New York--(lawntennismag.com) Our picks for Tuesday:
Lleyton Hewitt (AUS)[16] v. Amer Delic (USA) Arthur Ashe Stadium –1st match
Delic is a solid player, but I think Lleyton is strong on offense and runs everything down and should win this.
Prediction: Hewitt
Martina Hingis (SUI)[16] v. Mathilde Johansson (FRA) Arthur Ashe Stadium –2nd match
The Swiss Miss wins in less than one hour. Enjoy these easy wins now Martina.
Prediction: Hingis
Michael Russell (USA) v. James Blake (USA)[6] Arthur Ashe Stadium –3rd match
Power forehands and serves plus a rare one-handed backhand are weapons Blake will use to get past Russell.
Prediction: Blake
Roberta Vinci (ITA) v. Maria Sharapova (RUS)[2] Arthur Ashe Stadium – 4th match
Sharapova has a dream draw. Vinci is one part of it. Maria should cruise until the fourth round at least.
Prediction: Sharapova
Justin Gimelstob (USA) v. Andy Roddick (USA)[5] Arthur Ashe Stadium – 5th match
These two played at Wimbeldon in round one. The result will be the same: Roddick in straight sets.
Prediction: Roddick
