Alright - who is going to reach quarterfinals, who is going to medal and who will win it all?
My bets for the mens tournament are:
QF:
- Krasilnikov/Semenov
- Brouwer/Meeuwsen
- Losiak/Kantor
- Nummerdor/Varenhorst
4. Lupo/Nicolai
3. Samoilovs/Smedins
2. Phil/Nick
1. Alison/Bruno
Women:
QF:
- Forrer/Verge-Depre
- Borger/Buthe
- Pavan/Bansley
- Hermannova/Slukova
4. Agatha/Barbara
3. Larissa/Talita
2. Ludwig/Walkenhorst
1. Kerri/April

I think Larissa/Talita and Evandron/Pedro both fail to medal. On the women's side:
1. Kerri/April
2. Germany
3. Canada
Men:
1. Bruno/Allison (I want to say Nick/Phil, but its hard to bet on Bruno over Nick, keep going back and forth on this one)
2. Nick/Phil (is Phil's calf still an injury?)
3. Latvia

Canadians giving alison/Bruno a little trouble early in the first set. The Italians were impressive this morning, Watching Women's indoor and mens beach at the same time, thinking after watching my daughter play beach all summer and seeing indoor vs sand directly side by side I am becoming a beach convert.

Walsh/Ross looked very strong and ready vs the Aussies last night. Did find a new favorite player though in, Mariafe Artacho del Solar. Be interesting to see what she can do in coming years
