TENNIS ROUND UP ........


We have a couple of re-matches in the tennis today.


Amelie Mauresmo and Anna Chakvetadze, meet just one week after their Paris quarter-final, which the Frenchwoman took in two very close sets.


Chakvetadze is playing with a lot of confidence, but it looks like Mauresmo has finally hit top form, she played very well yesterday, seeing off Safina in a little over an hour and is looking to win the tournament for the 3rd time in 5 years.


Mauresmo has won 10 straight matches in Antwerp and two more will earn her a diamond encrusted racquet, for the first 3 time winner, she has her eyes firmly on this prize and should move one step nearer today.


In Marseille, Robin Soderling and Gilles Simon, also meet up again, just a couple of weeks after their battle in Zagreb. That went to 3 close sets, with the serve very much dominating and with few break points, tie breaks decided two sets and something similar looks likely today.


I suggest we lay the Swedish player to win 2-0, which at the odds available, mean that we are backing Simon at 2.25 to take one set, which looks value.


5 points Mauresmo to beat Chakvetadze 1.51 Betfair.

LAY 3 points Soderling to win 2-0 sets 1.80 Betfair ( max exposure 2.40 pts).


Good Luck.
