Rybakina vs Bouzkova (Approx 10:00pm AEST) I saw exactly what I hoped to see from Elena Rybakina in round 1, to the point where I am comfortable backing her in here with confidence again in round 2.  The world number 18 was utterly dominant against … Continue readingWTA Rome Preview: Rybakina vs Bouzkova

Coric vs Travaglia (Approx 08:30pm AEST) This play follows on from my selection on Garin the other day against Coric. Overall, I felt that Garin lost that match more than Coric won it. As far as plays go over the last couple of weeks, that … Continue readingATP Rome Preview: Coric vs Travaglia

Whilst there are too many unknown factors to get involved in this match myself, I think this looks to be a “no bet” situation for Danka Kovinic. Far too much has been read into the win of Kovinic over Julia Goerges, who was making her … Continue readingWTA Rome Preview: Bencic vs Kovinic

No video today, however here is the results matrix for September 15 To summarise: Martinez, although down a break early in set 2, felt like the right play rewarded with the correct result. The game handicap closed at -4 games, which was a push, so … Continue readingResults Matrix – September 15

This match originally stood out to me as a strong play for Putintseva at the -4 game handicap, however on looking into this match a little further I did have a couple of small concerns, even with the form of Rebecca Peterson. The form of … Continue readingWTA Rome Preview: Putintseva vs Peterson

Begu vs Cocciaretto (Approx 08:30pm AEST) Considering I have Begu on upset alert in this one, the thought of having the young Italian with a 3 game handicap at $2 odds, and $2.50+ for the outright win, is quite appealing.  The form of Irina-Camelia Begu … Continue readingWTA Rome Preview: Begu vs Cocciaretto

Pera vs Kuznetsova (Approx 10:00pm AEST) Alexander and I discussed this one on our show the other day, so I won’t go into too much detail here. I think we have seen a regression in the game of Kuznetsova on clay over the last 18 … Continue readingWTA Rome Preview: Pera vs Kuznetsova

Struff vs Coria (Approx 07:30pm AEST) First look at this one had me leaning towards the total here being a touch high. Further research has allowed me to confirm that.  Whilst it is easy to look at the win from Coria over Dzumhur yesterday, it … Continue readingATP Rome Preview: Struff vs Coria

Querrey vs Martinez (Approx 09:00pm AEST) When you look at the clay form of Pedro Martinez, his progression through the rankings to the edge of the Top 100, and the fact Sam Querrey has had incredibly limited success of late on European clay, there is … Continue readingATP Rome Preview: Querrey vs Martinez

It would be a little silly of me to introduce a matrix focusing on making the right play the majority of the time, and then back that up by taking Daria Kasatkina at the minus game handicap. However… I did want to write about this … Continue readingWTA Rome Preview: Zvonareva vs Kasatkina
