Rio Olympic Tennis: August 6 Women’s Singles Predictions
Predicted Winners in BOLD First, a big thanks to the ATP’s website for listing the men’s schedule. I had to go to the olympic site to get a listing of women’s olympic matches. The WTA should list the schedule too. The women’s slate for August 6th features a lot of good matches so I’ll jump…
Wimbledon 2016: Day 1 Ladies’ Predictions
Predicted Winners in BOLD [2] Garbine Muguruza (ESP) vs Camila Giorgi (ITA) – Post-slam letdowns can happen. Muguruza also has a lot of points to defend. A loss here would surprise but not shock me. Still, she should win. [8]Venus Williams (USA) vs Donna Vekic (CRO) – Venus generally plays better at Wimbledon than anywhere…
French Open 2016: May 28th Women’s Predictions
Predicted Winners in Bold Pauline Parmentier (FRA) vs. Timea Bacsinszky (SUI) [8] – 8th seeds are supposed to beat unseeded players right? Still this seems like a 50-50 match. Serena Williams (USA) [1] vs. Kristina Mladenovic (FRA) [26] – This should be a fun match and a good test for Serena. If Serena isn’t hampered by too many errors…

[8] Timea Bacsinszky (SUI) vs Eugenie Bouchard (CAN) – Bouchard is having a nice event to this point, but this is a real test. If she passes it, maybe…

Predicted Winners in BOLD For Predictions on Match Completions See This Earlier Post Bojana Jovanovski (SRB) vs. Agnieszka Radwanska (POL) [2] – Aga should win, but she is not facing an unknown. Alize Cornet (FRA) vs. Kirsten Flipkens (BEL) – Should be a fun match, but I think Cornet is more dangerous. Anna Karolina Schmiedlova (SVK) vs. Garbine Muguruza (ESP) [4]…
Rome 2016: May 11th WTA Predictions
Predicted Winners in BOLD [7] Roberta Vinci (ITA) vs. Johanna Konta (GBR) – This should be a close match. [5] Petra Kvitova (CZE) vs. Madison Keys (USA) – Petra is so hard to predict. I have no idea as Keys could beat her, but on clay I like Petra a little more. [3] Garbiñe Muguruza (ESP) vs….
Madrid 2016: May 2nd WTA Predictions
Predicted Winners in BOLD [5] Petra Kvitova (CZE) vs. [Q] Elena Vesnina (RUS) – I would not be shocked to see an upset here. Nothing Petra does surprises me these days. She may dust the field or be bested by an unknown. Vesnina is a solid player and could very well send the defending champion…
Miami Open 2016: March 26th WTA and ATP Predictions
Predicted Winners in BOLD [6] Kei Nishikori (JPN) vs. [Q] Pierre-Hugues Herbert (FRA) H2H – Kei is always interesting in early rounds as he can maul people or he can be pushed when least expected.
