Tennis Picks 2018 (July 16th)

And just like that the World Cup and Wimbledon come to an end on the same day and sports fans must be feeling the void.

However the Tennis Tour doesn't stop until November and that means on Monday five new tournaments get underway across Europe and North America.

Clay events in Bastad and Umag are available for the ATP players, while there are a couple of clay court events in Bucharest and Gstaad for the WTA players. We also have the official end of the grass court season in Newport.

The next couple of weeks are a good time for the clay court players out there, but for many others the start of the hard court season is fast approaching as the build towards the final Grand Slam of the season at the US Open gets going. At the end of July we will have events in California, Atlanta and Washington before we get into the two back to back Masters events in Canada and Cincinnati.

The men's US Open looks like it will be a lot of fun now Novak Djokovic has joined Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, the defending Champion, as a Slam holder in 2018. And the women's tournament doesn't look any less exciting although I imagine Serena Williams will be going in as the favourite at Flushing Meadows.


Wimbledon wasn't a great tournament for the Tennis Picks, but adding more positive numbers to the season can't be complained about and I am now hoping to keep the momentum going.

This week may be a little more difficult to find consistent picks with the majority of the big names out of action, but on this Monday I do have a couple of Tennis Picks.

However I haven't had the time to write out a full analysis of the matches and instead you can read them in the 'MY PICKS' section.
