Australian Open Men’s Singles SF
Chung Hyeon is the newest darling of tennis fans and sports betting circles around the world after becoming the first South Korean to reach a Grand Slam semi-final.
While the illustrious trophy is still far from reach, betting websites and casual watchers are looking at the 21-year-old with great interest.
Of course, there’s the match between Marin Cilic and Kyle Edmund, but all eyes are fixated on the duel between Chung and Roger Federer.
Marin Cilic vs Kyle Edmund
Cilic is the heavy favourite to end up as a finalist at the Rod Laver Arena, but Kyle Edmund will do everything in his power to upset the party.
Kyle Edmund kicked Grigor Dimitrov out of the tournament in four sets in relative ease. Meanwhile, Cilic got a bit of a boost from Rafael Nadal’s injury to get himself to the Last Four.
I still think Cilic will win this match, but Edmund should be able to steal a set or two. Punters should look at Cilic’s -1.50 Asian Handicap for 1.70.
Chung Hyeon vs Roger Federer
Young Gun Chung is more than excited to be at this stage of the tournament than anyone else in the world. He said that he’s ready to play whoever won between Federer and Tomas Berdych.
I hope he’s ready for a tough fight as Federer looks as timeless as ever. Save his tough clash with Alexander Sverev, the Swiss champion won all of his games in straight sets.
I expect a fantastic game between this two, given how Chung scrapped for every point in this tournament so far. I won’t be surprised if Federer takes the other Finals spot, but I’ll be more than happy to see Chung stand on top.
