Isner - Otte

The bet that there will be 3 sets in this match. The chances for me are 50/50 here, Cerundolo has a higher racquet but not in the best form. It is a very common case when playing against non-elite tennis players, they don't show their best tennis. I only hope that Cisco won't put up too much of a fight so that Munar can easily pass to the next round. Speaking of Munar, his recent months have been pretty good, he plays solid tennis and I wouldn't say that he has had any bad losses going back to the French Open. I think 3 sets is a realistic possibility here.

Well, here's Popyrinas, a bright favorite, playing against the 638th ranked player who is only 18 years old. But in Canada, all opponents are dangerous, and with Popyrinas' game this summer, it wouldn't be surprising if he meets with a failure in defending his title. Arsenault played his career match in the first round against Royer, and of course Popyrinas is a player of a different level, but as I said, I believe we can expect a tough match. Australia has lost 7 out of 9 matches this summer, so confidence is probably not at its highest right now, which should allow a young opponent to put up a good fight.
