Cincinnati Masters Predictions: August 14

Predicted Winners in BOLD These have to be quick today

Second Round

Rafael Nadal (4) vs. Benjamin Becker – Rafa rolls

Milos Raonic (12) vs. Janko Tipsarevic – Janko has been in a free-fall as of late.

Tommy Haas (11) vs. Marcel Granollers – On a hard court, I am taking Haas.

Juan Martin del Potro (7) vs. Nikolay Davydenko – Does JMDP begin a charge toward New York today?

Feliciano Lopez vs. Jeremy Chardy – Close to a 50-50 match

Andy Murray (2) vs. Mikhail Youzhny – Murray gets back down to business after a Montreal lapse.

Stanislas Wawrinka (9) vs. Tommy Robredo – Stan is favored, but I expect an upset here.

Novak Djokovic (1) vs. Juan Monaco – Nole advances

Dmitry Tursunov vs. James Blake – Revenge for Indianapolis in 2008 if Blake carries a grudge.

Tomas Berdych (6) vs. Jarkko Nieminen – Berdych wins

Richard Gasquet (8) vs. John Isner – Power vs. Variety?  On US soil, Isner gets my nod.

David Goffin vs. Vasek Pospisil – Goffin reminds me of a young Davydenko (or has that potential).

      Thanks! I will get into WTA predictions when I have enough to say about the matches. I am following the WTA more and more, but I don’t have any insight as of yet in the early rounds.
