Cristian Garin reached the fourth round at Wimbledon for the second year in a row by defeating Elias Ymer, Hugo Grenier and Jenson Brooksby. He took on Alex de Minaur for a place in the quarterfinals.

Nick Kyrgios vs Cristian Garin prediction
Both players will be feeling quite confident after their hard-fought five-set victories in the fourth round. However, Kyrgios was the better performer based on their stats. The Australian had better serving numbers, blasting 35 aces and just three double faults. Garin, on the other hand, could only hit five aces and coughed up nine double faults.
The Chilean also went 6/22 on break points. Considering how good of a server Kyrgios is, if Garin fails to take his chances, it's all but over for him. The Australian pounded his groundstrokes to hit 79 winners to 42 unforced errors. Garin committed more mistakes, with 72 unforced errors and 56 winners.
Kyrgios' fitness remains an issue though. He appeared to be injured in his match against Nakashima and if he doesn't recover in time, it won't be smooth sailing for him. Garin's fitness and stamina will definitely give him an edge.
Despite his antics on the court, Kyrgios finally seems to be living up to his potential by playing some great tennis. The Australian is likely to continue his forward march with a win over Garin.
Pick: Nick Kyrgios to win in four sets.
