amity

William Hill (in the #YourOdds section), go 5/2 on 'Aryna Sabalenka & Coco Gauff Both To Reach The Semi Finals' I don't see who beats either of these women prior to the semis. Zheng has not been able to live with Sabalenka's power thus far and none of Muchova, Badosa or Fernandez are in anything like the form Gauff is in of late, laying waste to everyone she faced in the United Cup. Kenin first up isn't ideal but Gauff should take care of business there too. For me, the 5/2 is worth a wager.

Boylesports going 8/1 boosted price for Sinner and Sabalenka to win Australian Open. I think it's worth a couple of quid.

Littler is unstoppable. MVG is playing well aside from his doubling, but Littler is lethal with his finishes particularly on his trusty double ten. Immense from the young lad, MVG not getting a look in so far, he's getting mauled by the youngster. Astonishing display.

Over 4.5 170s in the bag too. Thanks Luke! 😎👍

One consolation is we got our over 3.5 170 checkouts now. I was sweating on that one a bit as that was my biggest pre tournament bet! 😁

Speaking of which, we could easily have had ten or twelve 170 checkouts already, unbelievable how many chances have gone by the wayside. Incredible that we've only had three so far.

Littler is scoring loads of 180s but frustratingly can't seem to put two together to set up a nine darter, he's also missed countless opportunities to take out the 170. It feels like he's doing enough to win but no more. I know he's just seventeen but with the talent this lad has, he could have had a slew of nine darters and 170 checkouts already this tournament.

So we're into the quarters from tomorrow, going to be very interesting. Littler was a bit up and down last night but brilliant at times, dug deep to beat Joyce. He'll likely have to do the sane vs Aspinall. I just wonder how many times he can go to the well before it runs dry. 🤔 At this point I'm 50/50 on whether Littler will go all the way.

How in tarnation is Doets level at two sets apiece!? 😆 Dobey missed so many chances to go 3 sets to 1 ahead, he must be kicking himself. Are we going to see another implosion from him like last year vs Cross? 🤔

Incredibly Humphries could be on his way home in another twenty minutes or so. Wright playing like a man possessed. Luke is definitely below his best, not playing at the level we've come to expect from him, and Wright is striking while the iron is hot.

The following bet has to have a good chance of coming in, it's 10/11 with Paddy Power: Gerwyn Price Most 180s (v Jonny Clayton) & Luke Humphries to beat Peter Wright

The young lad must have heard me as that third set was vintage Littler! 🤣

Littler not at the races so far. White playing well. Does he have a chance here? 🤔 White could be two sets up actually as he missed a dart to take the first set.

It's two so far. Kist and Cullen.

Aspinall's doubling is the best I've seen so far. Gives him a chance against anyone. Goldfinger's doubling is almost as impressive to be fair (I must have hexxed him, he just missed two darts to make it one set apiece!) 😆

Despite losing a few quid on Wattimena, it's still good to see Wright starting to play more like his old self. Hopefully he shakes off that cold before his next match.

Whatever about the quality or lack thereof of both players on the night, have to say that 170 from Cullen was top notch. Worth waiting for!

'Two useless ****' is about the only words I can find for that clownshow! 😆

Gurney seems determined to let a very average Clayton get the better of him, despite having numerous chances to win several legs, including the first set. 🫣

He's losing this unless he can somehow get his head together for the final set. Shocking collapse from the Aussie.

Get in!! 👌✌️😎

Gurney +1.5 sets, Bunting to Win, Wattimena -1.5 sets & Humphries -2.5 sets. Taking some of the 3/1 with Paddy Power

It was a great shout all the same mate. Very unlucky that it didn't come in. I got lucky and cashed out with a small profit at the end of the third set.

Boylesports have Ratajski and Rock both to win with a full house, boosted to 13/2. Whilst it's by no means certain that it comes in, the 13/2 is tempting, even the preboosted odds of 11/2 seem a bit longer than I would have expected. With neither of their opponents being experienced on the big stage, I think the 13/2 is worth a small wager.

Crazy amount of favourites losing today. Absolutely bizarre. Anderson is the biggest shock of all, he just never got going and his opponent played very well. Bottom half of the draw is wide open now.
