Same old question .......
...... today, Amelie Mauresmo has the game to win Wimbledon, but will her nerve hold? Under pressure it looks more like she is trying to serve cannon balls, almost impossible to get one over the net. Henin-Hardenne is in good form and a worthy favourite, but at 1.48 tops, I don't think so.
Not convinced about the Belgian's serve actually, too many double faults and they are increasing, too few second service points won and they are decreasing.
This will be very good in parts and very scrappy in others, with little in between. Amelie WILL get nervous and will need a little luck at key moments, but it is not everyday that you can back the world number one, serving 80% first serves at up to 120mph on grass, with the best volley in the tournament, at 2/1 plus.
HH leads the h2h 5-4, 2-1 on clay, 3-3 on hard courts, this is their first meeting on grass, sure that Justine will have the better night's sleep, but in a big weekend for French sport, Mauresmo can give Les Bleus a boost by becoming the first French woman to win for 80 years.
The odds dictate the bet really, at 3.05 on Betfair, she is the only possible option.
4 points Mauresmo 3.05 betfair.
Good Luck.
