You have an excellent chance to win this time.
Zverev played at a higher level in the Olympics and Cincinnati than Djokovic did in winning the first three slams. If he can replicate that form at a slam for the first time--a big if--the people who think this is all in Djokovic's hands will be proven wrong. I'm betting his game will drop and the double faults will return, but it's not certain by any means.
However, I don't take Kerber seriously on a hard court anymore. I hope I'm wrong because I love her game, but I would not be shocked if she loses in the first round to Yastremska, who hits a huge ball but usually gets flustered and falls apart. Yastremska might get too big a lead to get flustered this time. And even if Kerber wins that one, I don't see her getting past the third round.
