Australian Open Video Breakdown

[samsncharge99]

Breaking down the brackets and giving some insight and some futures picks for the tournament. Follow along on my daily thread for daily picks.

Also, $100 contest. I am intentionally typing this out here and not in the title forcing people to actually view this thread and pay attention to the forum and not just the titles.

So $100 contest for anyone paying attention. Pick the 4 finalist and 2 winners. HINT.......pay attention to the bracket. I know some people will pick 2 people from the same side of the bracket.

2 mens finalist and then winner
2 womens finalist and then winner

so 6 potential points up for grabs. Most points wins.
Tiebreaker....number of aces combined in mens/womans finals.

ENTRIES CLOSE TONIGHT 1/12/2025 at 7pm. So posters have 9 hours to pick their finalists/winners

Good luck

I swear Sammy you should send this video to CBS Sports & see if they can get you on the payroll. They have tennis analyst who do breakdown videos from home. You definitely are on par with what they have to offer on how to present info inside a 10 minute window, great video as always.

Iga Swiatek vs Coco Gauff, winner = Iga Swiatek (I like her to finally break through quarters & win.)

Jannik Sinner vs Alexander Zverev winner = Jannik Sinner

Saba vs Coco - saba champ

50 aces ? I don’t know tennis much but that seems extremely high.

 

[jjgold]

It is extremely difficult to beat Coco right now
Announcers were talking the tiger wants no part because she hits too many balls back at her unlike any other player and she gets rattled

I can’t see anyone even coming close to Tiger or Coco

50? that seems extremely high.
