  • Decided to simulate these using the UTS ‘Hypothetical Matchup’ feature that allows for these exact conditions as variables

    Using ‘Peak ELO Rating’ for Prime Nishikori provides the date August 15th 2016 as the result

    1. Fritz - 71.2% chance of Nishikori win

    2. Hurkacz - 69.0% (nice) chance of Nishikori win

    3. Rune - 73.4% chance of Nishikori win

    4. Zverev - 62.8% chance of Nishikori win

    5. Tsitsipas - 68.6% chance of Nishikori win

    6. Rublev - 65.3% chance of Nishikori win

    7. Sinner - 47.4% chance of Nishikori win

    8. Medvedev - 49.9% chance of Nishikori win

    9. Alcaraz - 50.7% chance of Nishikori win

    10. Djokovic - 26.9% chance of Nishikori win



  • I want to add that even this draw seems perfect lol. I would’ve favoured Sinner to make it out of the round robin, but he’s been drawn into a group where he has a losing record against each player, so it’ll be quite intriguing to see how he handles those hurdles.

    Meanwhile, on the other side, we get to see Alcaraz vs Rublev for the first time, and everyone certainly wants to see Alcaraz vs Medvedev again after the USO. Zverev is obviously a huge x-factor too.

    Any predictions?
