Rublev at 15/1 now even is tempting, if he does a miracle, no better chance to win a GS.

I don't think Rublev can win it, he just doesn't have the constant. What do you mean no better chance to win GS? He plays Djoković next which is toughest possible draw for any player in any Grand Slam. Yeah he came far, but I don't see how he can win against Djoković in best of 5 sets. He can take first set for sure and maybe second but I am expecting him to loose belief during second set already and after that it will be one way match.

The toughest, but it's as if you only need to overcome one (the biggest) hurdle tomorrow, and the route to the final gets easier. If I'm Rublev, I'm thinking I'd rather meet the final boss early, because I'll probably play at lower levels later, which won't be enough to overcome Djoko then. If I get past this stage, it's uncharted territory and I won't have the home crowd backing me, the final would be too much to overcome

So while I'm totally with you here, he's not got it in him, but if he has a chance, it's the brightest if he wins tomorrow and his chances against Djoko is at its best tomorrow.

That said, definitely, all in against him once he's 2 sets up Wink

I also was thinking that Rublev must see the raining field of players and thinks yes
'once I get past Djokovic I will have lesser more beatable players'.

I also share the same concern as you guys, mentally he is not as strong as he needs to be.

Also I think there is a small red flag as to Djokovic' fitness/injury and to how
serious it is if there is one.

Re: Paul, he is in control ATM in the 4th set to win the match, he will be serving shortly
to take it. I had a small conservative bet on him, so I'll be happy with that.

The Rublev - Djokovic game will start in 9 hours. The numbers 6 and 5 in the world. Djokovic is good, but so good that the bookies only give him 1.15 for a win? Maybe they are doing Rublev short with that, after all you are not just 6th in the world. And Djokovic also suffers from an injury, so the balance of power will still be less than the picture that the bookmakers have currently outlined. With the women Azarenka won a nice match today, I read that she last won the tournament 10 years ago. By the way, let's not forget that Australia has produced great players like Patrick Rafter.

Rublev has an odd of @6.20 if he manages to win this game, I think bookmakers must be very confident that the result of this game is already decided and that they don't expect any surprises such as an unexpected victory for Rublev, I I think Rublev even if it's a small chance he can still win the game but given this odd of @1.14 in favor of Novak I would not risk betting on Rublev even if he has this odd of @6.20 which is even very tempting, it really sounds like buying a lottery ticket but in this case it has a good chance of winning win, but I still won't bet

as I am a guy who is too lazy to watch tennis games, it will be very difficult for me, because if I were a patient guy who watched all tennis games, I could watch this game to see to what extent each athlete has an advantage over the other and with this could see if the odds are good for betting, but unfortunately with so many soccer games to watch and bet there is no time to watch tennis games, at most I can only place bets before the games start

Tsitsipas has the possibility to become Number 1. So far, however, he has only ever made it to the semi-finals in Australia. But Djokovic could also become Number 1. If both reach the final there will be a new Number 1 and Number 2.
But first Tsitsipas has to play against Khachanov. He had won the match against Korda. Unfortunately Korda had to end up his game because of an injured wrist.

The thought that Tsitsipas may soon surpass Novak as the world's top player is mind-boggling. If he were to reach the top of his profession, as he has been accomplishing over the last several years, the world would be a better place. But, as you said, Djokovic, a veteran player, is also in the running. In the event that they both reach the championship game, fans will have a fantastic contest to enjoy.

Khachanov, moreover, is no dummy on the court. His recent performance is oustanding. Tsitsipas will need to play at a high level if he is to go to the semifinals and defeat him. It's tragic when a star player like Korda is sidelined due to injury, but we can only pray that he makes a full recovery and comes back stronger than ever. The stakes in this contest are high, for sure.

It has been a really weird tournament so far. Considering that Shelton and Paul are playing against each other, we'll have an unseeded player in the semifinal.

Yeah, some constants (well, one constant) set in stone, and others not. Anyone who's got an outright on Shelton or Paul must be really tempted by cashout now (I know all normal bookies normally let you cash out these kind of outsiders), pretty sure both were 150/1 at the very least.

Rublev at 15/1 now even is tempting, if he does a miracle, no better chance to win a GS.

Đoković could not have had it easier than this, if he beats Rublev he's practically in the final.

Tsitsipas looks like the likely finalist from the other part of the draw as well, Khachkanov looks like a dream draw in the GS semifinal.

I'm really not sure which of the remaining tennis players in the tournament can stop Djokovic on his way to the title. Tsitsipas? I don't think he's ready yet.

You can't beat Djoković in his game which De Minaur proved today. One of the better movers and counter punchers on tour was scrambling to get anything in the match against Djoković. Only way you can win against Djoković in form is to shoot trough him.

Rublev on his day can do that and I actually think he could be a test for Djoković, problem is Rublev has troubles of keeping his levels high and once Djoković enters his head it will be all over. Just hoping Rublev will open strong and give us the match and maybe some juicy odds on Djoković.

It would be great to see Rublev actually win the tournament, he is such a hard worker
and is very hard on himself. His weakness I think is is mental ability....although he showed
strong character to come back in that final set today and win....even with a bit of luck with a
net ball! First he has to get past Djokovic on Wednesday

Of course Djokovic knows all this and will be using it against him for sure.

When someone other than Djokovic wins the title the tournament become more interesting.
In the present scenario it is really hard for anyone to compete against Djokovic and win the title.
Rublev is hard working, but it looks like luck doesn't favour him.
Let's see what's gonna happen with the upcoming matches,
because in recent days more unexpected results gave come out.

Well Djokovic' days are numbered, he cannot keep going, his body will dictate that. He is already
showing signs of that.

Korda had to retire against Khachanov with a wrist injury.

Up next is Tsitsipas v Lehecka and the other quarter final is Shelton v Paul.

Rublev, Tsitsipas and Paul IMO could still trouble Djokovic.

What Djokovic showed was phenomenal. The Minaur only won a few games in total. It seems as if Djokovic is playing against amateurs, while these are just players from the top 25 in the world. Who is going to stop Djokovic in his half of the schedule?

they all seem weak next to Djokovic right now, he will face Rublev in Quarter finals and the odds are favoring Nole with 1.14 for him to win, this shows how much he is dominating right now, and after that he will face the winner between Tommy paul and Shelton, both are easy opponents for him, so reaching the Final seems really easy for him.

It is already predicted one, because the advertisement that prompt for Australian Open itself have Welcome back Novak Djokovic. As he didn't attend the previous tournament, this time this is something confirmed as a title win for him. At times scenario could change and for now he's playing in a cool way with confidence. Until that is with him, no player can make a win against him.

Rublev - Ruhne was a great match. A decisive 5th sets after the set score ended 2-2 after 4 sets. It does save a lot of time and energy for players that a super tie break is now played. That is, until the 10 points instead of the normal tie break (7 points). Ruhne had a 5-2 lead in the 5th set, and also led 5-0 and 7-2 in the super tie break. After that, Rublev won no less than 7 points in a row and then the rank was empty for the Dane. What Djokovic showed was phenomenal. The Minaur only won a few games in total.

Avoid women's haha. Only 3 of the top 20 seeds left, might as well throw money on outrights left if you like doing that.

Meanwhile, Tsitsi definitely on course for another semis, probably really lucky to get stronger opponents knocked out before their route reaches him but I'm not falling for him. If he does make the final, then the gods are really laughing at me.

I'm with Trofo on Rublev. Hoping for a strong start, will take Djoko if first set goes against him, and another even bet if he even drops a second set. That's the only sure thing I can foresee for now.

I favored Rune against Rublev, did not bet on it though.
The reward for the winner is the QF against high flying Đoković, who's started strongly against De Minaur as well.
The semifinal in that part of the draw will be fantastic for whoever wins there, it seems like Shelton and Paul (both unseeded) will fight for the SF spot.
Shelton is already through, while Paul is currently 2-1 in sets vs Bautista Agut.

Djokovic started very well against Minaur and currently leads 6:4 and 5:1.
He looks like a tennis player on a revenge mission after everything that happened to him last year in Australia.
I'm really not sure which of the remaining tennis players in the tournament can stop Djokovic on his way to the title. Tsitsipas? I don't think he's ready yet.
On the other hand, Bautista Agut has big problems in the match with Paul and is on the verge of defeat. I thought this would be a much easier match for him.
Currently, Paul is leading 2:1 in sets, and there is a big and uncertain fight in the fourth set.

Djokovic won against Minaur very convincingly. Did not lose even one set. A very dominating performance by Novak Djokovic. I do not know if anyone will actually be able to stop him in this tournament. Djokovic is playing really well and I also agree that it feels like he is on a revenge mission. It will actually be interesting to see if anyone can stop him. I do not see anyone who will be able to honestly.

In other matches, Bautista Agut lost against Paul. He did give good competition to Paul. But fell short.

I expected three players who are supposedly underdogs in Australian open, Shapovalov, Sinner and Korda, apparently only Korda is still in the tournament and I'm expecting him to keep going forward, his next opponent is Khachanov and Korda is the favorite to win against him, after that he might face Tsitsipas in the semi final and I'm predicting that Korda could reach the final, we'll see what happens, he's a young talent and I saw how calm and well composed he is even against tough players.

Korda shows a great performance. The fact that he defeated Medvedev in 3 sets was certainly not expected by the most. But he had to play 5 sets against Hurkacz and needed the most of the time for the last set. But that was an important experience for him. He really has a lot of potential and if he continues like this he will become a top ten tennis player.
