.......... tennis of course.
French Open has reached the quarter final stage today and I have a view on two matches. Svetlana Kuznetsova is my choice to defeat, in form Dinara Safina, to my mind she should be a strong favourite, yet the bookmakers are finding it hard to seperate them. Kuznetsova is a year younger but has far more experience and importantly, already has a grand slam title under her belt. This is the furthest Safina has ever gone in a grand slam, she was 5-1 down in the final set against Sharapova in the last round and managed to turn it around. That says a lot about her fighting spirit but she was being outplayed to be in that position in the first place. Feel that all the pressure is on her today.
The winner will meet either Venus Williams or Vaidisova in the semis, so this is a golden oppotunity to reach the final. Therefore, will also try a little outright each way bet too, the place odds mean we have 4.33 to reach the final and I make Svetlana odds on, whoever she meets in the semis, so this is value.
Strongly feel that the Hingis- Clijsters match will go the distance, "over" games can be backed, but I prefer to take both to win 2-1 in sets, which gives us odds against. These two match up well, neither will give up and last three meetings have gone to a third set.
2.5 points Kuznetsova 1.99 betfair
1 point each way Kuznetsova 10-1 1/3 1.2. hills/ blue square
2 points Hingis 2-1 sets 4.6 betfair
2.5 points Clijsters 2-1 sets 4.1 betfair
Good Luck.
