Wimbledon 2015: Gentlemen’s Singles Draw Initial Impressions

My Predicted Semifinalists Top Half: Novak Djokovic vs. Dominic Thiem – One of these picks is a reach, but my pre-initial take was Raonic in the semifinal round.  Jon Wertheim had the same semifinal picks as I did so I decided not to copy Wertheim too much.  I think Wawrinka is likely to have a…

Wimbledon 2015 Ladies’ Draw Initial Impressions

My Prediced Ladies’ Semifinalists Top Half: Serena Williams vs. Lucie Safarova – I can’t see Sharapova’s movement holding up for 5 matches to set up the favored Q Rating semifinal.  Safarova’s lefty game should work well on grass, and she has momentum from Paris.  Barring illness Serena should advance to the final. Bottom Half: Petra…

Queen’s Club 2015: Semifinal Predictions

Predicted Winners in BOLD [7] Gilles Simon (FRA) vs. Kevin Anderson (RSA) H2H – This match is a classic contrast of styles. Anderson has posted a lot of nice wins this week by blasting big serves.  Gilles Simon is a speedy counter-puncher who fights hard despite giving off a vibe that registers somewhere on the malaise…

French Open 2015: Serena Williams vs. Lucie Safarova Championship Prediction

Serena Williams vs. Lucie Sarafova Serena Williams last loss came against a lefty from the Czech Republic.  One would be foolish to think that both coaching teams have not looked at the Madrid match between Serena Williams and Petra Kvitova.  Safarova’s left-handed shot making makes this match quite a bit more insteresting than many might…

French Open 2015: Djokovic vs. Murray Prediction Part 2

Novak Djokovic leads Andy Murray 6-3, 6-3, 5-7, 3-3 How did we get here? We know Djokovic dominated the first two sets and seemed to be on track for a straight set win when Murray saved two break points.  The crowd eventually shifted, Murray stiffened his back, and Novak missed a few volleys and hit…
