My Prediction
Paul in 3 setsOh, good old tennis. It's a game of love and...well, mostly love, but in this particular matchup, it seems like one player might not be feeling quite so cherished. We're looking at a piece of work: Tommy "Cash" Paul against Sebastian "The Underdog" Ofner.
Cash Paul has been stirring up quite the rumpus at Wimbledon. His 13th seed shows he's no slouch, and he appears to be the preferable choice. Just peep at his track record--a delightful showing against Monday, Popyrin, and Khachanov (a 5 set thriller, mind you) proves that he's got a handle on his racket, despite a few bumps along the way.
On the other side of the net, we have The Underdog Ofner. He's like a dog chasing a mail truck: you have to admire his tenacity, but you know it's probably not going to end well. Ofner's efforts are commendable, but his recent record gives us a bit of pause--a sneaky win against Međedović (who he barely outlasted in a single set, by the by) and Navone, losses against Rublev and Basavareddy. It's more up and down than a country barn dance. And let's not forget the past meetings with Paul that did not end with Ofner sprinkling the court with victory kisses.
Now, don't quote me on this, but the good money goes on the steady hand. So, if I were the betting man--which I most certainly am not, except on carrot cake baking contests--here's what I'll predict:
