Wimbledon Day 2 Predictions

Jaime Faria vs Sho Shimabukuro

Amanda:

Sho Shimabukuro proved himself this season as a solid grass-court player, and though Jaime Faria had a solid run in qualifying, he’s much better on clay. Neither player has won a main-draw match at Wimbledon, and Shimabukuro has the better chance to improve his record here.

Prediction: Shimabukuro in 3
