What surprises me to some extent is great performance by the US players on grass. Eubanks wins Mallorca (on grass), Tommy Paul reaches Eastbourne final (on grass), Madison Keys wins the Eastbourne WTA title (guess the surface  Grin ) Is it some kind of a new trend and Wimbledon will be won by a US player this year?  Grin
Wimbledon Title winner from USA is no surprise, because a big list of players are into the tournament. For now we can expect Isner, Fritz, Shelton, Tiafoe, Korda reach the next round. Anyhow everything is a prediction and we'll know the reality only when the match is being played. Apart it is the tournament for which majority where training for a long. So, the hard competence can move the matches in any direction.

It is Eubanks to win the Mallorca Open final against Mannarino 6-1 6-4 in direct sets. Both the players were on the same scale of performance as well as had closer odds before the start of the match. This is the first time Eubanks have reached the finals and he have won it easily. With the winning power Eubanks is to play against Brazil player Monteiro in the Wimbledon.

Eubanks won pretty easy, and in straight sets, he was not favored by bookies, but brought me some money
grass is diffficult to play, and Mannarino is clay player, so I was surprised to see him finals, and having @2.3 on his opponent that showed good performance was a right choice

Cerundolo won as well, but I didn't have the courage to put him on my parlay

congrats to both of them

Good pick casperBGD to go with Eubanks instead of what myself and Joca97 did and
back the experience of Mannarino.

That was a massive win by Eubanks 6-1, 6-4 in just over 1 hour. This was his first
ATP final appearance and his first ATP title - well done to him.

He is back in action on Tuesday at Wimbledon against Monteiro - he will be full of confidence,
lets hope he isnt complacent and can keep his focus.

I absolutely agree that this final was unbelievably easy for Eubanks. I really do not think that people expected this type of performance. I at least wanted this to go to the third set. Obviously, that did not happen. I am actually kind of speechless after his performance in the final.

I think in the next tournament is going to be a lot confident. I absolutely agree with @casperBGD. I also think that he will be able to continue performing like this in the next tournament as well.

Cerundolo confirms himself in excellent form and he has just wins the Eastbourne tournament...
Today's match against Paul has been something balanced (except in the second set where the Argentinian lost 6-1). Paul's only distraction in the third set conceded the break point and practically "opened" the way for Cerundolo win...


But he still has some volatility in his game. At moments when he seems to be stable and strong out of a sudden he begins making simple, avoidable mistakes and giving away points. Often he can't switch again quickly enough and loses after leading, but this time he found a way back to stabilize. But he is still not a player who is strong enough to make it to the final rounds in the upcoming, more serious tournaments.

I'm going today with the seeded player as I would say Joca97 is too! he's not a bad
price @ 1.68 on Rollbit but Eubanks is close at 2.2

I will put something on Eubanks, IMO, they have similar chances to win, and Eubanks pays much better
@1.67 seems to be a bit low for Mannarino win, he is not a grass player, and I would not be surprised to see him losing this match

maybe Eubanks to win set, on similar odds is even better bet, but I would probably go with his win

Cerundolo reached final, although not being favorized by bookies, thinking to put him to win as well, but Paul seems as better pick, not sure

Well im going with Mannarino again to win the whole thing. He has experience like i said behind him and Eubanks just reached his first ever atp final. Plus currently odd dropped on Mannarino from 1.70 to 1.55 and this means that a lot of people are betting on him. Eubanks needs to hold his good serve if he loses it once he will lose the set for sure. Maybe over games should come in this match.
Eubanks leads the match 1-0 as the first set is won 6-1. The odds of Mannarino have increased @3.50, who have been thinking of betting on Mannarino and missed it can choose to bet now. Eubanks seems dominant from the very first point of the match.

Mostly when a big win happens like this for lower ranked players they lose a match in the next two rounds. He will be playing against Lopez that is really old but has too much experience on grass and his serve is really good so i think he might win this match against Hanfmann.
Well he has moved through the quarter final by beating Lopez and is now facing
Mannarino the 4th seed in the semi final.

Going back to his win against Tsitsipas, that was massive. Tsitsipas was by far the highest
ranked player there. It also asks questions of Tsitsipas, where is he going? personally
I think he needs a new coaching team, he needs to ditch the family input big time.

Back to the semi finals in Mallorca, Eubanks v Harris could be a close one, similarly
talented players there and the only seeded player left is Mannarino, I think they are
all of similar talent really, anything can happen.
Didnt espect such an easy win by Hanfmann but i guess Lopez is just too old. Lopez also with this loss finished his long career to bad he didnt win this tournament. Also Hanfmann will go against Mannarino that really good lately. I picked Mannarino to win so hopefully he wins it easily so that i dont have to stress a lot.

Well, the run of Hanfmann was stopped in the semifinals by Mannarino. Lopez definitely seemed to be an easy opponent for Hanfmann. As we saw that the match didn’t even go to the third set. But in the semifinals, Mannarino did not let this match go to the third set as well as he was able to close this match in the first two sets.

But I have to say in the semifinals. The first set was very competitive. After the first set, I thought this match was going to be really close. But Mannarino was able to make sure that he gets the win in the second set as well.


Like i said Mannarino has experience and crowned my bet with a win so pretty happy with the results. Always when low ranked players beat top players they lose in next two rounds its like not written rule . Mannarino might even win this tournament because not many good players are here because all of them are preparing for Wimbledon
For now the higher chance of winning is with Mannarino. Taking into account the performance in the previous tournaments Mannarino have got better results than Eubanks. Lets see whats gonna happen in the final. Eubanks have fough hard to reach the finals as the semifinals and quarter finals were really tough fighting matches. He'll push himself hard to win the title.

Good bet @Joca97 - Mannarino is a decent player and is seeded #4 in this tournament
but Eubanks is also a decent player, I have seen him a few times last year and looked like
he could have a great future...same can be said I suppose for a lot of the younger players

I'm going today with the seeded player as I would say Joca97 is too! he's not a bad
price @ 1.68 on Rollbit but Eubanks is close at 2.2

The match is over, and to my surprise, the match was lost by Stefanos Tsitsipas. It was a three-set match and honestly, I have to say the match was dominated by Hanfmann when we look at the first and the third set. Stefanos Tsitsipas played well in the second set. I thought in the third set it was going to be competitive. But Hanfmann took the win quite easily in the end. It was actually a little surprising result for me.

This was an important victory for Hanfmann. When you win against the winner from last year in round 2 it gives you a lot of confidence. Now he will play against Lopez from Spain in the quarter-final. He is ranked 634 in the ATP list and won against the Australian Thompsen (ATP 71). I have not seen any odds yet for the quarter-final. But I think Hanfmann is the favourite in this match.

Furthermore Djokovic will have a psychological advantage due to his past achievements but Alcaraz is young and he can try and tire out Djokovic and then try and capitalise on his errors.
If Alcaraz meets Djokovic the defending champion again, he should hope to be fit, in good shape and try to steadily progress through the sets and improve just as Djokovic does when he pays. Many tennis players are trying to get fit on time for the Wimbledon and there will be other players who can pull up a surprise brilliant performance, Daniil Medvedev, Casper Ruud, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Holger Rune and Frances Tiafoe are in this category.
The two names you mentioned are unlikely to be able to do much at Wimbledon even though they are fit, you should ignore Casper Ruud and Stefanos Tsitsipas in betting on the Grand Slam, they are not typical players who will look good on grass. Tsitsipas is trying to do better at Wimbledon later by playing in tournaments that are quite low atp 250 but he immediately lost in the early rounds even more at Wimbledon with own uniqueness, Casper Ruud is only a clay player that's why you have seen him in two French Open finals but have not been able to lift the trophy.
As for the others Medvedev and Tiafoe have not shown anything great so far at Wimbledon, I don't know about Jannick Sinner if this player is fit from the injury he got in the Halle Open tournament,  I think he will be able to go quite far, but it is not impossible there are surprises.

I still dont understand how Alcaraz got injured against Djokovic. It didnt look like they ran so much that he gets injured like that. But on grass i think Alcaraz dosent stand a chance against Djokovic. They can only meet in the final and i think Alcaraz wont even make it to the final to try and play against Djokovic. This tournament should be a walk in the park for Novak

I have seen Alcaraz playing a few sets and I was of the impression that he seriously wanted to test his limits in order to develop an idea of what's possible in Wimbledon and he did well. He gained confidence with this tournament win and still he knows that he hasn't yet faced the biggest challenge possible on grass, namely Djokovic.
Alcaraz has improved mentally and the next time he will face Djokovic, he will be a different player from the last time they played. Winning a trophy will greatly boost his confidence in his self and his strengths. Alcaraz is so young and already number one, that will make him one of the top players who will be predicted and expected to win the competition. A win in the Wimbledon will big for him and the career he hopes to get.

If it is true what Alcaraz said about the French Open, he was suffering from cramps from the third set till the end. If it is true, then it is not about becoming a different player, but about strengthening endurance unless those cramps were the result of panic and mental exhaustion at that moment. Cramps would be bad because that could become a recurring issue when he starts thinking about it again in a close match with Djokovic. A physical problem could then turn into a recurring mental problem. I hope that's not gonna happen as Alcaraz is the one player who could deliver the fights against Djokovic that we are all hoping for and that we were used to when Federer and Nadal competed with him.

@mv1986 I don’t think that he’ll be focusing on his cramps because it may or may not happen but if these two meet in Wimbledon then it’ll be one of most entertaining match of the year because these two have shown that they’ll stop at nothing until they have won the match. Furthermore Djokovic will have a psychological advantage due to his past achievements but Alcaraz is young and he can try and tire out Djokovic and then try and capitalise on his errors.

I didn't mean that Alcaraz will intentionally focus on his cramps. But when you suffered from an injury in the past, one risk is that you are too busy thinking about the injury to come back or developing some kind of anxiety disorder. This could be a huge mental burden on that level. The question "what if...". Imagine it would be again 1-1 between the two and Alcaraz had to fight like crazy to equalize the match, could it be that he starts thinking about what happened in Roland Garros? I hope that won't happen and Alcaraz can go the full distance with full power. That would give us all the match we want to see. But Djokovic knows all the tactics and how to also trigger mental weaknesses.
