RR3: Goffin

Im pretty sure whether he wins or loses he wins his group and therefore wont play Federer until the final

Even if he loses in straight sets and then the winner of Thiem - Goffin wins in straight sets?
Krish872007

Yep, H2H breaks the tie

exactly he beat both Thiem and Goffin so he would win the group regardless

Right, I was thinking about the H2H thing.
Then Dimitrov is a safe bet tomorrow, I guess.

Well that was not a cool meltdown by Sascha :/ dont remember him playing this bad...

Damn! I see the H2H made it to this thread.
I’ve realised how important it is to mention it wherever I go now

He says he's 100% healthy apparently, just that the big win over Nadal played on his mind in the thrashing at the hands of Dimitrov. I haven't heard anything about him pulling out
Okay good.

Go big or go home, I guess

He's 3-1, but Dimi's only win was indoors. Going to be interesting.

Actually I'm gonna keep that as a provisional pick for now - want to see Grigor's game this evening before confirming my decision.
So t's Sock or Federer since picks don't reset? Yeah, I will wait until tonight.

Gopossum making my hunch he was hurting false logic. Dimitrov not being motivated also false.

Not a bad pick given their match-up and Sock's form lately. It is going to be 50-50 either way.

It's the match-up issue.

Dimitrov had confortable wins over Goffin (match-up issue) and Busta (when he was already qualified and played freely) but he struggled against Thiem (who is in really bad form) when the group was starting so I think he could feel a bit of pressure now that it's win or go home. Who knows...

It's catch 22. You can make arguments for both the players. That's why I said it's 50-50. Dimi choked against Isner and almost did against Thiem. It would be interesting to see how he plays against Sock when the going gets tough.

I guess you folks don't think sock can win?

I'm not 100% sold on it to be honest - do you think he can?
Hmm, Dimi is looking good.I'm even scared for Federer if they both make the final.
Not sure whom to pick.

Well a month ago I'd say he was firmly on my no pick list and even after Paris I'd have thought he'd go 0-3 in the group stage in London. But here he is in the semis and he's got a good h2h versus dimitrov. Not to mention he played federer pretty tight in the group stage.
Who knows?!?!?!?

Exactly. When he qualified after winning Paris I was very surprised because i feel like hes been horrible all year, but he played well in Paris and hes defied all my expectations so far this tournament. Hes playing with a total nothing to lose attitude and he could well pull off knocking off Dimitrov. Dimitrov looks so solid but we've seen fall apart randomly before so its possible it happens here.

None of us can pick Dimitrov because we all used him as our 1st pick

Well i crashed and burned. I honestly just didnt have a great feeling about fed, but surely thought he get past goffin and lose the final (to either sock or dimitrov).
Anyways. A great season and once again many thanks to all that organize. I really appreciate the effort it takes to run the totally awesome game.

We followed you out of the tournament quite swiftly to be fair.
I would never have called a DImitrov vs Goffin final at any point prior to it actually happening, but here we are.
Really well done on a magnificent 2017 season, enjoy the break and see you in the New Year!

Thanks. It's been a brilliant year even though we struggled at the tail end. Hopefully, we can enjoy some success in 2018. Thanks for organizing.
That save pick will definitely come in handy.
