Fritz is one of the best grass court tennis players in the world, as he's coming off a final in Halle, where he lost to Frances Tiafoe.
His serve is very stable and he's also consistent on his second serve, committing a small number of double faults.
For example, in Halle, in that final against Tiafoe, he didn't commit a single double fault. In the first round of Wimbledon, Fritz committed zero double faults against lucky loser Dusan Lajovic.
Kypson is an interesting talent, but I don't think he'll have a strong chance to win against Fritz. He has a strong serve, but on his second serve, he often has problems. Recently, he committed five double faults against Aleksandar Vukic and four against Mackenzie McDonald in a four-set match.
I think Kypson will commit more double faults, but since that prop isn't widely available at books, I'll take a stab at the American recording 5+ double faults at +125 at bet365.
Pick: Patrick Kypson 5+ Double Faults (+125, bet365)
Berrettini vs Fils Odds
| Matteo Berrettini Odds | +175 |
| Arthur Fils Odds | +226 |
| Over/Under | 40.5 (-115o / -125u) |
| Time | How to Watch | Thursday, Approx. 10 a.m. ET | ESPN Unlmtd |

Berrettini is coming off a strong performance in a four-set victory (four tiebreaks) over Stan Wawrinka. The Italian is one of the best grass court tennis players in the world, as he's won Queen's twice and was a finalist here at Wimbledon.
He's healthy, so he can win at least one set on Thursday against Fils. And honestly, it wouldn't be a surprise if he won the match outright.
Fils has had many health problems this season, but in the first round against Raphael Collignon, he was dominant. Although he easily prevailed in straight sets, he served eight aces in that short match.
Recently, on clay, against Emilio Nava, he had three aces.
I expect a long match on Thursday (four or five sets), so I believe that Fils will have plenty of opportunities to serve over 7.5 aces.
Pick: Arthur Fils Over 7.5 Aces (+105, DraftKings)
