The tournament is over, I have locked the thread.
it is the Men Final at Wimbledon and Berrettini is playing fantastic.
He was 2-5 down at one stage but he just won the first set on a tie-break: 7-6 (7-4)

Yes!!!, as I have seen what the match will turn out, first set will be critical and luckily Berrettini won via a tie break.
But Djokovic is very compose and we all know that sometimes he dropped the first set and then make the match more exciting by his strong finished.

The game has started already, Berrettini going for a break point game 3 has failed as Novak come back after a 30-0 deficit. Berrettini serving, I do hope that he will hold serve to make the first set very exciting.
I have him winning one set in this finals @3.65. I know that it's going to be very difficult, but the first set will be the biggest test for him.

It seems that Berrettini has found his rhythm, he come back and looking to tie the score at 6-6.
Very exciting game, of course I wanted to see some upsets, LOL, but let's see if he can hold serve and win the game to make it 6-6 and force a decider or tie break.

I got my W on the Barty vs Pliskova
It was easily covered by the second set. Congrats to Barty for winning this year's Wimbledon.
@Juggy777 - Djokovic chances to win are very high, so I would say go for it.
I'm seeing Berrettini though, winning at least a set, over 37.5 might be good bet @1.89. Good luck to all bettors.

Nerves got the better of Barty in the second set but Pliskova being the fighter she is, she stepped up too. I thought there was a part in the middle of the third set where Pliskova could have broken back she made unforced errors and allowed Barty to recover.
Even Tom Cruise was in attendance at Wimbledon today, clapping away with a big smile

If the scores are anything to go by, the second set must have rattled Ash Barty a little and given Karolina Pliskova some incentive to keep going. Then, in the third set, Ash regained her composure and won the game, set and match.
Barty just won the first set 6-3 so it looks like she is on course but Pliskova must let go of teh nerves to stand a chance of getting back in to the match.
So far Ash Barty is powering through the first set against Karolina Pliskova

Wimbledon Ladies Final
Barty vs Pilskova
Barty vs Pilskova
This is going to be an interesting final. Barty is the better all-round player, Pliskova will struggle to win this match so I think I will go for a Barty win. It is a final, anything can happen including an upset. Who do you think will win?
Yes it is a bold statement
Anyway the games today have ended. Barty will meet Pliskova in the women Wimbledon final on Saturday, it is a first Wimbledon final for these women. I think it is obvious on paper without a doubt Barty is favourite to win but Pliskova will put up a good fight:
Barty beat Kerber: 6-3 7-6 (7-3)
Pliskova beat Sabalenka: 5-7 6-4 6-4

^^ That is a bold prediction mate, but I'm sure that anyone who are going to face Djokovic in the finals are going to be huge underdog and it will really cause a stir. Specially in a grand slam, we would be surprised to see him being upset by Berrettini who as far as I can remember is also a good clay player. So let's see if he can get over Hurkacz. His momentum is high after that very impressive win against Federer.
It's gonna be Berrettini vs Djokovic in the finals, odds for Berretinni to win @4.50.
For the women's side, it's Barty is the favorite @1.40. But just like you said, Pliskova didn't come this far just to give up the trophy to Bary, for sure she will put up a good fight. Not sure though is she can upset Barty unless Ash wake up and not feeling well going into the finals.
Djokovic didn't managed to cover the under 33.5 for me. I thought that he can win in 3 sets, which he did, but the score is very close, Shapolavov really gave a good fight and I would say that it is very close that in can go either way. But Djokovic mentally is really above most of the tennis players right now and that's what gives him the edge in winning close matches. I'll take this L.
@TravelMug credits to Shapolavov for stretching Djokovic in all the sets, but he just felt short of defeating Djokovic. Also for the finals I expect Djokovic to win, and I think it’ll be a good idea to wager on him what do you’ll think?.

^^ Good outright bets there @Timelord2067 in the women's side.
Yeh, I'm please with those odds - Ash Barty @ 7.76 and Karolina Pliskova @ 17.00
Either way I'll win. Ash is a home town favourite, but regardless I asked myself who the top three or four players from the previous tournament were and settled on the ones you saw in my post a couple of days ago. Picking three or four enables me to recoupe my outlay and if a longer shot wins, then I'm that much out in front.
Of course we wanted for Pliskova to win with that attractive odds.
On the mens side, this is how my bet looks like:
It's going to be tough, but I'm seeing Djokovic winning in the score 6-4, 6-3 in 3 sets. And then Berrettini by 4 sets win over Hurkacz.

It was very sad to see Federer play like that. It seemed like Federer might have been carrying an injury, it is highly unlikely he lost that match because age caught up with him. Everything went well for Hurkacz in that match it really did but he played at 100% of his capacity whereas it looked like Federer played at 55-65% of his capacity - he just did not look comfortable out there. I think he will go to the US Open and probably get to the quarter-finals again at the very least, anything more would be a fantastic run.
The happiest person in SW19 right now after Hurkacz has to be Djokovic because he did not want to meet Federer in the final but Hurkacz, Shapovalov and Berrettini did not get to the semi-finals to give it up easily. Even if Djokovic beats Shapovalov he will still need to get past Hurkacz or Berrettini.
I think the final will be between Djokovic and Berrettini. I think Berrettini will cause a major upset and win Wimbledon 2021

Just sad to see Federer lost against Hurkacz in this fashion, 0-6 score in the last set? And it was a straight set lost, he was leading in the second set and then suddenly he wasn't able to score and he played poorly. No injuries whatsoever, maybe father time has really caught on Federer and it's evident on this match. And probably this is Roger Federer's last match in Wimbledon.
So it will be Djokovic vs Shapovalov and then Berrettini vs Hurkacz. Djokovic stock for winning this tournanament is very high.

Berrettini and Djokovic are the clear favourites in their respective match.
I think the Hurkacz vs Berrettini is a must see match, for sure this might go for a 5 setter match as both are going hard to reach the Finals for the first time in their career.
Djokovic though, 1.08, Lol, you won't profit ML, might be better to bet on O/U as the odds are much better.
