Re: Tennis : French Open (28th May - 11th June)

Why have all my 3-0's decided to lose the 2nd set?:wall :wall :wall
No Joke.. That aside, tomorrow is shaping up to be the match ups I enjoy. Leans (I don't see market corrections, but even more spread between the lines, so I'll wait) Montcourt over Hewitt - Montcourt isn't much but he plays on clay, can move Blewitt around and can possibly take it. Can he sustain enough for 3 sets? Dunno. But Blewitt hasn't done a thing all year and carries a serious ankle injury from last week. Taking Blewitt? Do it at a bookie that doesn't cash in on a set. Montcourt? Take it on one who does. Norman over Monfils - Monfils shown in rd128 that he sucks, even in Roland Garros. Norman doesn't have that much to smile about, but he blitzed through his last round, is a quallie and has serious potential. Benn over Baggie - I fail to accept that Bag. is a force on clay. Considering that Benn. is a clay courter I think he has a chance as well. Another fav. with injury history over this clay season. Hernandez over Ivan - Ivan's last month of clay has been pretty sad. Hernandez put Simon away like he was Chela. Keep in mind that Simon has had a stellar clay season and was playing at home. Hernandez has a chance against a subpar Ivan. Suprised to see big Ivo as a dog against Hrbaty. Ivo's serve has been working very well across the clay and Hrbaty hasn't been working much at all. He did have a win against Ivan, otherwise he's underperformed this clay season. I see Haas and Waske closer to 50/50. I haven't researched any of these match ups for h2hs yet, so unless there is something suprising there, Waske could go over him. Laying the 3-0 has potential as well. Serra over PHM looks like potential as well. Though it would have to move quite a bit to get me to bite. Castano, Dulko, RHH, 'gro, oliver, czink are in there.

Re: Tennis : French Open (28th May - 11th June) I haven't looked into any of the matches for tomorrow yet but....

Love it:ok

Love it:ok Depending on the prices I may go for laying the 3-0's on those, but they do look very appealing dogs:loon

Re: Tennis : French Open (28th May - 11th June) Well, looking ahead to this side of the third round, it's hard to see much value. Fed v Massu Berd v Kiefer Ancic v Montan Dlouhy v Robredo Nalby v dimi/henman Sluiter v some guy who will tear him apart Guadio v Ferrero (which will collapse?) Moya v Davy So yeah, most of my weight will be into tomorrows card ;)

Thought Henman was actually playing quite well though today..
I know. Can't believe how well Tursunov played - who tought him to play on clay?:unsure Of course tomorrow could be totally different, it just takes one or two of his shots to start missing. A long way back, but I think Tim can take the third and then we'll have to see what happens after that:hope

Henman does not know how to play tennis, he is awful just like murray.
:rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin :rollin Masters Series winner. Multiple time Grand Slam Semi finalist on 3 different surfaces. Over 300 weeks inside the top 10. All after recovering from a broken leg/ankle he was 21.
British have no good players, they are all natural born chumps with a bad attitude to the game.
What part of Britain are you from mate?:tongue2

Re: Tennis : French Open (28th May - 11th June) wow! 1 Masters series title in his entire career. Is that supposed to be impressing? Never came close to winning a Grand Slam. I'm from manchester. I see you are from Newcastle, I went to uni there. loved it there, people were nice apart from the dilluded football fans.
