Kokkinakis +130 over Verdasco
Steve Johnson +105 over Carreno Busta
Kokkinakis was very impressive against Federer. I keep wondering when Verdasco's form is going to fall off; he's 34 years old. His movement is still very good. That being said, I give the edge to Kokkinakis who just knocked off Federer, by far the biggest win of his career. I know players sometimes have the tendency to come out flat after a huge win, but I don't see it.
Steve Johnson hasn't looked uber-impressive this hard court season. But he's played about 4x as many matches as Busta. I think Busta is still struggling to find his form after an amazing 2017 season. Johnson always plays better on his home soil. I give him the edge in this one. Thoughts?
