Predicted Winners in BOLD

Queen’s Club

Andy Murray vs. Marin Cilic – The Croatian is the defending champion so he has to have a shot here.  However, Murray is one of the 4 best players in the world for a reason.  Cilic certainly needs this win more as he has lost some of the momentum he gathered in 2012.  Murray is coming back from an injury and even reaching the championship bodes well for where his game will be when Wimbledon begins.  I think Murray wins by a score around 6-4, 6-4.

Halle

Roger Federer vs. Mikhail Youzhny – Federer is 14-0 versus Youzhny (including a  5-0 record on grass).  They had a close match at Wimbledon in 2011.  Youzhny is talented and a little crazy, but Federer is a strong favorite here.  I predict Federer to win 6-4, 6-1.
