Today all the big favorites (Murray, Tsonga, Nadal, Cilic) have easily won 3-0.
The only surprise of today is Medvedev's defeat against the qualified Bemelmans (his victory was quoted at 5.50).

Murray already looks virtually at the quarter-finals because he has a easy draw: Fognini at the next round and in the eighth-finals Paire or Janowicz

I can see him taking Fognini easily but what lies ahead of him aint easy.
If he has to face either Federer or a healthy Nadal then that will be the end of him.
He had an easy win last year winning Wimbeldon with a finals with Wawrinka.
And we all know how easily Stan was dispatched by the young Medvedev. Undecided

Try, Nadal is playing so great, I really would like to see that duel in semi finale.
Medvedev is example how player can be inspired when playing against big champion and took advantage of his not so good performance, but like by the rule they usually loose next one, emotionally emptied.

Bad defeat for Del Potro against Gulbis which is currently 589 of the ranking atp (his best ranking is 13th). Gulbis was quoted at 6.50!
Djokovic then in the next round (who has lost only 5 games today) will find Gulbis.

Djokovic seems in good shape and will easily come in at least in the semifinals

Gulbis is a great grass court player . I went for +1.5 Gulbis and wow what a win , thanks to him . It will be very interesting to see how he plays against Djokovic but for sure Delpo v Djoker would have been much cooler.

I have finally seen Djokovic in great shape and very focused. I think he will easily win 3-0 against Gulbis, instead against Del Potro would be a more balanced match because Del Potro paradoxically plays better against strong players.
I'm almost certain that Djokovic will easily be in the semifinals without losing 1 set

Djokovic looked great today in all segments of game. I knew that Gulbis could make surprise but I excepted a bit more from Delpo. However, Gulbis played really good during all the match and deserve to win. I think that he is going to be good test for Novak.

Very interesting match going on right now , Nishikori and Bautista both are giving their everything

I think this will head to 5 or atleast 4 sets and hence went for over 36.5 pre-live . I am rooting for Nishikori to win the match , it will be interesting if he takes the second set.

It is a good match.
I remember Agut taking on Raonic during the Rolland Garros and that lasted for a very long time.
The longest match I remember ever being played at the French Open.
So we all know that Roberto Bastistua-Agut can lay it out on the court if he needs too.
Nishikori on the other hand can not last too long when matches go on for over 5 sets.
He has taken himself out for medical time outs several times in the matches he has played very recently so he is more than likely to not win this match up with the stubborn Agut.

ATP World number one Andy Murray is currently battling his number 29 counterpart Fongini in their third set which Murray is currently winning by 5-1. Murray won the first set by 5-2, Fongini the second set by 6-4.

Fognini got problem with injury. To bad, this was great match until that moment. I can see that he is moving better but think that Murray will finish the job here.
I have to mention that Cilic played great today, he is very dangerous on grass. By my opinion he is favorite in match against Bautista in fourth round of tournament

Guys.. Who do you think will win the Wimbledon tennis tournament for men?
I stick with Novak Djokovic, but he'll still need to be in good form in this tournament..

40% Federer .
35% Nadal .
15% Djokovic .
10% Murray .

Seeing the draw Murray, Nadal and Djokovic can easily get into the semifinals.
Federer is the big favorite but has a complicated draw: M.Zverev next round, then Dimitrov, and quarter-finals 1 between Raonic and A.Zverev.
Federer will come to me in the semi-finals but could waste so much energy.
Djokovic, after a bad first part of the season, can incredibly win this Wimbledon!

I saw the last Nadal matches and he is amazing. So clever, strong and efficient. He will be in the final.

How disappointed for Tsonga, he lost his service game today and lost the match. Match was Interrupted yesterday and was continued today but Querry played great that one game and finished the job. Crazy scenario, we can not see this very often.Match against Djokovic and Gulbis is starting right now. Lets see is Djoko ready for high achievement...

This Tsonga game was amusing for how long it went on yesterday and how it just took one break game to end it, Tsonga should be disappointed (and probably is) for getting broken after a full day of rest, and how rare it is for the first game in a match (and this was one, considering it was a full day rest) to end in a break in ATP men tennis...
Anyway, just now Monfils lost the final set and the game ended 3-2, A big upset as he was the favorite to win the match.

There are going to be 2 matches in the next 3 hours one is CARUSO VS VIKTOR which caruso will win as his past performance has also been really good and victor has a rough play in Recanati. The second match is going to be interesting as it is between Vanni and basic. I'll be betting 200$ on vanni even though the odds are slightly higher I'm sure Vanni will win

Djokovic won in straight sets against Gulbis. Only the last set was close, going into a tie braker.
Djoko as usual got into an argument with the umpire, but that seems to have increased his focus.

It was a great first set as well , Gulbis took the break but Djokovic did well to break back and take the set . Gulbis is a talented grass court player so winning against him in straight will certainly boost Djokers confidence.

the living tennis legend again has shown his strength at the age of 35, he has played beautifully against Zverev. he played backhand and forehand beautifully, especially at the fist set of this game, a fantastic return game made him more confident to win this game. hopefully, he will continue this performance till the winning of this Wimbledon

Federer is already old for it. His win over Mischa Zverev was not too easy.
Djokovic is the best bet for Wimbledon. Nadal comes the second.

Here are the eighths-finals at Wimbledon:

A. Murray (Gbr) vs B. Paire (Fra)
S. Querrey (Usa) vs K. Anderson (Rsa)

R. Nadal (Esp) vs G. Muller (Lux)
R. Bautista (Esp) vs M. Cilic (Cro)

M. Raonic (Can) vs A. Zverev (Ger)
R. Federer (Svi) vs G. Dimitrov (Bul)

D. Thiem (Aut) vs T. Berdych (Cze)
A. Mannarino (Fra) vs N. Djokovic (Srb)

The most interesting and balanced matches are those between A.Zverev vs Raonic and Thiem vs Berdych. The fab4 (Murray, Federer, Nadal and Murray) should easily win their matches.

In the first week Federer, Djokovic, Nadal, A. Zverev, Cilic and Dimitrov did not even lose 1 set

Quote from: cicciobtc on July 09, 2017, 02:26:30 PM

I just wanna add that even Querry v Anderson is balanced and that it will not be easy for Federer . Dimitrov is a very good player who plays similar to Federer so it wont be easy at all . Apart from that everyone must go forward .
