So this is going to be my last post until next Tuesday with a few days planned away in Las Vegas and Dallas.
Suffice to say I won't have a lot of time to be accessing the internet in the coming days so good luck to all of you out there.
Angelique Kerber - 1.5 games v Madison Keys: This is a very important tournament for Angelique Kerber who has struggled to deal with being the Australian Open Champion. The German has at least put together some wins in Miami and the way she battled past Timea Babos in the Fourth Round will give Kerber the belief she can go all the way this week.
It is a big test for her against the big hitting Madison Keys who has played very well this week and she is yet to drop a set. When the serve is working, Keys can follow with some big forehands and that can take the racquet out of the hands of her opponents and is the reason so many have tipped the American to get to the top of the women's game.
She will need all of that to beat Kerber as Keys has struggled with her own consistency but looks set to return to the top 20 in the World Rankings. I can see this being a close match with Kerber frustrating Keys at times, while the latter will also be able to hit through the defences of the latter.
However I think ultimately it will come down to Kerber being able to negate the Keys weapons for just long enough to win the match and move through. She has won three of four against Keys although the last two matches have been very closely contested and I think Kerber has the confidence from a decent week to this point behind her to help her come through to the Semi Final.

This is my little corner on the net where I can offer my thoughts on a number of sports, while I also make picks from upcoming games. Regular picks are made from the football (soccer), tennis, NFL/College Football and NBA Basketball. I also devote a spot entirely to Manchester United, my first love in life, called 'United Corner' where I express my views on all things concerning this wonderful club. I hope you enjoy your time here.
