Upset Corner - Wimbledon 2018 Edition

[DarthFed]

I give Koleslaw a 40% chance vs KA

Never mind, he is down a set and serving 0-30 5-5 in the 2nd. I meant a 10% chance

Unbelievable upset by Pella.

Cough drop sent home.

a real shame for tall Marin

 

[GameSetAndMath]

I think the delay will hurt Taylor. Sascha has time to think about it, get coaching and devise a plan

Good call KSK

Monfils took out Sam, one more seed gone.

McDonald upsets Cilic Slayer.

McDonald upsets Cilic Slayer.

I told you to watch out for this young guy, he is very promising

I told you to watch out for this young guy, he is very promising

I have not seen much of him yet. This current win might be attributable to an all too familiar slack off by a player coming off from the high of a big upset. Also, while he has three wins, none of them is against a quality player.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

So, we had two upsets today, one seed and one non-seed.

1. Seed # 11 S. Querry ousted by La Monf.

Querry has beaten Novak and Murray at Wimbledon and reached QF and SF the last couple of years and so this is a big scalp.

2. Cilic Slayer G. Pella sent home by American McDonald.

It is hard to follow up after an emotional high of a big upset. Moreover, he played three days consecutively.

# of seeds strewn so far is 17.

De Minaur to take out dull tomorrow. Book it.

 

[GameSetAndMath]

I project no upsets for Day 6.

I expect all of the following four matches to be interesting though, one way or another.

1. Rafa vs. Fearless Teenager
2. Novak vs. British #1
3. Bad Boy vs. Samurai
4. Khachanov vs. Tiafoe

I did extensive research on match #1 before making my decision. I will post some of my findings in the regular thread after an hour or so.

 

[Moxie]

I got $ on Tiafoe in #4.

 

[isabelle]

I predict Edmund takes out fakervic.

And going with De Minaur for the upset to save tennis and humanity.

De Minaur seems to be clueless....another bad prediction from your part

One upset in the books. Vesely takes out Fignini

 

[herios]

Second biggest upset of the event, Zverev taken out by Ernie, a qualifier here

 

[Murat Baslamisli]

Second biggest upset of the event, Zverev taken out by Ernie, a qualifier here

Unacceptable.

 

[herios]

One more. Nishi eliminates the Bad boy.

 

[Federberg]

One more. Nishi eliminates the Bad boy.

perhaps in terms of ranking, but not in reality. Nishi is who I would have put money on

 

[Carol]

I'm so tired and bored about some people predictions........

The bookies put more on Nick than on Nidhi too. Obviously they were clueless

 

[herios]

Unacceptable.

He kinda sucks in slams
