power for a short backswing. My guess is a very even/heady heavy racquet as well.
