Masters Canada 2016: July 25th ATP Predictions
Predicted Winners in BOLD Borna Coric (CRO) vs. Ivan Dodig (CRO) H2H – This could be a great match. I think Coric wins, but Dodig should not be underestimated.

Washington, DC 2016: July 21st ATP Predictions
Predicted Winners in BOLD (Q) Ryan Harrison VS (5) Steve Johnson – This is a big match for both men. Johnson won his first title right and had a decent Wimbledon.
