Knowing all that I took it as well. I did not read the promo rules before today and I thought we can choose our champion and then I would have gone with somebody else. As it stands, we should at least get first free bet since Osorio should be passable even injured. After that it will get though, maybe one more win against Brengle/Yastremarska but then she will have to play Bencic which could already be too much. And after Bencic there is Barty which is impossible if she is not in top form and she is far from that. If I had to call it now I would say 2 free bet for us, but hopefully she will hit her stride and get better. Grand slams give you a day of rest between matches which helps a lot with taking care of slight injuries and building up your form.
Same here, I opted in almost automatically like I do for all these promos. But I'd have preferred it for men's, and now Djoko's accepted the decision to leave, I guess everyone left is licking their chops. Good luck with your picks, I might end up putting bets on AO on live betting if I manage to sneak in games during work. Aussie time is very weird though, I'll be asleep on the first games last I checked.
She forfeited semi final the other day to to abdominal injury. Not sure what the actual injury is but abdominal injuries are usually a bit on lengthy side in my experience. Would not be surprised if she shows up, plays one game (game not match), forfeits and gets the attendance check. Just enough to kill your bet.
Tried googling it but I am now even more confused
