Winston-Salem Open: Semi Finals

Feature Previews

Roberto Bautista-Agut v Jan-Lennard StruffThe top seed delivered yesterday in a straight sets win over Fritz. In doing so he was able to maintain an incredible win rate behind his second serve. He won 80% of 2nd serve points against the young American and is now 78% for the tournament in that category. The Spaniard made very light work of Struff in Barcelona earlier this year and with Struff already having played some tough matches The Wolf is expecting him to be completely spent. He has already played 6 tiebreakers this week and that will have taken it out of him.
Best Bet: Sets Bautista-Agut 2-0 ($1.75)

Kyle Edmund v Damir DzumhurFew would have expected either of the pair to make it this far but full credit to them. Edmund came from a set down to defeat Steve Johnson and is set to take winning form with him to the US Open. He was a breakout at least year’s Open where he made it to the 4th round following wins over Gasquet and Isner before losing to Djokovic. With a much skinnier field this year The Wolf says he is a genuine dark horse to make the quarters. Dzumhur is playing some clean tennis and he did beat Edmund in 5 sets at the Australian Open but The Wolf cannot look past Edmund’s ability to hold serve.
Best Bet: Edmund WIN ($1.53)
