World Tour Finals 2015: Roger Federer vs. Kei Nishikori Predicition
Roger Federer vs. Kei Nishikori This match is less clear to me. Roger is playing better than Kei through two rounds, but Roger also has less to play for entering Thursday. I think Roger wants to win his group in order to set up a potential Djokovic vs. Nadal semi with Roger likely playing Murray…
World Tour Finals 2015: Novak Djokovic vs. Tomas Berdych Prediction
Novak Djokovic vs. Tomas Berdych I think this match will be fairly one-sided. Novak Djokovic can accumulate a 4-2 set record with a straight set win over Berdych.

World Tour Finals 2015: Stan Wawrinka vs. David Ferrer Prediction
Stan Wawrinka vs. David Ferrer In my view, this match all comes down to Stan’s mentality. On an indoor court at this stage of each man’s career, Stan should be able to serve big enough to dictate play. It is unclear how much fight Stan brought to his Monday match versus Nadal. Jim Courier questioned…
