Wimbledon 2015: Timea Bacsinszky an Unlikely Favorite


With the early exit of Simona Halep, her side of the draw is thrown into disarray and frankly, there is no clear favorite anymore to reach their semifinal slot.  I was betting on both Angelique Kerber and Timea Bacsinszky to be the ones most probable to take her place.  Interestingly, when I did their head-to-heads, Timea has an edge at 1-0.  

However, I do not know how well Timea plays on grass and if she can duplicate her feat at Roland Garros, but anyhow, since all these are based on an objective head-to-head, I pick Timea Bacsinszky to take the semi-final slot on her side now that Simona Halep has exited.

Svetlana Kuznetsova and Camila Giorgi are the other dark horses on this side of the draw.
