CzechPunter Posted June 13, 2021 Author Share Posted June 13, 2021 Matthias Bachinger to beat Dalibor Svrcina at 2.00 with William Hill Let me kick off the next week with a Challenger pick. Svrcina will be playing at home and he's a decently talented junior, fair enough. Even then, I wouldn't have him as the favorite in this match by any stretch. Bachinger was very good last week, losing only to Baez with a 6-7 6-7 scoreline. Before that, he beat two better players than Svrcina in Halys and Kovalik. At odds against, I have to bite.

Angelindo Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Hello. Saw the schedule of hale now. Giron is going to play the qualification against rinderknech, and main table 2h after against pospisil. So, dont understand that. If this is right, rinderknech has all the value tomorrow, right? K8a 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CzechPunter Posted June 14, 2021 Author Share Posted June 14, 2021 Well, what a match that's turning out to be. Bachinger took the first 6-2, then lost the second 0-6. Will have to be careful this week, it's easy to overshoot after a Grand Slam! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CzechPunter Posted June 14, 2021 Author Share Posted June 14, 2021 Well, that was...strange to say the least. No accusations, just saying. Will be interested in Struff-Medvedev tomorrow, should be a cracker! K8a 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark22 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Struff is very bad on this tournament and also has bad record on grass so I wonder if he will be a threat to Medvedev: http://www.tennisabstract.com/cgi-bin/player-classic.cgi?p=JanLennardStruff&f=ACareerqqB2DHalleqq What the hell happened to Bachinger? He won 5! points on return in 2! sets.. this is crazy, if he at least retired.. CzechPunter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CzechPunter Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 Obviously quite gutted about his poor showing against Schwartzman! Now he's beating Medvedev with ease! K8a and mark22 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CzechPunter Posted June 16, 2021 Author Share Posted June 16, 2021 Nikoloz Basilashvili to beat Arthur Rinderknech at 1.84 with Unibet For some reason, Basilashvili tends to play his very best tennis in Germany. I wouldn't be that keen on backing him early on, but he's made it trough the qualifiers here and that shows that he cares. He lost only against Cilic last week and this will obviously be easier. If he keeps his level from the Simon match, he should be able to get past Rinderknech. marzipan, delfino, K8a and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CzechPunter Posted June 17, 2021 Author Share Posted June 17, 2021 In the meantime, I'm also shocked by Jack Draper. Beating Sinner and Bublik without dropping a set, that's massive. I saw him once this year in one of the early Challengers and he was absolutely crap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstly, the surface. He'll have played on grass plenty, Sinner and Bublik won't have. Secondly, positive variance - winning four tie-breaks in a row requires luck. The other thing to consider is whether beating Sinner and Bublik is that impressive an achievement anyway. Sinner is very one-dimensional and doesn't seem to have much game intelligence, and Bublik is erratic and mentally inconsistent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinner is very one-dimensional and doesn't seem to have much game intelligence, and Bublik is erratic and mentally inconsistent. Yeah, also he was probably very slow from the blocks. I saw him against Nick Chappell some months ago and he was just terrible. I must get a glimpse of him against Norrie, that's someone consistent and with a lot of motivation as well. Draper beat him last year in an exho, so let's see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torque Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Should be a good watch. Norrie never convinces me, despite his strong season so far and it wouldn't surprise me if Draper beats him. Having said that, it'll be much more difficult to beat Norrie than it was to beat Sinner and Bublik, which is another reminder to be wary of backing players on the basis of ranking and reputation.

You are absolutely right with all you have said. Out of interest I watched Draper/Boblik from beginning to end. I wanted to really see what kind of player that he was. I saw the way he completely pulverized Boblik once ball was in play. He has this very sweet timing on his shots that immediately puts him in charge after two plus hits.. Boblik was never ever able to find his balance to stay in the rallies and always had to revert to lobbing to recover his court positioning. I am not too sure how his game will work out against Norrie as they are both lefties. Norrie is clutch and has a fair amount of grit. Having said that and having considered their only match up in 2020 (7-6 7-6 Draper) it is draper that really looks the value by many miles in terms of the handicap and winning a set. Norrie has already had a superb season even by his own expectations. This Draper will seem another good British prospect in the making for certain. Remember how we suddenly woke up to Norrie after he beat Bautista on clay in a Davis cup tie? Enough said here. CzechPunter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your opinion, what's the chance of Basilash getting one more over Harris today? At least 50-50 or less? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinnho Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 (edited) Attempting another bet today for revenge of the previous loss at 1.5X Madison Keys -2G to beat Samsonova @ 1.80 with Pinnacle Samsonova might have beaten 2 strong players, Vondrusova and Kudermetova but they are not strong players on grass like Keys. Keys will normally win this match and hopefully by more than 2G! Edited June 18, 2021 by Robinnho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrO Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Berrettini is enjoying a very good season so far. Except of Bublik and Fokina,his defeats are coming from better ranked players: Medvedev,Tsitsipas,Zverev and Djokovic. His record is 26-5 which is pretty decent,i would say. So far,he didn't show any sign of injury,fatigue problems.. But above all this - he've improved his game. Particulary on backhand side. Before,his bh was very vulnerable. Not even average,but poor. These days his bh is solid. Not solid as his forehand,but it's no longer poor..he is now able not just to hit cross-court bh,but also down the line..also his slice is decent enough..so plenty shots to mix with.. of course his serve and fh are stil his "trademark" shots,very powerful shots.. His footwork is nice, which is very important on grass surface especially His return shots are no more than average,but i believe that he could 'live' with it..like i said - tough nutt to crack and don't believe anyone will fancy him in draw.
