Re: Tennis - 9-15 May this was already mentioned by dizzyme in the last thread, so I am not claiming to be the one who suggested it first, but I just canot ignore ATP Rome R1 Raonic to bt Verdaso @2.200 Pinnacle Raonic was in superb form against Feliciano Lopez in Madrid, and it is hard to believe he could lose to Verdaso. Verdasco lost to Lu in Madrid, and this was mainly due to the good serve of the Thaipeanese. The more he should struggle against Raonic. Raonic had enough time to recover strength after Madrid, and he is going to crush the out of form Verdasco. also adding one WTA Bethanie Mattek-Sands to bt Flavia Pennetta @2.120 Pinnacle Pennetta is playing nothing since Doha this year. She did only beat Baltacha in IW R1, and that was all. Since then nothing. On the other hand, Bethanie seems to be gaining momentum. She did beat (out of form?) Ivanovic in Madrid, and it was apparent that she was mightily disappointed by her loss to Li-Na in the QF. IMO she is ready for another big run in Rome. 2.120 cannot be ignored. GL :hope
