Play about to start so will have to be brief. After Nadal and Djokovic got good wins yesterday, Alcaraz has drifted and so I'm now going to back him. Tsitsipas has also drifted so I'm going to put a b

well sadly carlitos will exit here...too many errors and zverev has the consistency and serve to make him pay for them

Was very much looking that way with Carlitos' hopes disappearing in a flood of unforced errors. Somehow though he's managed to sneak the third and so it's game on.

you realy root for zverev over alcaraz ?

Of course. Zverev has always been my favorite player. I had placed several bets on Zverev as well, so there you go

Left himself with too much to do in the end. Just too many mistakes in the first two sets.

Alcaraz reached his peak potential at the age of 18. Personally i changed my mind. He perhaps start to go down.

I didn't like him at all today. He was looking weak and very vulnerable to Zverev's heavy and down lined strokes. 

No chance to compare Alcaraz with Nadal. Big blasphemy.

Yesterday I lost two more outrights as Fernandez and Alcaraz both bowed out, but on the plus side Nadal knocked out Djokovic which means only Cilic and Rune can give me a full loss on the Men's side. Alcaraz losing was a surprise, but Sascha deserved to win as he served well and took advantage of Alcaraz not playing as well as he can do. It was a bittersweet result in many ways - I've got a decent position on Zverev to win the tournament, but I had a decent position on Alcaraz as well and I'd rather have carried that forward as it's fair to say he had a better chance of taking the title.

On to today then and with my liabilities on Cilic in mind, I'm going to cover some of them by backing him to beat Rublev. He's never been the biggest fan of clay but he's playing the best he's played for years and whilst a win over Medvedev in the last round probably isn't as good as it sounds, the manner of the win was impressive. If he plays at that high a level again then he can beat Rublev, who lost the first set of his match against Sinner and who may not have won it had it not been for Sinner's injury. At the same time as backing Cilic to advance I'm going to add to outright bets on Rublev and also Ruud, purely on the basis of price.

 

45pts Cilic to beat Rublev @ 2.30 Boyles

5pts Ruud to win ATP French Open @ 12.27 Betfair Exchange

2pts Rublev to win ATP French Open @ 19.62 Betfair Exchange

So Nadal and Swiatek are the huge favorites to win the FO title. I'm rooting for Zverev and Kasatkina. ?

Kasatkina still struggles to finish games. It's going to be difficult for her. 

Zverev can win against Nadal , he's been very good for the last two matches .

Kasatkina is the only player available at better odds with the bookies; 80/1 on offer with PP or Lads. The latter the place to go if you think she's worth an interest as, with boost, you can get her at 100/1 e/w versus just 60 win only on BF.

I had a small bet at the 100/1. I guess tomorrow I get reminded of the subtle difference between "getting the value" and actually winning! :)

Cilic just about got over the line against Rublev, which will soften the blow if he goes on to win the title and also makes up a little for my losing outright on Rublev. The other winners yesterday are all players I've backed, with Ruud, Kasatkina and Swiatek prevailing. As the tournament heads towards its conclusion I've placed a few more outright bets on the exchanges. First of all I've put some more on Kasatkina, just in case she gets the better of Swiatek - it has the makings of a fascinating match as the power of Swiatek and the finesse of Kasatkina meet. I'm also topping up on Sascha and Ruud. I think Ruud beats Cilic and I don't see Nadal as a shoo-in to beat Sascha. There's been no sign at all of the foot injury that hampered him before this tournament, but it could appear at any time and even more so after two gruelling matches against Auger-Aliassime and Djokovic.

 

10pts Zverev to win ATP French Open @ 5.51

10pts Ruud to win ATP French Open @ 8.25 

5pts Kasatkina to win WTA French Open @ 15.70

A lot going on here, so my first post in a while. 

Been watching a lot of the tennis, but is tough because the matches start East coast time (6am). My feeling is that Zverev didn't play a great match. Alcaraz gave it away.  He just started so badly, with so many unforced, stupid mistakes. Had about 7 after 2 games.

I think the Swiatek v Kasatkina match is just one way traffic. Kasatkina just can't hurt anyone on the court. Steady, not making mistakes, high looping shots, probably plays right into Swiatek's game. Her serve is a liability ... Kudermetova actually ate it for breakfast, but has a nothing serve herself (on clay).  Cannot see beyond a straight sets victory for Swiatek, in what should be a 1 sided spanking. Probably 2 and 2 or 2 and 3. If Kasatkina suffers some nerves, and Swiatek gets the momentum this one could be embarrassing.

Trevisian has a decent chance against Gauff. Has to pressure the Gauff forehand and hope she has a slight nerves/off day. I have a strange feeling someone runs away with the 1st set here and then it gets tight and close.

I can't access my betting account so no bets for a week,

Doubt Kasatkina has any chance against Swiatek who can exploit her service game.  I reckon Kasat will be broken (at least) 3 games in the first 2 sets.  Unless she can break back - her weapon against others in RG earlier matches - the match might end up Under 18.5 (G).  

Due to Kasatkina poor service games like I have said, Easy Win for Swiatek - 6-2, 6-1 (Total Games 15)

Like what Neilovan predicted too, it was embarrasing for Kasatkina.

I respect zverev, but the nadal from the djokovic match has no shot of losing against him. I think that it will matter that rafa won in 4 and not in 5. What do you guys thing about ruud cilic ? I clearly see ruud as the winner, but with the random peaks from cilic , I m a bit concerned.
