Despite the fact that tennis is not my core competency, I am going to try Baghdatis to beat Wawrinka tonight. Clearly the two players a class apart, but Markos hasn't been playing very well. During an interview today at the local radio stations he mentioned that he is ready to pick up his game, and try and win the title of this tournament.

We all know how capable Baghdatis is to beat any opponent, but he hasn't shown that lately. I believe that tonight we will see an improved Baghdatis, determined, and in my experience he seems to be doing better when the lights of the press are not on him. Furthermore, his popularity is sliding down, and I am sure that he will want to keep the sponsorships of MTN telecom, and Societe Generale as he is regarded the greatest celebrity here in Cyprus.

After a series of disappointing results, it is time to pick up his game, and Baghdatis strikes when you least expect him to. In my opinion he will get a comfortable win, and prove that he is a serious player.

Medium stakes for this pick.

Good Luck
