The Challenger tournament in the USA. These tennis players played a couple of weeks ago, and in a very tough battle, the Japanese won. The tournament was also an ITF level event in the USA, and the Japanese won that as well. Now they meet again for the second time, and I don't believe it will be possible for the 34-year-old veteran to win against the younger player playing at home. Especially since this will already be the fourth match for the Japanese, as he also played in the qualifiers, while the American will only be playing his second.

Siniakova Katerina is showing signs of recovery in the grass season, with a decent win in the first round against Zheng and two good matches against Krueger and Kudermetova. She also put up a good fight against Rybakinai. As for Osaka, there is nothing particularly notable, as she had a poor performance in the first set against Samsonova and lost to the inconsistent Danilovic. She did manage to win against Navarro in two sets, but overall, her game seems average. She has been quite inconsistent lately, with a couple of unfinished matches at the beginning of the season due to injury.

The Faroese League

The Faroese team Klaksvik is dominating the local championship and has 43 points in 15 matches, which is 14 more than the closest competitor. The leaders have not lost a single away game and are the favorites in every match, with only 3 goals conceded on the road, making them a strong team in this league. They will be playing against the average team Vikingur, whom they have already beaten 2-0 at home, but now have a win on the road as well, with such a good coefficient it is worth watching how well the Faroese leaders are playing. Yesterday, the coefficient was 1.8.

Even though Rinderknech played 5 sets, but after Peru against Zverev, I think the Frenchman will be very well disposed and prepared to continue playing excellently. Good serving and decent play from the backline looks very good from the French side, and when playing against a clay court specialist it should be easy enough to handle. I think the advantage can be taken here, but due to the long final clash and Peru looking suitable, Garin manages to win win on grass, and this year has already won 4 matches at Wimbledon, but I think he will fall against the Frenchman who looks very good.

The choice for the winner of the third quarter. The weakest quarter without any doubt because there is no Djokovic, Alcaraz or Sinner. I choose Fritz, an outstanding player who had a great season and played on grass, winning 2 out of 3 tournaments, even though he didn't demonstrate his best game at Eastbourne. His main opponents are Zverev and Medvedev. I won't say anything new about Zverev, he is a player with a weak mentality and has generally shown the worst results in Grand Slams, never reaching the 4th round. And Fritz himself has beaten him before, including at last year's Wimbledon and this year's Stuttgart Final on grass.

Medvedev is not in his best form this year, even though he played fairly well on grass at Halle, but was easily handled by Bublik. Also, one solid tournament is not enough to convince me. Other candidates like Berrettini, who hasn't played in any tournament in the past month and a half, will definitely fall early, and Khachanov doesn't convince me either.

The surface is favorable for Fritz, a rising player, although there is always a risk with him at Grand Slams because he has had some failures in the past. However, he also has a potential to reach the final. Personally, I see him as the favorite in this quarter.

The completely irrational coefficient is given here for Lorenzo to win Wimbledon. It is not at all convincing that Musetti has the same chances to win Wimbledon as Hurkacz, Tommy Paul or Rublev. Musetti is a top-tier tennis player who has started his elite level on grass. Last year, he reached the semifinals of Wimbledon and lost to Nole, while being ranked 25-30 at the time. This year, Musetti is on a completely different level and knowing his abilities on grass, this is complete disrespect and I hope the bookmakers will regret this coefficient. As for injuries and other factors, it is not worth putting too much thought into, but putting ten or twenty euros may be worth it, I am not sure if better odds can be found.
