  1. Re: Tennis - French Open

    Hi guys, 1 pick for French Open Semifinal match: SCHIAVONE TO D DEMENTIEVA @ 2.1 on willhill On other surfaces Dementieva would be a favorite but on slow clay with rains and cold weather Schiavone will just run all the time and retrieve balls. Dementieva traditionally has problems playing this type of opponents (recent losses to Pironkova, Dulgheru, etc.)
    I think the weather is supposed to be better today...
  2. Re: Tennis - French Open I hope Fed comes through (sure he will). I have a large wedge on him winning his quarter. My only concern is the conditions, looks like on/off rain all day and not sure who heavy conditions suits more? Nevertheless Soderling must pretty much crap his pants every time he sees Federer on the other side of the net.

  3. Re: Tennis - French Open

    Too much tennis for Verdasco, bet he's regretting playing Nice last week. Nadal is looking vulnerable aswell, think he'll still win it but he would have faced big problems if Soderling was in his half this time....serving very average and alot of mid-court balls from him.
    Agree on both counts. Almagro to win a set v Nadal is 2.62 on Skybet and I think it's worth a pop.
  4. Re: Tennis - French Open

    Just been reading that Ljubicic has got a wee niggle in his ribs. Not the best thing to read after I've put my treble up with him in it but still feel he can get the job done. Fish isn't at all comfortable on clay' date=' especially in wet conditions on a slow court.[/quote'] Surely Fish would be great in wet conditions? Badda boom :drums :)
  5. Re: Tennis > 10-16 May Murray just served badly. He was at 50% first serves in, whereas Ferrer was at 86% - this was the difference IMO. Murray was also only winning 38% of points on his second serve - not good enough. His second serve is found out even more on clay than other surfaces. If Murray could have got say, 65% first serves in he would have at least taken it to 3 sets and perhaps won. PS. If Federer serves well he will beat Ferrer quite easily.
