Shanghai Drama!
Okay, so I questioned the ability of Gilles Simon, and he goes out and takes down Federer in three sets...let's be honest NO ONE saw that coming. I was recently asked "Can Djokovic beat Davydenko?".....My answer: I believe Nikolay Davydenko is the most dangerous player on tour, due to his methodical way of playing, great stamina and extreme consistency. There is no question that I think Davydenko can pick up big wins over the top seeds in Shanghai, including Djokovic...however, in this match I'm putting my confidence in Novak. The Serbian scored an impressive win on Day One, and will ride that momentum against "Davy"... For the record, I'm not one for predictions, because everyone is so close, "Any Given Sunday".....but it's always fun to analyze!

Dear Harry,
Is Andy Murray your favorite for the tittle ?? It is pretty hard to predict even if he's playing a tremendous level of play since a few months, he's saying that he's tired and that he does not expect much of this tournament... He should probably go through the Simon match who has benefit from the numerous unforced errors on Federer forehand...
