Wimbledon Predictions/Thoughts

28/6/2017

1 Comment

 
After watching Federer dismantle Zverev in the final at Halle on Sunday 6/1 6/2 I can see Fed as the clear favourite for Wimbledon this year. He was/is simply awesome in almost every department and has even added a variety of drop shots for the grass. This was a shot he never used to believe in but at times he made Zverev look fairly ordinary (which he isn't!). This could be the new strategy that other top players might follow i.e. miss out a few months of tournaments and then come in fresh and blow everyone away?    Apart from Murray and Nadal I can't see any of the others troubling Roger. Kyrgios is dangerous but doesn't look to be in great form after a bereavement in the family. Novak is at Eastbourne trying to find himself as much as his tennis and Agassi will at least help to console him when he loses! Thiem still can't volley and has big swings for grass courts so might struggle and Raonic doesn't seem to be in great shape either. Maybe Marcus Willis will battle through qualifying and become the dark horse? Doubt it but good luck to him as he certainly added to last year's event!
I should mention Feliciano Lopez who did so well to finally win Queens but Wimbledon's courts are a bit slower so his serve might come back too often for his liking? And as much as I like Cilic he is one of the mad ball bouncers before serving which is just too dull!
I'd be delighted if Murray gets a hat trick but equally pleased if Federer goes clear of the Sampras record of 7 titles. 
  In the women's draw it will be interesting to see how Ostapenko does after her fantastic win at the French which gave the ladies game a much needed boost. Great to see Kvitova back again who could easily win the title again if she has fully recovered, but I would also put Venus Williams down as a great outside bet!
Konta looks to have found a bit of grass court form reaching the final at Nottingham and Heather Watson beat Cibulkova recently and loves the grass so might be an opportunity for her to get her career back on track?

Who would have ever predicted how 2017 transpired. With Djoker Murray and Stan returning it's gonna be a good 2018
