Tsitsi worth 5/1 you think?

Nah, not really. I think he's playing really good so far, but Alcaraz is playing better.

I would bet on Tsitsipas at this stage of a GS

No surprises there, in the end, and I left the match just minutes before Kachanov actually did win the first set. Would have banked some money if I had just a few minutes to spare, but anyway, glad I stuck to my guns of ditching Tsitsi, still get tempted every now and then but I think his sun has crashed maybe for good.

Alcaraz will destroy Đoković. I will go with the biggest possible handicap the bookies are willing to offer.

I'm continuing with my bets on outsiders, today I'm going with Etcheverry to win against Zverev.
I have Zverev in BSFL and I do believe he's the favorite, but a much smaller one than the odds show.

Now you're talking my language! I put him in the same bracket as Medvedev -- not in talent, but in their ability to seemingly give up good positions often.

Re Alcaraz, haven't had the pleasure of watching him play recently, but if Djokovic plays anywhere near the problematic phase of yesterday's first set, I don't doubt a slaughter.

That said, I like Djokovic as the outsider, so I'm going the opposite direction from you, but waiting for markets to offer -handicap -- maybe not the max but I'd like to bump the odds to 4/1 min.

Ah damn, I see from my previous post that my predictive text left out the 'nt from would.

Tsitsipas needs to ditch his family from the coaching team, I seriously think they
are more of a hinderance than a help at this stage.

I know you buwaytress like myself and others have been let down by his performances
in the past so at this stage of a GS its way too risky to bet on him especially against to top guys.

Djokovic v Alcaraz, I recon there is massive pressure on Djokovic to get past Alcaraz,
on to the final and win GS #23, I might see can a handicap be picked up

Rune vs Rudd: No predictions possible. Maybe Rune has small disadvantages because he had to play over 5 sets against Cerundolo and lost set 4 quite easily.

Zverev vs Etcheverry: Zverev is the favourite here and I see him in the semi-finals.

Did anyone catch the discussion about Zverev's diabetes? He has to inject himself with insulin regularly. On the ATP Tour he does it on the court and nobody minds. In Paris, however, he was banned from doing so. He should please leave the court for it because it looks like something weird. He talked about it in an interview and now Paris has said he can take the injection on the court.

So far it looks like this will be the case. The Spaniard seems determined and driven to win his first RG. I guess his coach team are trying to make him believe he's the next Rafa and he has to win it this year to try to break Rafa's RG career record of 14 titles!

As to Etcheverry, I'm really doubtful this 23 yo Argentinian underdog will manage to beat the German. Zverev is maybe not in his top form but he's good enough to beat world's nr 46. Zverev has showed us so far he's experiencing issues after the injury to compete with top 10 guys but Etcheverry should be an easy victim.

Watching Alcaraz v Tsitsipas atm. Well, what can I say: Carlitos has entered some sort of god mode today. Opening set taken easily 6:2. If you haven't made your bet on this match, place it now! Cool

Alcaraz destroyed Tsitsipas in straight sets and this was just a one way street. Alcaraz really looks good and has one of the biggest chances to win this title . Cant wait to see him battle Djokovic in the semi final and i think it wont be easy for Alcaraz at all due to how big the experience of Djokovic is. Djokovic also has a perfect chance to get that 23rd grand slam title.

Haven’t watched any tennis yet as I am too busy with work but that would be an interesting match. I think the bookmakers will put Djokovic as favorite given his status but this could go also to Alcaraz. Might be some value in over x total games as I think it will be a 4 or even a 5 setter.

Watched a bit of Novak's match and after dropping the first set it was all one-way traffic from there for Djokovic.
And he is looking in form same with Alcaraz as he won a clean match against Tsitsipas.

Sabalenka won her match and was waiting at the net to do the courtesy of shaking your opponent's hand, did not get this gesture of sportsmanship from Svitolina but as the Ukrainian had said countless times before she would not be doing that towards any of those players from those countries attacking hers. In the interview after the match she explained it to the reporters who asked and said Aryna must have not been on social media in her making such a statement for these beliefs.

If I win the Khachanov bet, I'll place some of the winnings on Tsitsi - but I feel it's going to be one-sided.

The odds do have value though.

Alcaraz is going strong, has the first set secured and a break already in the second,
as serveria.com says above.

I would bet on Tsitsipas at this stage of a GS even with very nice odds and against
Alcaraz who seems to be on top performance.

I wonder if he has an added goal of preventing Djokovic from getting a set above his
countryman Nadal?

I'm doing really well on RG this season, so I have some budget available for crazy stuff Grin

I'll go with Khachanov today, the odds are almost 8 and Đoković does look solid, but not nearly as good as he used to.

Khachanov can make this difficult for Novak and the odds make sense to give it a try.

On a more serious ticket I'll go with +6,5 on Tsitsipas vs Alcaraz.

I read your post here and watched some of the match and thought that this one could end well for you. Khachanov played an incredible 1st set and what I liked a lot about his game is that when he gave away chances, he still kept going afterwards and won the points and the games. But I also thought that this could be one of those games where Djokovic is looking weak in the 1st set and then wins the game more or less easily towards the end. I don't know if the 1st set went that way because Khachanov was so strong or Djokovic temporarily weak. That's a question that is often difficult to answer. I am curious how far Zverev is going to make it.

nice match tonight between Alcaraz and Tsitsipas.
In all the previous clashes, the Spaniard has always won (4-0). today he is obviously quoted by bookmakers as a super favorite with odds ranging from @1.18 to @1.25.
what do you think? Will the Spaniard's drop shots secure a win for him?
https://youtu.be/0IIoSOBABc4

This is a very interesting match and in the future because they are pretty good tennis players and even have the same championship title which is quite satisfying.
But it seems that in this match it is Alcaraz who is being favored, I get Odds 1.21 for Alcaraz to win.
Hopefully he can give the best for us who support him.
But it is also possible for Tsitsipas to be able to beat Alcaraz because he sometimes gives unexpected surprise wins.

@cryptofrka yeah? I shoulda seen that, didn't know it was that low (odds are only 26/10 now boo) but phew what a match so far, actually quite lucky I managed to watch most of the early bits before needing to tune out now to focus on... real life haha.

But dang, Kachanov. Backhands were over 10% faster than Djoker's fores... didn't like how he kept backing up to receive serves but it seemed to work out for a long time... and then as usual Novak redirecting and squeezing the energy out of his opponent while fending off set points. Wish he'd have just lost though, so I could put a live bet at good odds.

Tsitsi worth 5/1 you think?

I do not see Cerundolo as someone who will manage to play over 5 sets against Rune. Rune is the favourite in this match. It will not be an easy match for him, but 5 sets? I do not think so.

Cerendulo was able to makes this match into 5 sets after set 4 could take it relatively easily, the fifth set was a very tight match and Cerendulo almost made it his win but the last two point tie break that Rune got due to a mistake by Cerendulo, so the quarterfinals will be pitted against two Danish tennis player Rune vs Ruud.

Thats was an unbelievable result, I know Trofo mentioned that neither Rune or Ruud
would have an easy day but Rune in particular had a tough 5 setter. I really thought
Rune would have made it easier but well done to Cerundolo for taking the match
to the limit, losing in the tie break.

Now again we see Rune v Ruud, lets see if Ruud can get payback for his loss to
Rune at the Rome semi Final? he is slight favourite and thats where my bet is going.

Rafael Nadal has certainly become too old. I know this is going to sound really bad and hateful but I honestly think that Rafael Nadal should retire from his professional career. He is not going to achieve much at this stage and also after so many injuries. It will be a good decision for him to retire because he still has a long life to live after his career. And remember he will have to endure the pain that he is going through for the rest of his life because of these injuries. These surgeries are going to have some effect on his body in the latter stages of his life.
Djokovic certainly has the chance in my opinion. But he does have some good competition as well.

Always hard for anyone to retire from something you love, but when you take Federer or Nadal as examples, these guys also have built decades of relationship with their fans. They weren't just playing, winning and then walking off court and that was it for the day or night. They deeply know that they will miss all these people who carried them through their entire career and that part of their emotions I think is really hard to overcome when you decide to make the final step and say goodbye.

But I agree that most likely any tournament that Nadal will play from now on is not going to end well for him and in this year's French Open he might have even get destroyed by Djokovic, which would have been bad. If it had been against Alcaraz, he could have said that he is forwarding the torch to him to defend their era on clay. Amazing what Alcaraz is playing on clay.

I understand that it is hard for any athlete or player to retire. Especially after a career like this. It's like they are home when they are playing. All good things must come to an end. He will have to retire eventually. It will be better for him if he starts thinking about his health from now on and retires early. At this stage, it is not going to be an early retirement. But I hope you understand what I am trying to say.

I also agree that there is a high chance that he is going to get destroyed by other players who are actually better than him in the current situation. Maybe he needs a final go at things to say goodbye to his fans.

Nadal has been thinking about his health for many years now or otherwise he wouldn't have made it so far in the first place. He started by reducing the number of tournament per year significantly over the years. But I acknowledge that I didn't expect him to win the French Open so often even after being injured all the time. That is when he proved a lot of people and experts wrong all the time, but this time feels different I think. But saying that he missed the golden opportunity to retire is also wrong. He gave himself the time to figure out whether there is still energy left for a few tournaments. That is normal and he didn't rush anything recently. As hard as it was for his fans to see him pulling out of the French Open, it was at least as hard for himself. But still he didn't take the risk and that is a sign that he thoroughly checks his options. It wouldn't be a shocker anymore if a Tweet comes very soon stating that his career is over.

In the match between Dimitrov and Zverev, I can rather imagine that it will go over 5 sets.

Etcheverry has more experience on clay. Nishioka has only won 3 times on clay since 2014. So I see more advantages for Nishioka here, although Nishioka are more talented.

These two matches ended quite quickly with only needing 3 sets and Zverev and Etcheverry will be in the quarterfinals, and all the players who make it to the quarterfinals are only Etcheverry who is unseeded and Zverev will face him in Wednesday's match.

In the women's section, one of the quarterfinals that really caught my attention was Svitolina vs Sabalekna, this was Svitolina's first Grand Slam quarterfinal after a long break from her tennis career. I know it's not easy to stop Sabalenka because she's quite a complete player but anything can happen.

Zverev v Dimitrov under way right now. Sascha won the first set easily 6:1 but then Grigor managed to break him early in the 2nd. What happened next is hard to explain. The Bulgarian lost his serve and then something like 14 or 15 points in a row. They showed Dani Vallverdu's face several times and he looked very concerned about the situation. Then Dimitrov lost the set after a series of unexplainable unforced errors. Set nr 3 now and things are looking good for Sascha.

Zverev vs Dimitrov

Zverev is the winner of this match and he was able to win quite easily in the end. He took all three steps very easily and convincingly 6-1, 6-4, 6-3. This was a very good performance from Zverev. Dimitrov tried to actually get something out of the match. But he was not able to actually get even one set. There was a slight hiccup for Zverev from time to time but that was nothing major.
