  • My Roland Garros 2024 vague predictions

    From Kalevi Kolttonen@21:1/5 to All on Tue May 14 19:06:45 2024
    Hello!

    I usually do not make any predictions, but I
    have decided to make an exception now.

    The French Open aka Roland Garros 2024 will
    be here pretty soon. The champion will be one
    of the following, presented here in ATP live
    ranking order but signifying no favourites
    among this group:

    Novak Djokovic
    Jannik Sinner
    Carlos Alcaraz
    Alexander Zverev
    Casper Ruud
    Stefanos Tsitsipas

    The tennis history has proven that Rafael
    Nadal's achievements on clay are god-like,
    but as of now, I am almost 100% certain
    that he cannot win RG 2024.

    Holger Rune will not win either.

    I think Tsitsipas will be very strong, prob win it if Carlos is impeded
    in any way.

    Two of Tsi's nemeses are hobbling. Sinner and Alcatraz. Djok is hit by
    moving water, and Rune isn't doing that well either. Tsi does have his
    way paved for him. I still won't put a penny on him.

    He appears too good to never win a slam. He's much more focussed now he
    got rid of Badosa, and she's playing better too. If I had to pick a
    player to win FO today, given all the uncertainty surrounding the big
    guys, I'd pick Stefanos. If Carlos has no injury he'll probably walk it in.

    It's time for Zverev to win his first slam in the FO.


    Yes he's also a big chance if he plays his best, looks good atm.
