The odds on De Minaur are growing, I just took him to win @2.15. He was the bookie favorite yesterday.

Nadal looked really good against Cobolli, if he's healthy it will be a hard match for De Minaur.
Still, Nadal is just coming back to tennis and the odds on him losing are too good not to take.

Did anyone watch him play? Rublev said he's in great form but hard to tell from the results alone.

I saw him play the first set today, really closely fought, he looked unfit TBH, he was panting
alot already in the 3rd game while de Minaur looked fresh. The second set was a wash out,
I guess he was wrecked after the first set alone.

When I first saw him yesterday against Cobolli I commented that he looked "chunkier" than
before. In the end after my post above I did a small straight win on de Minaur, I
figured it was too soon to expect Nadal to win after being off for so long and de Minaur
actually playing well so far this season.

Yea Alex de Minaur will post a greater obstacle to Nadal progressing. Cobolli yesterday
made way too many unforced errors, at one point in the second set it was up to 40! I
guess thats what happens a lot when playing the likes of Nadal?

Rafa is slight favourite at 1.71 while de Minaur is 2.1. This is probably a perfect match to
play a handicap bet but which way I'm wondering?

Still in the mix too are Ruud, Humbert and Tsitsipas who plays Ofner so he should
be winning that.

Nadal made a fairly smooth comeback in the first ATP Barcelona match, it only took about an hour and a half to move on to the next round and will face Alex De Minaur, and Nadal is still the favorite in this match.
Can't predict how big his chances are of going all the way to the final, because even though this is his favorite surface but he hasn't played long enough even his certainty of playing in the tournament doesn't look convincing because he announced it just one day before his first match, maybe he will eventually withdraw again in this tournament after facing a tough match and against De Minaur is certainly not easy.

The competition in ATP Barcelona became less intense after the top five players did not play, so the winner will be quite difficult to predict, Tsitsipas and Ruud are the favorites at the moment but I'm not so sure that they will both go smoothly here.

Game against Cobolli wasn't the worst option for Nadal, but I am pretty curious to see now his performance against De Minaur. He is not the strongest player on this seed but I think that he can add at least a chance against him.
I am curious to see the odds but actually I haven't find anything Sad

We will be watching to see how Rafa does and in particular how and if Tsitsipas can
back up yesterdays win, surely he is favourite for Barcelona now?

this surface was not the best for Tsitsipas and I was really surprised to see him achieve a great result in Monte Carlo.
well, with Sinner he was really lucky but by the way, he is the winner of tournament.
Let's see here in Barcelona what he can achieve... personally I don't see any chance for Rafa but lets wait how he will play
But he was the winner anyway and in this tournament Tsitsipas played in the final well so got very easy win over Ruud.
Previously I predicted that the final would not be theirs but everything was different from reality and there were some things that didn't make sense that happened before.
But I will say congratulations to Tsitsipas on his win in the Monte-Carlo Masters tournament.

Nadal will play Cobolli tomorrow in the last 64 and Nadal will get an easy win in this match to move on to the next round.
Tsitsipas himself is still waiting to see who will be his opponent in the last 32 and there is still possibility that he can play well considering that no one else is dominant in this tournament.

We are back on again today at Barcelona with the rounds of 64.
Some news from the tournament, Nadal is scheduled to play tomorrow against Cobolli
and Alcaraz is not playing! neither are Djokovic or Sinner.

We will be watching to see how Rafa does and in particular how and if Tsitsipas can
back up yesterdays win, surely he is favourite for Barcelona now?

Sinner's defeat has a lot of space this morning in Italian sport newspapers.
Now here it is (rightly) a sort of national hero... and everyone is celebrating also his way of act....
Today his fair play is praised for not having stopped the game following an error by the referee during the third set. (use translate....)
Jannik Sinner is indeed a player who has a good attitude on the field and not many players in the ATP have that attitude because the referee's mistakes are often used by players to damage their opponents' concentration by shouting angrily and complaining like Daniil Medvedev did when he lost to his compatriot Karen Khachanov, Medvedev was angry and At the end of the match Khachanov in an interview said he tried not to look at his opponent because he didn't want to break his concentration.

The Monte Carlo Masters final was not like a final match because Casper Ruud did not perform as well as when he beat Novak Djokovic, and Stefanos Tsitsipas managed to become champion quite easily
Stefanos Tsitsipas becoming champion for the third time in this tournament and this give him many points to return to the top 10 as will Casper Ruud.

Yes what a great win from Sinner, he dug deep to take the 3rd set although Rune's serve
abandoned him in his last game. Sinner plays Tsitsipas in todays semi final, this is a big
challenge, Tsitsipas has been playing at hos very top level, this is a big change.
My money is on Tsitispas today, he is a better clay player and has good H2H against Sinner, 5:3 in total but 3:1 on clay. Sinner on the other hand is playing in the form of his life and that makes this match 50/50 for me. Then when you see odds @3.7 for Tsitsipas it becomes a no-brainer. Don't think I have seen a more "value" bet in a long time.



 

Good call Trofo, in fairness Tsitsipas has been the best all round player of the tournament
through all his matches, a deserved winner for sure.

Guys, what is up with Djokovic?
Has he taken up an acting career?
He's complaining of being injured, has a sore this and a sore that, is it gamesmanship to
put off his opponents? Its tiring looking at him TBH.

I'm pretty sure Nole is taking some "special medicine". Have you spotted how aggressive he is: he is yelling at his team, at fans etc. It started about a year ago. Approx. at that time he started drinking some strange looking potions his team give him. I was going to a gym for around 10-12 years and I can say that it's typical for peeps taking anabolic steroids/testosterone to have these anger outbursts. Is Nole on steroids now to compensate for his aging body?

Yea, quite possibly although its great to see Ruud get the better of him really. Its
also interesting to see that he is more beatable now, more players are beating him.

I noticed that change in his persona on coure too for about 2 years, very aggressive,
a lot of shouting and giving out.

Its very refreshing to see hoe Sinner acts on court, he is very level headed and is able
to control his emotions. He doesnt take himself overly serious. He understands when
he loses its an opportunity to learn from that, he is very positive.

Nobody noticed Casper Ruud beat Novak Djokovic at this tournament yet?
I noticed this because I watched the match until the end, and this was quite surprising because of the five previous meetings, Casper Ruud couldn't even take a single set, so I predicted that this would be easier than Djokovic's match before he reached the semifinals. Djokovic did not look very fit in the previous match because he had difficulty breathing and he was not used to wearing a hat and this time he always wore a hat, but his progress to the semifinals was much better than last year.

The final between Tsitsipas vs Ruud, this will be an even match and Tsitsipas will get his third Monte Carlo title if he wins, while for Ruud this will be his first master's title, and this year Ruud has reached the final three times in different tournaments, unfortunately, he always loses, and my prediction is that this will be Ruud's first title this year.

Was shocked because in old Novak fashion drops the first set and instantly takes the second being up 4-1.
Then I switched it off saying to myself, here we go again!
But when I checked the score found out he lost to the Norwegian player.

While watching his match yesterday against De Minaur, noticed he was out of breath in the second set and nearly to the brink of collapse. But managed to pull through it to take the set.
If it went to the third and final set for this match, I don't think he would of made it through and probably would of had to retire even if he didn't want to.
Somebody in the tennis chatroom I was in said he was talking some nonsensical things in the interview after the match. This I didn't hear but from the sound of it he was probably babbling on from heat exhaustion.

My deduction would be he was not in full health for this match against Casper thus dropping the final set to be out of the Monte-Carlo Masters in Monaco.

And Tsitsipas is through to the Monte-Carlo final! It looked like Sinner had a thigh injury in the 3rd set though. I hope he gets well soon!

Sinner won again today this time against Rune.
He is back now in top 2 in the ATP leaderboard, he can't be 1 even he win the tournament.

The future of tennis is bright, with Sinner, Rune and Alcaraz, 3 players in top 5ish near 20years of age, impressive.

Did anyone see Tsitsipas v Zverev today? absolutely great match, Tsitsipas was fantastic,
its veen a while that he was this good eventhough in the second set he was up 5-0 but
Zverev caught up to bring the second set to a tie break.

Tsitsipas v Zverev encounter is a modern classic already. Tsitsipas managed to win yesterday, despite apparently losing focus and almost losing the match from a set up and 5:0 in second.

Today one match in the spotlight in Monte-Carlo: Sinner v Rune. Sinner is a heavy favourite in this one but who knows perhaps the Dane will be able to fight back today. Djokovic v de Minaur and Tsitsipas v Khachanov matchups also look promising.
In this round, Tsitsipas almost lost to Zverev, but he really gained confidence and finished everything well even though he was only quite narrowly difference Zverev.
This was quite an interesting match yesterday and apart from that there were also several matches that showed the favorites could finish with win.

For Sinner vs Rune, I think many will make Sinner the favorite and of course this is an easy match for Sinner, he just needs to focus on the match and finish each set faster.
Apart from that, in this quarter-final match it was clear who was the favorite and had the chance to win to advance to the next round.
I myself will follow their match and choose Tsitsipas, Sinner, Djokovic and also Ruud, maybe to finish in the final match we can see Djokovic and Sinner meet again.

It makes sense to try and bet on Rune today - the odds of 6.60 look like good value.
They played once against each other on clay, in last year's Monte Carlo semis, and Rune won in a closely fought match.

Sinner is surely the in-form player at this point in time, but on clay the odds on him shouldn't be so low.
