Predicted Winners in BOLD
8 A. Murray vs. M. Bachinger – Murray would like a quick win to put any concerns about cramping further behind him.
31 F. Verdasco vs. A. Kuznetsov – Verdasco is fit and had a day of rest, but I think round 1 probably took something out of him and Kuznetsov is a quality opponent. Therefore, I am predicting a mild upset.
N. Kyrgios vs. A. Seppi – In a battle of youth versus veteran, I am leaning toward youth.
5 M. Raonic vs. P. Gojowczyk – The Canadian powerbroker should win.
16 T. Robredo vs. S. Bolelli – This is an interesting match and is well worth watching, but I think Robredo’s fitness makes the difference.
B. Coric vs.V. Estrella Burgos
23 L. Mayer vs. M. Ebden – Mayer’s grinder mentality is fun to see in person.
1 N. Djokovic vs. P. Mathieu – Mathieu is very fit and a veteran, but Novak should be in no danger.
9 J. Tsonga vs. A. Nedovyesov – The King of Toronto wins.
P. Carreno Busta vs. B. Paire
13 J. Isner vs. J. Struff – Isner and Kohlschreiber must have yet another 3rd round tilt.
10 K. Nishikori vs. P. Andujar – MATCH OF THE DAY ALERT – These guys should get after it with a lot of entertaining baseline exchanges.
22 P. Kohlschreiber vs. M. Llodra – This is an interesting match, but bring on Isner.
28 G. Garcia-Lopez vs. S. Querrey – Querrey with a much needed mild upset.
