Will a member of the #NextGen such as Kyrgios and Thiem surprise us all and defeat the most experienced players? What’s your bet? Vote and comment below!
Who will win Wimbledon 2016?
We have shortlisted the favorite candidates to win the Champioships, Wimbledon, this year:
- Novak Djokovic. He is the current Wimbledon champion, and the first man since Rod Laver to hold the four Grand Slam titles at the same time. He has been the best tennis player during the last few years. As of today, Nole is the main favorite, way over any other player.
- Andy Murray. The world number two has lost the last two Grand Slam finals against Djokovic in Australia and France. The Scottish player excels on grass and has just won a record fifth title at Queens one week before Wimbledon. He has already beaten Djokovic at Wimbledon. In 2013, he won the Championships.
- Roger Federer. The 10 times finalist and 7 times Wimbledon champion has been injured several times this year and had to skip the French Open to recover for Wimbledon. His grass season was not as good as he is used to, with two losses in semifinals in Stuttgart and Halle against young talented players such as Thiem and Zverev. However, Federer reached the finals in the last two editions and he is the best player ever on grass.
- Stanislas Wawrinka. Grass is not his best surface, but the Swiss player is unpredictable and one of the few to be able to win against Djokovic even when the Serb is at his best. He demonstrated it last year at the French Open, and before that at the Australian Open two years ago.
- Milos Raonic. The Canadian has improved a lot, and his strong serve can be very effective on grass. He recently reached the finals at Queens.
- Dominic Thiem. The Austrian player has won at least one title on every surface this year, winning his first grass tournament a few days ago at Stuttgart (defeating Federer in the semifinals). He his young, talented, but has already played more matches this year than any other player on the ATP tour.
- Nick Kyrgios. The Australian is one of the most promising player of the #NextGen, he group of young tennis players who want to be next ATP number one. His strong serve makes him a very effective player on grass.
Some other players (young ones such as Zverev or older ones such as Gasquet or Tsonga) could also have more success than predicted.

HOW KRAZY HACKER MIGHTY KOLAKOV YURI RECOVERED MY MONEY AND SAVED MY LIFE
Hi Guys. I'm Albert Arnold . I give all thanks to Mighty Yuri for his expertise in cryptocurrency recovery needs. At first i had my doubt about him because not everything online is trustworthy Mighty Yuri assured me that i would get my money back within 4 hours. I mean all the money that was taken from me through fraudulent bitcoin investments and money that was stolen from my wallets, I had lost all hope and trust of ever getting my money back, I was at the lowest point in my life, i was depressed and homeless for 2 months but just like magic i came across Mighty Yuri (HACKER Yuri). I'm sincerely appreciative of his assistance and professionalism in making sure I got my money back. I complained to him about being a victim of a phony cryptocurrency and FX investor after reading their post, and within 4 hours, all of the money that had been taken from me using Bitcoins and USDT had been returned. To anyone who might have gone through something similar, I strongly recommend his service. Mighty Yuri can be contacted via Email: mightyyuri(@)consultant(.)com WhatsAp: +1 (828 630 8408).
