Matchups and thoughts for the remainder of the second round:
Kukushkin vs Raonic
Raonic a big favorite here and rightfully so. Kukushkin is on his best surface, but the only way I see him making a statement here is if Raonic just shoots himself in the foot.
Kubot vs Groth
Both players made big statements in the first round with Kubot taking down Kevin Anderson and Groth knocking out another hometown favorite Leyton Hewitt. By the numbers I think Groth should be a little bit more of a favorite than he is and that would be my play here if I decide to make one.
Nieminen vs Duckworth
Interesting matchup here. Nieminen is the slight favorite against Duckworth. Who is coming off a huge win, in his home country. The numbers all say Nieminen, but I like the Aussie here after such a dominating first round performance. I'll take Duckworth on the ML at 2.25.
Federer vs Millman
Not much to say here. Federer should cleanup if he brings his A-game. Don't see any value in betting the favorite here though at such long odds against a local player coming off a win. NO PLAY
