Tennis singles 2017 YE: PREDICTIONS NOW PLEASE
On the men's side, I have no boldness to offer: my top 3 is current top 3 in order, and my top 4 is a perm of Multipleman's top 4. Difficult to do otherwise when the top guys just seem so dominant. I paid the price last year for my ambitious punt on Kyrgios (though I was damn right about Raonic). This year there were only 5 names I considered seriously: the 4 I've ended up choosing, plus Nishikori. Oh, and just possibly Thiem or Wawrinka at opposite ends of the age spectrum. I don't see Federer back in the top 10.
1. Murray
2. Djokovic
3. Raonic
4. Nadal
On the women's side, it all seems so much less predictable: there must be a dozen or more women who would have a really strong chance of a top 4 year end ranking. Only Serena seems to me to be a "must choose".
But that makes the guessing more fun.
1. Ka Pliskova
2. S Williams
3. Kerber
4. Keys
