Predicted Winners in BOLD
[7] Adrian Mannarino (FRA) vs. [SE] Ruben Bemelmans (BEL) – Mannarino has played well in the second half of 2017.
Borna Coric (CRO) vs. [WC] Henri Laaksonen (SUI) – Coric has been a bit quiet as of late.
[4] Juan Martin del Potro (ARG) vs. Joao Sousa (POR) – Delpo just grabbed his 20th career title. This will not be an easy match, and Delpo may be a bit leg weary from playing deep into last week. Still, he should win.
[3] David Goffin (BEL) vs. Hyeon Chung (KOR) – Goffin also has a good opportunity to end 2017 strongly.
Jared Donaldson (USA) vs. [Q] Marton Fucsovics (HUN)
[6] Roberto Bautista Agut (ESP) vs. Ryan Harrison (USA) – On a fast surface, I nearly took Harrison.
Donald Young (USA) vs. [Q] Julien Benneteau (FRA)
[5] Jack Sock (USA) vs. Robin Haase (NED) – Sock and Young have a chance at grabbing solid wins on the 25th.
