Wimbledon Men\'s Day 6 Predictions

The third slam of the season is in full swing as the third round of the 2024 Wimbledon Championships wraps up on Day 6.

Wimbledon is back for day 6 and the third round is set to begin. We have some great matchups on tap, including Alexander Zverev vs Cameron Norrie. As always, LWOT will be offering up our roundtable predictions for all the Wimbledon action. Joining me, Ateet and Jordan, is Damian.

Without further ado, here are our predictions.

Holger Rune vs Quentin Halys

Ateet: Rune has been one of the few players on the men’s side who has looked great and has not spent extra energy playing five-setters. He will be looking forward towards the potential fourth-round clash with Novak Djokovic. Quentin Halys will be in his way who has played a great tournament so far. Rune goes in as the favourite and should get the job done.

Prediction: Rune in 4

Jordan: Rune faces a tricky test against Halys, who does everything solidly. That means he could pay the price if he starts as slowly as he did against Thiago Seyboth Wild in the last round. But I doubt Rune will be guilty of doing that two times in a row.

Prediction: Rune in 4

Damian: Halys is a real threat and while his last good tournament was literally Wimbledon in 2023, he suddenly found his game again in time for the big event. He’s been deadly since the qualifying and has that aggression to really take your breath away. As long as his body holds up, this seems like a complete coin flip to me. And given Rune’s recent records, I’m not fully convinced that I should trust him to deliver.

Prediction: Halys in 5

Taylor Fritz vs Alejandro Tabilo

Ateet: Taylor Fritz is playing at a high level at the moment, and it would be hard for any player to stop him. He loves playing on grass and the grass rewards him back with results. Alejandro Tabilo is having a wonderful year and is thriving on all surfaces. He has the game to trouble Fritz but Fritz will be ready.

Prediction: Fritz in 4

Jordan: Fritz will be thoroughly tested by Tabilo, who has made huge progress this season. The American’s serve in particular needs to be firing, since Tabilo is an excellent returner. Overall, I still think Fritz’s firepower makes him the favourite, but the match will be competitive.

Prediction: Fritz in 4

Damian: That men’s third quarter is blowing up and Fritz might be the best candidate to pick up the pieces. The American won Eastbourne last week, while Tabilo claimed the title in Mallorca. Fritz already managed to take a lot of momentum from a pre-Wimbledon title back in 2022 and should be able to do it again here, he’s just the stronger player and Tabilo’s lefty shots going at his two-hander isn’t a problem for him at all.

Prediction: Fritz in 4

Francisco Comesana vs Lorenzo Musetti

Ateet: Comesana could not have hoped for a better start to his Grand Slam career. After beating Andrey Rublev in the first round, he backed up the performance against Adam Walton in a hard-fought contest. Lorenzo Musetti also played a five-set thriller against fellow Italian, Luciano Darderi. Musetti has lots of wins under his belt this grass season and will fancy his chances to get at least one more.

Prediction: Musetti in 4

Jordan: Comesana has surprised many with his run so far, since he had no previous history of grass-court success before this tournament. By contrast, Musetti was playing well on grass in the leadup to Wimbledon. Expect this to be close, but the intensity of Comesana’s efforts may finally catch up with him in this one.

Prediction: Musetti in 5

Damian: Comesana’s play in the first two rounds here has been incredibly refreshing as he once again shows he’s way more adaptable to faster conditions than most other clay-courters. But Musetti has made such awesome progress off-clay too and is putting in a very strong grass campaign for the second season in a row. Comesana can do this, but overall the Italian can probably deliver that quality a bit more reliably.

Prediction: Musetti in 4

Alexander Zverev vs Cameron Norrie

Ateet: Cameron Norrie played his best match of the year to beat the British No.1, Jack Draper in straight sets. Norrie displayed great intensity right from the start and did not let Draper settle. He made some great passing shots throughout the match. Zverev also played one of his best matches on grass if not the best against Marcos Giron. This will be a great match if both the players can display a similar level but Zverev has the slight edge because of his big serve.

Prediction: Zverev in 5

Jordan: Norrie has lost all five of his matches against Zverev, However
