Bucharest 2015: Championship Prediction – Vesely vs. Garcia-Lopez

[7] Jiri Vesely (CZE) v [5] Guillermo Garcia-Lopez (ESP) H2H

Will youth be served?  Jiri is 10 years younger than GGL.  GGL is a solid competitor who is not going to beat himself.  Vesely is a 6’6″ lefty with more weapons.  This is one of those do you pick a steady player who knows how big this opportunity is versus a guy with a lot of power. This is their first meeting.  I think that favors the veteran.  If Vesely handles the situation well, he might dictate play and win the match.  My guess is that GGL will find a way to get traction and grind out a win though.

 My Prediction Guillermo Garcia-Lopez d. Jiri Vesely 6-3, 7-5
