Who thinks Coco will win? 

I think she'll close 2ga out here with another 6-3 set.

let’s roll!!!!!! On it!!

@skillahmang

 Well technically I almost called it since I predicted 6-3 and it ended 6-4. She broke 2ga 3 times in the second though so likely would've been 6-3 or 6-1 if Coco didn't hit 9 doubles in the set. To Gauff's credit, she was obviously frustrated when the double faults led to being broken twice in the second set but she didn't let the frustration linger or allow Swiatek to gain any momentum. She broke right back both times, once to love and once to 15.

For the match 2ga had 15 winners and 47 unforced errors.  19 game match so she basically averaged 2.5 UE per game. 

After she came back to win from down a set and a double break against Barb I wonder if the books got flooded with 2ga money after she fell behind.

I don't typically post men's predictions as I don't follow as much as I do women's

Ok thanks so much!!! 

Tank is on Agut. 

Isn’t tank an auto fade? New to the forum but looking back seems to be

Yes. Everyone's favorite poster. 

Dang, Chan serving down 0-40 facing quadruple break point and ChaKuder win 8 straight points to get the hold then the break. Nice going into the tiebreak with the momentum.

 Some people definitely play the fade and it seems to be profitable. I joke about it sometimes but fading a particular person's predictions is typically not a solid strategy IMO. 

Tailing someone who makes good picks can be solid but if you're instead simply fading someone you're putting a lot of confidence in that person being bad enough to actually make it profitable, which would actually take a lot of skill (or negative skill?) to be that bad.

Makes sense thanks for the honest and professional opinion. Great work on Kudermatova doubles match!!! Winner!!!

Not into fading anyone but if you tail him, you will be living in a tent asking for change on the side of the road.

Autofade made me money today!

@Uman

 Congrats and don't blame ya for following the system. I haven't done the math but based on what I've seen it seems like the fade hits at a 70%+ clip. Or maybe it's just the losses get echoed more. Someone should do a W/L analysis along with unit sizes.

But what about randomly dropping in to comfort @wgomel21 when he was having a bad day? 

 Didn't see that one coming.

@bringit

 Comfort?  You actually understood his post?
