I'll say Peng wins in straight sets, and Wozni believe it or not may go to a third or be more tightly contested "at first", but her power, play on grass, and athleticism is just going to overwhelm the similarly last named Canadian. She's not even turned 18 yet but just a star, very very bright future.

I have a few plays for tomorrow but none on the distaff side:
Nadal -900 Gulbis: Don't believe the hype, if Nadal plays his game this match shouldn't be competitive. Kiefer -1200 Vassallo Arguello: I wouldn't lay that on clay. This isn't clay. Murray -550 Malisse: Murray shouldn't have to play more than 4 to get the win. Becker -120 Clement: A good match between some of the smaller players on the tour, I have Becker rated higher on the surface. Good luck to everyone on all of their plays for tomorrow.

Good picks there, looks solid.
I'm going to lad Nadal against Gulbis. He's at 1.11 for the lay, and I'm expecting a first set tie break, where I'll back him at a higher price. Gulbis is a player on the up and I've been impressed with him every time I've seen him. He looks like he's got a solid all around game, and suited for grass. Also, Tanasugarn looks severely overpriced at 2.810. I'm getting on that. Last edited by woodg8 : 06-26-2008 at 05:33 AM. |

Gulbis might make it interesting early but I see him likely losing in straight sets, or at the very most taking one off Rafa. It'll have to be in a TB because I don't see Rafa dropping serve to him.

kiefer is 30 years old!!!...last time i lay heavy chalk on an old dude, it did not turned out well. kiefer has a really easy 1st round, as his opponent went to 5 sets...so kiefer should win this easy. but yeah, -1200 is way too much. gublis is not bad, but nadal is peaking right now, i just don't see nadal will get knocked out in the 2nd round. becker beat davydenko...this kid has potential...i already put a cent on him. still looking at the roddick game. roddick went through 1st round pretty easy, but roddick is not that consistent...not sure exactly if it is worth it to lay the heavy chalk here. i should probably stay off that one. what do you think wheel?

Tanasugarn got the break, and is 5-3. Hedged out of it now that she's under evens, a nice juicy profit too! Nice way to start the day.
Edit: Gulbis, what a player. Hedge'd out of the nadal lay now and another beautiful profit! Didn't expect him to win it 7-5, but I expected a tie break. His returning is just immense, and that drop shot is unplayable. Last edited by woodg8 : 06-26-2008 at 09:03 AM. |
