i feel about 90% confident in predicting djokovic over cilic in 4 sets or fewer

after that, predicting gets significantly harder for me:

i feel about 65% confident in predicting murray over dimitrov in 5 sets
i feel about 60% confident in predicting federer over wawrinka in 4 sets
i feel about 50% confident in predicting raonic over kyrgios in 5 sets

So happy I'm off for the rest of the week. Finally get to relax at home in the AC and enjoy some tennis. I'll probably set my alarm for 845 or 9 AM tmr because I don't care to see any of those ladies matches just in time for the men qf

My 6 barreled PVR has been getting a workout lately between tennis and WC soccer. Sadly work has to be done so I maintain a full media blackout until happy hour.....


I like Federer, Serby, Raonic and Dimitrov to win.

Didn't make predictions, but my thoughts in genereal on the QFs yesterday:



Wow. Every match is interesting tomorrow.

Including both Ladies' matches.

I've mentioned Halep a few times, she has been good at every major this year.

Lisicki has been good on grass for several years too, making last year's finals.

Bouchard has made the SFs of both majors this year.

Kerber is a solid 2nd tier player, and she did beat Sharapova. Kerber won't be good at every major, but she'll make the 2nd week every few ones. Actually, since the 2011 USO, she's made the 4th round or better in all but 2 majors, including a few SFs.

For the Men, I think Murray-Dmitrov might be the easiest, I'm just not buying into Dmitrov yet.

Either player can win between FED and Wawrinka. Wawrinka has proven he can beat the top players, in the past year or so.

Raonic-Krygios should be great serving. I think I like Krygios more, but it wouldn't surprise me to see this go 4-5 sets, it's a pick-em.

didn't expect djokovic to struggle so much against cilic, but he took it in 5 instead of 4

i figured dimitrov would play murray tough, and i even thought about picking dimitrov...but i thought at worst for murray it would go to 5 sets. a straight sets whipping wasn't what i was thinking at all.

fed's about to take out waws in 4.

and it looks like raonic/kyrgios is going to take awhile. we'll see.

I like how you put the confidence percentage too. It gives a clearer picture of how certain you are for each one.
