Not sure if anyone has seen this, but Andy Murray has lost his wedding ring. He normally loops it into the laces of his shoes when he's playing... but now he has had the shoes stolen, with wedding ring still attached. I hope he gets it back. Presumably he'll offer some sort of reward to encourage the thief whoever "finds" it to return it.

Perhaps this might influence his chances of winning his first match at the tournament? Surely there will be some psychological effect.

I think the effect will be minimal. Murray is professional enough to give this a place when playing. His first match is against Mannarino and Murray should be able to win this in 2 sets.

 

@aoluain this point has been discussed here a while ago that there’s no fixed champion in women tennis, and hence wagering on it become very difficult, I can’t find the post as it’s buried but those who discussed on this point post regularly in this thread, so I’m sure that they’ll share their opinions once again.


I was one of the guys who mentioned this. I think that nobody of the current Women tennis players is strong enough to really dominate the field and win a lot of grandslams similar to what S. Williams has done.

Indian Wells in women's sections has started, I put bets on S. Stephens and I thought it would be an easy match for her but Watson gave a tight fight especially in the first and second sets it's good that the last set she can finish easily, after winning the US Open 2017 she looks easy to lose.
In women' sections, many young players have won Grand Slams and it was only once after that they became very easy to lose in the early stages of the tournament.

I haven't seen and bet yet on Indian Wells, the good thing is that Sloan won the match, not sure if she covers the handicap though.  Here game though dip a bit in the last couple of years, and we have Coco Gauff as well to carry the flag for the US.

And if you are going to look at it, most of the winners are like one hit wonders, after winning a Grand Slams, they become inconsistent and only few women remain on top after winning a majors.

I watched the Tie break in the first set and watched the second set, it was close
and I thought Watson would win. Stephens to me always looks uninterested so I
didnt have a bet on this match.

From my post earlier on I had overlooked Coco Gauff, I think she is still developing
and could definitely be a name for the future in the womens tournaments.

For today I have 2 bets in, I have Vondrousova to beat Golubic and on the mens
side Tommy Paul to beat F.Lopez.

Looking forward to the big names entering the tournament.

Also in this match she misunderstood her opponent’s strength, and that’s classic example of success getting to ones head, and if she wants to become a big champion then she needs to play regularly with a champions mentality.

And this is what Coco Gauff advise to her fellow teenager:

Quote
"The best thing I could [say], and I'm sure she's probably heard it, is to set time aside from the phone," said Gauff ahead the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells.

https://www.eurosport.com/tennis/wta-indian-wells-ca/2021/indian-wells-2021-coco-gauff-warns-fellow-teenage-tennis-star-emma-raducanu-to-stay-off-overwhelming_sto8573505/story.shtml

For sure as we are in the social media era, and as teenagers, Raducanu might find more time checking in his twitter or facebook account. So it could a distraction. They really need to be really smart specially in the case of Raducanu because all attention are on her now after winning the US Open. So there is pressure around here going forward.

That is the thing what i dont like about a women tennis is that the best players keep changing every month.Only Barty is holding currently the first place,but in matter of tournaments we keep seeing new winners and newcomers.No body expect that Raducanu to even come to the third round let alone win the US Open and on next tournament we will probobly have a new tennis player win the tournament or someone that isnt at all in the top 10.
Ash Barty has had a varied game play this year pulling out of one tournament to then go on to win at Wimbledon and has again pulled out just in the last week.

I saw an interview with Barty after Wimbledon on an Australian network and she spoke of coming home in October or November as she would have at that time been on the playing circuit for seven or wight months.  Perhaps she's just tired of traveling in the Covid Era?

That could be the case actually. Barty hasn't played recently and players like Raducanu popped off. We even heard the news that the 2nd ranked player Sabalenka won't be playing the next tournament. Don't know what the case is, because a few years back it was only Serena and Maria Sharapova everywhere. It's also a good sign that new players are stepping up, but also a matter of fact that some players (not many though) get lost over time.


Raducanu only popped off in this tournament. Maybe she got lucky or played the best she will ever do. We will see in the next tournaments that she plays if she can win the next tournament or reach even the final. Well its a good sign that new players are popping up but this is currently all over the place.

I agree, we really need to wait for Raducanu if she really has what it takes to be the new face of women's tennis. As Osaka lost the hype already, and many ladies getting injured, Raducanu and Fernandez suddenly pops up.

We would like to see them going against those top seeded to really gauge their performance and could overtake and goes up in the rankings. Indian Wells will be a good test although there are a lot who has pull out as well.

In the indiana wells women tournament i am interested in how raducanu performance is gonna be after that perfect run in us open with no set droped, because a lot of times when young talents apear and perform well they soon disapear from the scene, the question is will we see another osaka and barty or the pressure will be too much for raducanu.
We will see, hopefully she will not be a one hit wonder in tennis, we need more consistency in the ladies side. Like the previous era's wherein the women are more likely the men, top seeds in grand slams. Osaka has drop off the top 10 now, after winning the US Open in 2018.

Hopefully this will not be case for Raducanu or even Fernandez, those two are the future of women's tennis, not even 20 years old but playing like a veteran and very tough mentally.

Both Raducanu and Leylah Fernandez are extremely talented players and they have proved themselves in the last tournament. Raducanu even beat some of the top ranked women in tennis rankings. I hope that Raducanu can cope with the pressure and the expectations from the fans and people. Hope that she won't collapse under pressure and will be the next big thing in women's tennis.

Well done, its always satisfying to start winning again and clawing back lost Satoshi's.

I have started my Indian Wells betting on the womens side with Anisimova to beat Scott
and Rogers to beat Kalinina.

I'll make a start with the mens side on tomorrows matches when the qualifiers are over.

Ballsy to say the least for those guys,  Grin. Anyhow, that's gambling for us, including tennis more risk bigger rewards.

I'm just looking at the Indian Wells, there's already some name names, as far as the match.

Delbonis vs Nishioka and Fokina vs Johnson.

But there are still qualifying matches, maybe I could also pick up some wins and few satoshis.

Even though tennis is one of my favorite sports to bet I got a reminder how unfulfilling it can get today. So I played a ticket with 4 matches. First it started by Zapata forfeiting, then there was rain break and then Andreev forfeited as well. Ok those two came handy since my choices were doing badly. Then Griekspoor also won with forfeit which left my ticket on one live match. At least that one managed to barely scrape onto over so I got little something for my trouble Smiley

Same here bud, I went on a traditional based casino's, lost my capital very quick, damn what a I day. So just looking at the Indian Wells, and thinking, what the heck, bad day? let me try my luck on my favorite sports to at least get back some,



At least recoup some of my early losses on that casinos. Probably stay home and just bet online.  Grin

I do find it difficult betting on tennis, but also on individual sports in general. Team sports seem to be a little bit more predictable, I suppose because any individual superb or terrible performances or injuries tend to be smoothed out across the team as a whole. If a footballer has a bad game, that's only 10% of your outfield players, the other 90% can compensate. If a tennis player plays badly, they've lost.

Parting ways with your coach who helps you win the U.S Open bringing you to a
#1 UK ranking and not have someone to take his place.
It was a temporary arrangement, specifically to cover the US Open. He didn't want to continue after that point in any case.


''Britain's US Open champion Emma Raducanu has been given a wildcard into the main draw of the WTA 1000 event.''

Will Raducanu with the new coach and under the burden of high expectations after winning the GS title continue with good games and victories?

It will be interesting to see how she copes. As I am from the UK, I hope she continues to win Smiley. Certainly there is a weight of expectation on her now, but I believe she is seeded (despite being a wildcard), which should in theory give her an easy-ish match to start with to settle any nerves.

Well, the draw is out now. Raducanu as a seed has a bye in the first round. Second round she faces an unseeded opponent, either Osorio Serrano or Sasnovich... and then, if she wins... potentially Halep in the third round, which is obviously a difficult proposition.
