Predicted Winners in BOLD
[WC] Michael Berrer (GER) vs. [Q] Florian Mayer (GER) H2H – Mayer’s match play in the qualifying rounds gives him an edge in my mind.
[7] Philipp Kohlschreiber (GER) vs. Denis Kudla (USA) H2H – Kudla is a fighter who plays his best tennis on grass. However, Kohlschreiber in Germany is a tough task for Kudla to tackle.
[1] Roger Federer (SUI) vs. Taylor Fritz (USA) H2H – Federer should win for multiple reasons. Fed is looking for his first title of 2016. That means Fritz better bring his A game.
[2] Marin Cilic (CRO) vs. [Q] Radek Stepanek (CZE) H2H – Cilic should win, but the worm is so hard to predict and Cilic has been pretty disappointing since winning the 2014 US Open.
