Well, it is extremely difficult to pick the finalist and the
winner before the event has even started. I wasn't sure of
the winner until the last point of the final was over. This
year was particularly hard to predict as there were so many
good players who all had their chances.
As it is for most slams. One looks at the draw, thinks about how the
players have been playing recently, and makes an educated guess. Granted
upsets happy often, for example who could have predicated that Djoke
would hurt his knee or Sabalenka would suffer from a virus and/or flu
during this slam event?
You did well to guess right, but I am curious whether you
also bet real money on some on-line betting site?
I don't gamble; especially with gambling websites or locations like Las
Vegas that have far better houses, cars, and clothing than I will ever
have. That's why I am so appreciative of MJ for holding this contest -
its about bragging rights only. Fun only.
I only had the nerve to bet on Zverev's win over De Minaur
and the match turned out to be much closer than I expected.

You made the correct call on the above match, good analysis!
