    Slam Predictions 2015
    Predictions? Throw in WTA if you like.
    AO:
    RG:
    WM:
    USO:

    Who might shock the world by winning a slam? Any dark horses for these events with good futures value?

    Next year should be great

    Two new faces winning slams in 2014 in Wawrinka and Cilic. Can they repeat?
    Will Murray find his old form?
    Will Djokovic get his French Open?
    Delpo will be back.
    How much better can Raonic, Nishikori and Dimitrov get after a much improved '14, and maybe Gulbis deserves a mention too.
    How long will Nadal be out for due to injuriy?
    Fognini?
    What a time to be alive.

          Raonic worth a punt in most Slams. You may not like his game, but he's relevant late in Slams as of this past season. He might need a Cilic-like perfect storm where Djokovic or Nadal is nowhere in site.

          Expect Rafa to win the French and go down sometime after that, unless he finally learns how to schedule himself better during clay season.

          Think Murray will be a factor in all Slams except the French. I think Wimbledon is a viable winning spot for him to get back on top.

          Djokovic will be there as always. Expect he will win one and be in position to win one or two more - see if he can finish better in 2015.

          I think Cilic was a flash-in-the pan/perfect storm winner. Would be surprised to see him make another Slam Final. Nishikori just seems to frail to get there. Dimitrov too void of desire at this stage.

          Guy I want to see how he progresses is Thiem. I think he's got a shot to become a legit threat at least on clay and hard courts.

              1. If Djokovic keeps his form up all season, and get no injury, it will be not a big surprise he is winning all 4 majors.
              2. Wawrinka may have a better season next year, and can be second man in the rankings.

              Rafa hopefully can come in good form and change these 2 predictions. Tennis needs some excitement, like we had in the previous years.

                Well, Bouchard may finally break through in a major after a good year. But there is going to be someone from a group of 25 that could make a semi if things fall.Hey its the WTA!!!

                      True story, Fed keeps choking... Murray will be better, but I thinks he's on his way down for good. Nadal, he's close to done. Nishikori, maybe. Wawrinka isn't winning shit ever again. Raonic, if healed has a shot... Nole is in his prime... If he wants the federer like respect he has to win more slams, now.
