Alexandr Dolgopolov v Stanislas Wawrinka: I am going to have a small interest in Alexandr Dolgopolov to come through this Third Round match, although he is one of the most inconsistent players in the top Rankings and is always susceptible to throwing in an awful performance.
However, Dolgopolov has all the tools to cause Stanislas Wawrinka problems in this one and I was surprised that he was set as the underdog in the match.
I'll hope the Ukrainian's variations in the groundstrokes cause Wawrinka enough problems, although this has the makings of a five setter.
Petra Kvitova - 5.5 games v Marion Bartoli: Petra Kvitova was my pick to come through the top half of the section in the Women's draw and she has the chance to move through to the Quarter Finals and I am expecting her to do so in style.
Kvitova has been playing very well throughout the Summer on the North American hard courts and she destroyed Marion Bartoli in Montreal for the loss of just 2 games.
While I expect Bartoli to have more fight in this one, Kvitova is the one with the heavier groundstrokes and I think she will come through 6-2, 6-4
