04-30-24 | Hubert Hurkacz +105 v. Taylor Fritz | 0-2 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 54 m | Show | |
ATP Madrid (Tennis) - Hubert Hurkacz/Taylor Fritz . According to the oddsmakers, this should be a very competitive match. Both guys have looked strong in this tournament so far & both are looking to make the Quarter Finals with a win here. Looking at Taylor Fritz, he's won both his matches quite easily. Don't get me wrong, he is the #13 player in the world for a reason. However, he is much better on the "hard court", rather than on clay. In fact, he's just 9-6 in his over the past year when playing on this surface (yes, 9-6 sounds alright, but it isn't a great record considering he's a top player.) On the other hand, Hubert Hurkacz loves to play on the clay court. He's actually ahead of Fritz in the world rankings as he currently ranks #9. He's won his first two games quite easily as well. Since this time last year, he's an awesome 10-3 on this surface. Hurkacz is getting tremendous value here (as a slight underdog) as the more comfortable player on clay - as well as the higher seeded player. Despite being down 2-1 in the all-time meetings between these two, I've got the Polish athlete on Tuesday morning. Match Prediction: 6-3 . 7-6 Hurkacz . |

04-29-24 | Jakub Mensik v. Felix Auger-Aliassime -125 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 15 h 55 m | Show | |
ATP Madrid (Tennis) - Jakub Mensik vs Felix Auger Aliassime . He may have slipped in World Rankings over the past year, but Felix Auger Aliassime looks to be playing his best tennis right now. He's coming off an excellent tournament in Munich, where he reached the Quarter-Finals. Now, he's entering this matchup off an awesome 6-0, 6-4 win against #19 seeded Adrian Mannarino. His opponent today, Jakub Mensik is coming off a big win himself. He defeated #9 seed Grigor Dimitrov in a gruelling three set match on Saturday. Having said that, the "gruelling" part of it could be something to watch. Longer matches tend to affect players in their next matches. Especially when they just beat a superior player. I've got the Canadian here, as he's already established himself as a really good player. Match Prediction: 6-4 . 6-4 FAA. |

04-25-24 | Dominik Koepfer v. Roberto Carballes Baena -150 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 50 m | Show | |
ATP Madrid (Tennis) - Dominik Koepfer/Roberto Carballes Baena After starting 2024 off quite slowly, Roberto Carballes Baena has found his stride. Coming into this tournament, he's won six of his last eight matches. The Spanish player will also get to play in front of a home crowd once again with this tournament being played in Spain. Looking at his opponent, Dominik Koepfer has now dropped four consecutive matches. Yes, he may be ranked higher than Carballes Baena in the World Rankings. However, he's not playing well right now. Dominik Koepfer is simply just not as good as the Spanish playing on the clay surface and I believe that we'll see yet another win for the small "home" favorite. Match Prediction: 7-6 . 6-2 Carballes Baena |

04-24-24 | Mirra Andreeva -177 v. Taylor Townsend | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 11 h 17 m | Show | |
WTA Madrid (Tennis) - Mirra Andreeva/Taylor Townsend Considering her age, not many people would expect much from the Russian. However, Mirra Andreeva has already made quite the name for herself. Her run in the Australian Open caught the attention of people from around the world and she's just getting better. Andreeva brings in a tremendous record of 29-13 over the past year. Yes, Townsend has been solid as well - w/ a 26-13 record. However, the American player tends to rely on her serve and can struggle with errors at times. Andreeva is definitely good enough and she's the favorite for a reason. Match Prediction: 6-4 . 6-2 Andreeva |
|||||||
04-20-24 | Sloane Stephens v. Caroline Garcia -120 | 2-0 | Loss | -120 | 1 h 4 m | Show | |
WTA Rouen (Tennis) - Sloane Stephens/Caroline Garcia Both of these women have had similar results so far in this tournament. Winning the first match in three sets and then cruising to straight sets victories in consecutive matches now. Having said that, we should be in for a good matchup. Sloane Stephens is 31yrs of age and always seems to play better on Clay. However, she doesn't really come into the clay tournaments very hot. Yes, she's won three straight, but so has Garcia. In their lone meeting on a clay court, Garcia won in straight sets. Garcia also won the last overall matchup between the two in three sets back in September. I believe that the home crowd will help the French woman pull through in this match and leave victorious. Play on the small favorite here on Saturday in Rouen. Match Prediction: 6-4 . 7-6 Garcia.q |

04-18-24 | Alejandro D Fokina v. Dusan Lajovic +100 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 3 h 23 m | Show | |
ATP Barcelona (Tennis) - Alejandro Davidovich Fokina / Dusan Lajovic Alejandro Davidovich Fokina may be the more known tennis player. But, he's definitely struggling right now. He's lost four of his last five matches on tour (not including walkover in 1st rnd) and he isn't all that strong on clay despite being from Spain. As a matter of fact, it's almost been an entire year since he won his last match played on a clay court. Looking at Dusan Lajovic, he loves the clay court. He's been in terrific so far in this tournament winning both of his matches comfortably. Fokina was lucky to get a walkover into this round so he has yet to play in this tournament. When these two have met before, Lajovic has dominated (2-0 - winning both matches in straight sets.) With Lajovic playing well so far, I don't see him losing this match. Expect the Serbian to get the job done on Thursday. Match Prediction: 6-3 . 6-4 Lajovic |

03-25-24 | Carlos Alcaraz -5 v. Gael Monfils | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 7 h 15 m | Show | |
(#8201) Carlos Alcaraz @ (#8202) Gael Monfils - 7:05pm EST Carlos Alcaraz -5.0 (-115) Monflis has done an excellent job in getting here up until this point. Having said that, Alcaraz is playing at a different level right now and is ready for the French Open in May already. Alcaraz won his last match very comfortably in a 6-2, 6-1 win against a fellow Spaniard in Roberto Carballes Baena. This one shouldn't really be close either in my opinion. Monflis dropped a set in his last game and has played in three setters in four of his last five matches. He'll be tired for this one. Expect Alcaraz to get it done rather easily. Match Prediction: 6-3 . 6-1 Alcaraz (good until -5.0 . -125) |

03-12-24 | Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova -140 v. M Kostyuk | 0-2 | Loss | -140 | 7 h 51 m | Show | |
(#8739) Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova @ (#8740) Marta Kostyuk - 4:05pm EST Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova -140 In the past, these two have gone to war in their matches. It was a gruelling 3-6 . 6-4 . 6-3 . win for Kostyuk in the last meeting between the two less than two weeks ago in the San Diego Quarter Finals. Now, in the Indian Wells Rof16, they meet again. This time, I'm backing the Russian as she is playing some of her best tennis right now. Kostyuk has had plenty of time to think about this match with the walkover in the last round. However, I think that it will slow her down a bit considering she took a three day break mid tournament. This play is on Pavlyuchenkova, just to win. Match Prediction: 6-4 . 7-6 Pavlyuchenkova (good until -160) |

02-21-24 | Max Purcell v. Nuno Borges -152 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 8 h 31 m | Show | |
(#8241) Max Purcell @ (#8242) Nuno Borges - 7:30pm EST Nuno Borges -152 Despite the fact that Purcell ranks ahead of Borges by five spots in the ATP rankings, the Portuguese player has been playing some strong tennis as of late. He made the Rof16 in the Australian Open where he knocked off Davidovich Fokina (#23) as well as Dimitrov (#13) before losing to Medvedev (#3.) He was still able to grab a set against the runner up in that match. He also won his first round match pretty easily against Koepfer in this tournament. Purcell played in a battle in his first round matchup against Arnaldi. He's been much more inconsistent. I see Borges taking this one and therefore this is a small play on the 27yr old. Match Prediction: 6-4 . 7-6 Borges (good until -160) |
|||||||
01-30-24 | Anna Blinkova -147 v. Jule Niemeier | 0-2 | Loss | -147 | 6 h 46 m | Show | |
(#8629) Anna Blinkova @ (#8630) Jule Niemeier - 10:05am EST Anna Blinkova -147 After shocking the world by upsetting the #3 ranked player in the world in Elena Rybakina in the Australian Open, Blinkova has made a name for herself. She's playing some great tennis right now and I think that she'll be too much for the German to handle. The Russian has won the only meeting between these two. Look for her to take care of business early in this game. This play is on Blinkova to win. Match Prediction: 6-4 . 6-2 Blinkova (good until -165) |
|||||||
01-24-24 | A Kalinskaya v. Qinwen Zheng -160 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 49 m | Show | |
(#8751) Anna Kalinskaya @ (#8752) Qinwen Zheng - 3:15am EST Qinwen Zheng -160 With Swiatek and Rybakina both out of the tournament, the winner of this match has a terrific chance at making this grand slam final. Zheng has looked phenomenal, and her aggressive hitting should be enough to overwhelm Kalinskaya a bit. The Russian also hits the ball hard, but she's definitely not as experienced in the big tournaments as the #12 ranked player in Zheng. Kalinskaya struggled at times against Stephens. Zheng is much more consistent than Stephens and therefore I expect a very strong performance from the Chinese player. The play is on Zheng to win. (good until -180) |
|||||||
01-17-24 | Tommy Paul -135 v. Jack Draper | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 53 m | Show | |
(#8185) Tommy Paul @ (#8186) Jack Draper - 8:30pm EST Tommy Paul -135 The fact that he's the higher ranked opponent and looked very strong in his R1 win against Barrere, this line is disrespectful for the American. I understand that Draper has been lights out over the past while, but let's not forget that Tommy Paul was a semifinalist in last years Australian Open. Draper just beat Paul in the QuarterFinals in Adelaide, but I believe that the better players take the Grand Slams more serious. It's also a whole different game when playing best-of-three instead of best-of-five like they will today. The play is on the higher ranked player to win. Match Prediction: 6-4, 4-6, 7-6, 6-3 Paul. (good until -160) |
|||||||
01-15-24 | Grigor Dimitrov v. M Fucsovics OVER 35.5 | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 15 m | Show | |
(#8081) Grigor Dimitrov @ (#8082) Marton Fucsovics - 8:30pm EST Total Over 35.5 (-115) Despite Grigor Dimitrov being ranked higher, this very well could be a tough game for him. Fucsovics has had his number in the past and is more than capable of giving the best players a run for their money. It's a tough early round matchup fir the 10 seed, and although I expect him to win, I won't be surprised at all if the Hungarian sends this one to a fifth set. It's a best-of-five set match and that should have Dimitrov worried as Fucsovics loves playing in long games. The play is on the “over” in this first round matchup at the Australian Open 2024. (good until 35.5 -120) |
|||||||
01-14-24 | Yanina Wickmayer v. Varvara Gracheva -160 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 15 h 21 m | Show | |
(#8529) Yanina Wickmayer @ (#8530) Varvara Gracheva - 7:05pm EST Varvara Gracheva -160 Having lost three consecutive matches coming into this tournament, I don't believe that Wickmayer has what it takes to get by the 23yr old in the first round. Gracheva has been much more active over the past year and that should favor her in this matchup. Gracheva started out slowly over her short career so far, but has really picked it up and now poses a threat to anybody in the world. Wickmayer is starting to reach the end and it's not going to be pretty here. The play is on the younger and better player. Match Prediction: 6-4, 6-3 Gracheva. (good until -185) |
|||||||
01-13-24 | Lesia Tsurenko -185 v. Lucia Bronzetti | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |
(#8621) Lesia Tsurenko @ (#8622) Lucia Bronzetti - 7:05pm EST Lesia Tsurenko -185 With the 28th seed in the tournament, the Ukrainian is expected to win this match. She's already beaten Bronzetti in their only meeting against each other and she's ready to make some noise in 2024. Bronzetti already owns a losing 1-2 record in 2024. She may be ranked 56th in the WTA Rankings, but I don't believe she possesses what it takes to knock off Tsurenko in the first round. Tsurenko is much older, and more experienced. I believe she gets it done in the opening match of the Australian Open. Match Prediction: 6-3, 6-2 Tsurenko. (good until -210) |
