But today's opponent is very tricky - a competent grass courter with more experience (altough a real shite at grand slams). Anyway, my opinion is that the Russian should be a 1.7-1.8 favourite in this game. If the match goes long in time Grigor will probably find it hard to handle the pressure. OK, I'm not saying he's without chances, but for me Kunitsyn looks the pick in this match.
Still, I'll be all for Dimitrov and I'll be extremely happy if I lose this small bet...
Kunitsyn @2.36 - 2 pts
Pity, Dimitrov retired injured after winning the 1st set...
