What luck for the samurai?

Well, this is likely to get intense, my friends!

Even if he lost in his first match against Munar right here last year, Daniil has excellent results here on these medium-fast hard courts. Good serve, flat trajectories, Ironman-level endurance, Miami suits him well. His odds? 1.05... Sakamoto really impressed me with his composure, even though he’s usually a bit erratic. He’s young, I’m not going to blame him. But against Kovacevic, he showed maturity and went out and earned his win. With his already very impressive serve quality, his courage and his power, we might be able to have a little fun with some overs or handicaps. Although Daniil will surely stand a bit far back to return as many serves as possible and make him play... But! The IW / Miami transition is never easy...
