    Maybe Arango + games in Guadalajara? Yesterday she was really solid vs. Potapova, and the Colombian was raised in Medellin, that is 1500 m. high, so no problem for her with playing at this altitude…

    Greetje Minnen to beat Harriet Dart at 1.50 with Bet365
    I backed Dart against Niemeier in the previous round and I was happy with the outcome, but I wasn't particularly happy with how Dart played. She was very lacklustre, with plenty of double faults, while Minnen looked much better against Parry.

    Camila Giorgi to beat Mayar Sherif at 1.57 with Unibet
    This looks like a great opportunity for Giorgi to finally get a win on the board, Sherif should lack the skills to do well in the Guadalajara conditions, where it's really hard to control the ball. Giorgi needs to control one or two balls to win a rally, while Sherif needs a fair bit more than that.  
    Harriet Dart to beat Jule Niemeier at 1.93 with Unibet
    Niemeier looked like a big talent at one point, and she might still come back to do something, but she's been very up and down so far this season, mostly down. She tends to snowball performances well, but she's without much practice here, while Dart got a decent match against Savinykh in during the qualifiers, which should serve her well. I'd also say that she's the fitter of the two, and the Guangzhou conditions look like one of those in which fitness can play a role (in the qualifiers, both Volodko and Golubic looked tired after less than 2 hours).

    As I played Dart +1.5 sets and a couple of Chall matches, cashed out my first bet for today.
    Wondering what to combine Giorgi with? Thinking about Stearns or Collins maybe

    Aryna Sabalenka (-1.5 sets) to beat Daria Kasatkina at 1.84 with Unibet
    Sabalenka now doesn't have much pressure on herself anymore with Swiatek out already, and her playing style gives her a massive advantage over Kasatkina, as she can bash returns for winners without many difficulties. Kasatkina hasn't been at her best lately either, so I like the odds for the 2-0 scoreline here.

    Face-palm level of badness there.
    Peyton Stearns to beat Katie Boulter at 1.73 with Bet365
    Stearns looked good against Tauson, though that result shouldn't be overestimated due to Tauson falling away physically in set two. Still, Stearns was pumping herself up, she's beaten Boulter already in this season, and she's going to have the same or even better crowd support as against Tauson.

    Vondrousova - Jabeur
    My first reaction seeing the odds 2.80 on Vondrousova was how is it possible odds are so big on her; this being a final and except if i am wrong she beat opponents as worthy as opponents that Jabeur beat , she already beat Jabeur twice this year on hard , i feel those odds are purely based on public perception of the rankings of the 6th playing  against the 42nd.
    I'll take Vondrousova and will split my betting amount 30% on the 1st set and 70% on final win.

    Carlos Alcaraz (-1.5 sets) to beat Daniil Medvedev at 1.76 with Unibet
    Alcaraz is 10-0 on grass so far this season, and he will obviously be keen to lock himself a spot in the finals convincingly today. He crushed Medvedev when the two last met early in this season, and he's been the better player all year long. Medvedev is also yet to be tested in this event - Eubanks tested him, but he's hardly a world class player, which says a lot. Can't see past Alcaraz in this one, Medvedev would somehow have to switch back to his best, and he hasn't been able to do that for ages now.

    Eubanks is not to trust. Although i was tempting to back him, i changed my mind soon. He is a typical error machine player in very easy points. Similar to Bublic.
    I can't trust him against ANY top player in slams. Tsitsipas would be the jackpot for him but personally i am away. NO BET.
    Today the best selection in my eyes is Berettini to beat Alcaraz @3 BET 365. 
    The Italian is back to top form, and Alcaraz is not so convincing so far. He is a huge player by any means, but today i fancy the chances of the super strong Italian to pay me
    Good luck my punters!

    Teylor Fritz to beat Hanfmann is a combo material. Short price around 1.24 but i can't see losing this one. You can not imagine how bad is Hanfmann, he won against Tsitsipas as i tipped but Tsitsipas is a big fraud this period.
    Our good contributor Neliovan, informed me that himself is a tennis coach, and that what Tsitsipas is trying with his new one handed backhand may take time, or years to work. Thanks very much, i am not a tennis coach, i am a tennis observer, so i observe what exists now, i can't move to the dark future to observe! And there are NO guarantees in this life. I mean this backhand may work in future, may not work. What i observe now is that Tsitsipas in terrible and fraud. A play boy who change girl friend every week or two. Now he is with Badosa the Spanish tennis player, but it not clear if he has only her or both the Badosa sisters. I am thinking to place a bet on Thiem, but what stops me, is the fact that i didn't see Thiem playing for ages . So i must wait for the second round to attack Tsitsipas, providing that he will pass Thiem
    Good luck punters!

    Two bets I like for today at Wimbledon. 
    L. Fruhvirtova to beat Martic - 2.54 with Betfair
    Svitolina to beat V. Williams - 1.49 with Betfair. 
    Martic is very up and down at the moment and Fruhvirtova has had a few matches on grass with wins over Pera and Svitolina so won't be an easy match up for her. 
    Svitolina will wear down Venus, she will keep making her play another shot and Venus won't be able to keep running to get the ball back. The only way Venus wins this is in two very quick sets because Svitolina can't find any rhythm early on.

    My tip WON. 
    I must explain why i rated Feliciana or Feliciano Lopez as an operetta. Well, if you bring back Federer, he will win the half players of the current top 100 ranked. As he is now, without practicing at all, just with his tennis attitude. But he would lose to other fifty percent! Sure thing! Because he is lacking training, fitness, and motivation. Federer is wise enough not to continue to play as just an average player losing to anyone passing from his road. Lopez is just a tennis cheater. He continue to plays for money. He won against Thomson who was bored and unmotivated. I watched about 10 minutes of that match, and i said to my self what a joke is this one. 
    I will teach you  a lot about tennis. So, don't rush to criticize me, because i am well equipped with observation tools

    Eastbourne - Gauff to beat Pegula - 1.69 with Betfair
    Pegula is Miss Consistent, but Miss Average at the same time. She's only reached a grass QF once in Berlin and despite hitting flat shots she doesn't seem to get on that well on grass. Gauff's game is more suited to grass, she's had two easy wins against mediocre opposition but it's a great chance to go far here and grab some easy points. Pegula has lot her last 4 matches against the current top 10 and also struggles in the wind, and Eastbourne will supply her a nice breeze to make things difficult.

    Ostapenko reminds me Marion Bartoli in 2o13. Extremely powerful hitting of the balls, impossible for the opponents to return such hitting. Of course she is NOT the paradigm of a reliable and consistent player, that's the reason she pays such high to lift the trophy. However, in women tournaments, so many players won grand slams as dark horses! 
    Muchova for me, is the most complete player outside the Polish robot. But the Polish robot is NOT so unbeatable on grass, and Muchova was so near to beat her even on clay!
    I support Muchova as my favorite player. 
    About Alcaraz? Just think that he is a case of a new Nadal. Not so extraordinary good on clay, but SUPER GOOD in all surfaces.
    More info soon!

    Today Marozcan to beat Elias Ymer is something good. Price is wonderful 1.66 offered by bet365.
    And again i go in a separate single worth to risk case, Haffmann to beat the only one hand player mister Tsitsipas. Huge price again by 4.33 bet365
    Anytime i see Tsitsipas on grass i rate the opponent's probabilities. The German is super server, and he can break the weak Tsitsipas backhand a couple of times, imo. 
    Tell me something please. Why Tsitsipas continues to use his backhand in such ridiculous way? Are his team of coaches composed by blind men? I think yes, they are blind, and they give me.  the opportunity to risk against him.

    Bad Homburg - Fernandez to beat Blinkova - 1.79 with Betfair
    Blinkova's game not suited for grass really, she's been struggling with emotions recently and was seen crying after losing to Avanesyan recently. She struggled against Lisicki and could have lost and I think Fernandez will take this. Leylah has been saying how she doesn't focus on results now, she's putting the work in and as long as she is training well doing things right then the results will come. If things get tight this will help her, and I feel Blinkova will start to worry about losing too much.

    It is quite a rare thing to see exceptional woman's tennis matches.
    Most of the stuff is pretty average. Double faults, unforced errors and a one dimensional game. I have seen 3 excellent matches in the last couple of months. Jabuer v Danilovic (French Open), Jabuer v Muchova (French Open), and the final in Berlin between Kvitova and Vekic. Vekic actually had a big chance second set. Served for it at 5-4 and then lost it in a breaker.
    But the tennis in Berlin was top class. Very few unforced errors and exceptional hitting of the ball.  Kvitova in this form will take some beating. Her serve is dynamite, and she has tremendous power off both sides. It is the best I have seen her play in years. For me she destroys Ostapenko today.
    Then you compare this match to yesterday's encounter between Pliskova and Mertens. The gap in quality is miles. Pliskova and Mertens played a match of 'worse' and 'worser'. Mertens had 10 double faults in the 1st set, and neither of them could hit the ball.
     
    Pegula has played one match (doubles) on grass and may be a little undercooked for Zheng.  I am also not convinced regarding Boulter v Martic. Boulter won a tournament but you look at the quality of the field and it was weak. (Burrage 131, Watson 195, Dart 143, Snigur 157, Appelton 230+ so very low ranking opponents).

    Jelena Ostapenko to beat Petra Kvitova at 2.38 with William Hill
    Two tournament winners from the previous week, and I don't really know why Ostapenko is the underdog. Kvitova with more traveling to do and with the age factor as well, I'd much rather be on Ostapenko at above evens.
