16:00 Gilles Simon – Ivo Karlovic

Cincinnati – Masters, 1. round, hard
Their head to head record was 3-2 for Gilles Simon, the latest meting was in Indian Wells 2011 which is ended 63 63 won by Gilles Simon. Gilles Simon had 6 won in last 10 matches and 8/6 record on hard surfaces; while on the other side, Ivo Karlovic had 6 won in last 10 matches, with 15/8 record on hard surfaces. Both players have 3 meeting which is ended in 3 sets or more than 25 games. Referring to those statistics, bookmaker put Gilles Simon as favorite here, but I surely disagree here, since Karlovic had better recent performances lately, but however I’d prefer to pick for over games here then.
