Final Points:
- If Kohlschreiber beats Monfils on Day 1, I like Germany's chances for the upset.
- Donald Young will not choke.
- Bernard Tomic is going to step up big time.
- Australia v. Italy for a spot in the semis? That'll be one heck of a tie.
- Berlocq is clutch in the Davis Cup. That's not stopping this weekend.
- Coric will get some good Davis Cup experience, but lose both of his matches.
- I'm a firm believer that Raonic will have a better career than Nishikori. Raonic will win the clincher against Kei this weekend.
- Switzerland's title defense efforts are laughable, they'll get drubbed by Belgium.
- I miss writing about tennis, but for now...playing baseball is my priority. I'll be back soon.
