Tip and bets
Djokovic didn't show his best tennis in the first round against Kwon and made too many mistakes, which the opponent took advantage of. We believe the Serbian star will still pick up momentum, but right now Kokkinakis can maintain the handicap of eight games and win a set. We will be backing the underdog here.
Our prediction - handicap (+8) to Kokkinakis
Djokovic was not particularly impressive in the first round. Kwon could easily have won not one, but two sets. Kokkinakis should be able to create problems for the Serb today. Take the over.
