    Na Li -180

    I understand she has been training on clay getting ready for Garros. If she is in-form and indeed healthy she should walk through Safarova today. Right?

    I liked Safarova a lot but the line went up in favor of LI, so I will wait it out till game time . But I like Safarova. GL

    Is there a reason why Safarova? She is strong on the surface, but Li has dominated the h2h and has been a magician on clay.

    Hate laying -180 on women though.

    Safarova's been playing very well on clay. She pretty much straight setted and crushed everyone except for Serena on her last clay tourney. I believe this is Li's first clay tourney this year. Should be a close match.

    yes that's the only reason. Honestly idk much about tennis so I kind of base it off line movement. I know not smart but it has been working for me

    My understanding is she has been training exclusively on clay like Chinese people tend to train. French open cometh. Should be fresh. She is 11-1 against lower ranked opponents this year and 1-1 against higher ranked opponents. She is the Garros defending champ. Safarova is scrappy and talented on clay and has been playing all over. I think the China woman takes this as she has been focused on this surface and gearing up for French defense.

    4u at -180 (gulp)

    The way I capped this match, both talents are about equal on clay so if I can get Safarova at +150 or so, I'll go with that. Li does have a nice record against lower opponents but throw those stats out the window with clay ....much more upsets happen on clay than any other surface. ....and in the WTA, unless you're the top 5, any of the top 20's can beat each other on any given day.

    For some reason, I'm thinking Li might not have as much drive for this tourney. She's getting older and she might be saving up for the slams....just my opinion....good luck!

    Li's groundstrokes are indeed better so far....but Saf's serving is going to play a big part in this....she's gotten a lot of easy points....tiebreak here we come.
