edtkh Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) Anyone have an idea on how serious J. Gimelstobs backinjury is' date=' by any chance ?? He's playing massu now, 1-1 in set, 2-2 in 3rd..[/quote'] Where did you get the news from, Jedd? He was up a break before getting broken back at 5-5 in the third set...

If he loses this tiebreak, I can't see any way back for him especially if he's plagued by the injury... :hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edtkh Posted June 22, 2005 Author Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) Gimelstob has just shaded the 3rd set tiebreak 7-5 to take a 2-1 lead - hope that gives his confidence(and Massu's a dent) a boost now. :hope Time to worry about Ferrero now... :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) Whatever the result, Philippoussis showing that he still has a quality game on grass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) Gimblestop looks awful on the pictures now, really struggling to get through, hope he can do it for you guys but not looking good. Its the same injury that forced him to retire in the qualifiers agasint Bastl before he got in the tournament through withdrawals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedd, Gimelstob did receive treatment for his back, but I'd still rate this as 50-50 - if anything, it just underscores how poor a player Massu is on grass given the way he's struggling against the lame(quite literally)... :hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) Still serving well estkh :) I think he has to get this done in 4 sets though, I would think he would really struggle to get through a 5th, heres hoping :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmphill Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) I know Philippoussis isnt 100% but im well impressed with Safin today. Anyone else impressed? If his minds right i think he could spring a major shock at this tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grazza Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) edtkh i have a question for you, i hope you dont mind. I was just wondering how you decide to combine your picks. Every day you make10 or 11 predictions and combine them in doubles and trebles. How do you decide which picks should combine with which?

dave Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) Should have backed Bjorkman to be fit enough - he only had to last just over a set before Davydenko retired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedd Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) Does anyone here think that JJ are value at 1.74 (betfair) to beat Greg R. ??? It seems a tad short I feel allthough he's rigthly fav and according to interview with him he should now be fully fit....:hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) IF JJ's fit then that is a massive price, I'm trying to decide at the moment whether to take a gamble on his fitness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just wondering how you decide to combine your picks. Every day you make10 or 11 predictions and combine them in doubles and trebles. How do you decide which picks should combine with which?[/quote'] Depends on the confidence level I have for the players, really. I'd probably round up 7-8 players each day whom I feel confident about and then sort through them(basically ranking them in terms of confidence level and also taking their prices into consideration). I don't think I've done as good a job with those selections on the first two days of Wimbledon as I did at Roland Garros, but here's hoping today's selections hold out. :hope Just read Davydenko has retired while he was ahead? What's that about? :eyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) Just a few thoughts for Thursday, let me know where I'm going wrong. Just using betfair prices here. I think I've under-rated Igor Andreev (1.81) on grass, and taking another look he's actually not bad on it. Big servers, or good grasscourters will beat him, but as far as I'm aware Davide Sanguinetti is neither. Is is worth a lay of Roddick 3-0 (1.34)? against Bracciali, who I haven't seen, but appears to have a big serve given that he won Surbiton with 8 of the total 12 sets being tiebreaks. Judging by what happened against Karlovic he won't break Roddick, but can he nick a tiebreak or two? Novak Djokovic (1.73) came past YT Wang and Wesley Moodie in the qualifiers (both no mugs on grass) and should be better on this surface than Garcia-Lopez unless someone can convince me of the Spaniard's ability on grass. Victor Hanescu has done nothing on grass, which makes the 1.36 on offer for Sebastien Grosjean look very gernerous. Karol Kucera has just come back from a long injury to, and while he had an easy first round match, David Nalbandian (1.23) will provide a much tougher test and should take this comfortably. Alexander Popp (2.54) is getting some match fitness now, while Wayne Arthurs is massively overrated on grass, seemingly because he sometimes has a decent serve. Popp has reached the QFs twice if I remember correctly, and you don't do that by luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulenos Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) Well done, edtkh, as you finally managed to turn the tide. Well done to all who managed to end in profit and not only today:) The Bjorkman bet was voided by most books as Davydenko retired.:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunglesix Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Re: Tennis : Wimbledon 2005 (20th June - 3rd July) A loss yesterday of 20pts but thankfully Monfils came good ! Any further thoughts for Wednesday matches.... Malisse to beat Coria @ 6/5 Popp to beat Arthurs @ 5/4 These seem good to me... Any advice ?
