Rio Olympic Tennis: August 8th Men’s Singles Predictions
Predicted Winners in BOLD I will have something up regarding the state of the men’s draw as I think that topic deserves its own post.

Rio Olympic Tennis: August 7th Men’s Singles Predictions
Predicted Winners in BOLD Dustin Brown VS Thomaz Bellucci – I think the home court edge will be big in this match. Also, the slow surface hurts Dreddy’s attacking style.

Rio Olympic Tennis: August 6 Men’s Singles Predictions
Predicted Winners in BOLD Albert Ramos-Vinolas VS (4) Kei Nishikori – Kei should win, but his deep run in Canada may make an adjustment to Rio a bit slower than some other players’ process of adaptation. Malek Jaziri VS (5) Jo-Wilfried Tsonga – I like Tsonga so long as he is feeling healthy. (6) Gael Monfils VS Vasek Pospisil – Pospisil has a canon serve…
