Tennis Picks 9th June 2011

Another really quick post here with my picks for the upcoming days play at Queens Club, London.


Marin Cilic - 3.5 games vs Thomaz Bellucci: Marin Cilic definitely has the tools to be a success on this surface and is perhaps being underestimated to win this match with a bit to spare. The serve was beginning to work much better in the latter stages of his win over Clement in the last Round, and Cilic also has a decent grass court pedigree.

Thomaz Bellucci struggled to beat Ilhan in the last Round, being forced to go the distance, and his lack of grass court experience seems to have hurt him. Bellucci was also fortunate to get past Gregor Dimitrov in the 1st Round and I think he struggles to contain Cilic here.


Sam Querrey - 4.5 games vs James Ward: The defending Champion against a British Wild Card entry looks like a mismatch to me but the bookmakers dont seem to think so. Sam Querrey has shown how difficult it is to contain his serve on grass and I really think he wins in straight sets.

James Ward was impressive in beating Stanislas Wawrinka in the last Round, but this is an altogether different test. The win over Wawrinka was the best success Ward has had in his career, but I struggle to believe he can pull a surprise in this match.

A break in each set could be enough to cover the spread.


MY PICKS: Marin Cilic - 3.5 games @ 2.05 Pinnacle (2 Units)
Sam Querrey - 4.5 games @ 2.25 Paddy Power (2 Units)


WEEKLY UPDATE: + 8.29 Units (+ 0 Units yesterday)
