Tennis ATP Madrid Picks
Today’s Picks: (ATP Madrid)
Alcaraz ML vs. Djokovic (-120) 3pm GMT
On paper, and especially to someone who doesn’t follow tennis, this pick might seem strange, given that Djokovic is ranked first in the world. But if you have been following Wonder Boy Alcaraz lately, you would see that he is truly remarkable and red fucking hot right now. He just smoked the GOAT Rafael Nadal. Yes, Nadal beat him in the second set, but that was only because he was dealing with a rolled ankle. The set before and after that he literally annihilated him.
Djokovic is playing well and starting to overcome his long hiatus rust, but he is yet to play someone as skilled as Alcaraz since his return. The closest breed of talent he has played was Rublev and Rublev defeated him. I find Alcaraz to be way better than Rublev right now, ESPECIALLY on clay. Yes, Novak looked good against Hurkacz, but that is because Hurkacz was playing defensive as fuck, trying to out-rally Novak. This is not the style of play that you want to have against Novak Djokovic. If it’s a rally battle, he will beat your ass, but this is NOT how Carlito plays. Carlito is a fucking aggressive ass spider monkey on the court. He wants to kill you on every single point. He chases every ball, hugs every line, and has so many tricks up his sleeve that you’d think he’s a 20 year veteran.
Oh, and Alcaraz is playing at home in Spain!!! That crowd is going to be absolutely electric. Carlito is their young prodigy, their future GOAT. I am riding with the hottest player in the world right now, even when he happens to be playing the highest ranked player in the world right now.
Stefanos Tsitsipas To Win 2-0 (+128) vs Alexander Zverev, 8pm GMT
In a rematch of the Monte-Carlo Masters semi final, second seed Alexander Zverev will face fourth seed Stefanos Tsitsipas in the second semi-final of the ATP Madrid Open. Although Zverev been ranked 2nd we see Tsitsipas been his hardest match of this tournament by far and with the form on his side a 4th seed win.
