Del Potro dissapointed me strongly yesterday and today I didn't find strenght to analize all matches. I chose one from ladies draw and I hope there will be no surprizes. Kaia Kanepi with her
game style and look for me is a small version of Dinara Safina. Strong hits, powerful groundstrokes, but still she needs to work on stability of her game which from time to time looks really
good. On hard she should feel good, becouse she put a lot of power in her hits and serve and also at Beijing 2008 event she presented nice game winning with Razzano and Pannetta without
problems and lost to Na Li after 3 sets. Kaia when she have a good day is a very hard opponent but still she poses problems with holding her game on high level for whole match. She reached this
year quarterfinals of French Open, so I hope she will fight also in this Grand Slam. Lately she was losing only to well-classed players like Williams, Kuznietsova or Moresmo after three sets. I
think Estinian will be a very hard challange for Nicolescu who don't poses such powerful hit and her serve is much more easier to return.She didn't passed second round of any tour for a while
and in this season she didn't show anything special. Kanepi in my opinion is much more dangerous player but she need to stay focus to win this match without problems. We'll see...
Pick: Kanepi to win with -3.5 games hadicap at 2.05 with PinnacleSports: 6/10
PICK WON
+6.3
