Whatever you pick today add Ljubicic to beat Horna at $1.25. He is in good form and should have too many weapons for Horna.

If you are looking for some value you might want to try Sanguinetti to beat Nieminen at $2.45+ and Kiefer over Rochus at $1.70.

I am going to chuck all of those 3 in together in a multi for a dividend of $5.20.

Chela is amazing value to beat Hewitt. The truth is there isn't much between these players but bookies want to make Lleyton as short as possible and as u know, the shorter priced the favourite, the bigger priced the underdog. And 5/1 is too much to turn down on Chela. This should be 1.50-Lleyton/2.40-Chela but bookies are tightasses.


Back Juan Ignacio Chela.

and Federer is too good, he will win so take the 1.50 on offer for him to win this slam.

You are right about Chela mate.

I also think Kohlschreiber is a special to beat Lisnard who has played two very long matches so far this tournament. I think the match is about to start, but if you have time try and get on!!

damn i missed out. :(

i will follow the scores of it though.

Well Kohlschreiber is home, I will be backing up on Schiavone over Dechy which starts after the Kohly v Lisnard match finishes.

The two women played 3 times last year with Schiavone winning in straights sets each time. I've got her at $1.65 and I think that is pretty good value.

Well I hope noone else is on Schiavone, she is playing like a busted ass at the moment - doesn't look like holding her own serve!

female players are as reliable as tim henman. :D

I'm backing chela as well, Pat Rafter said today that the center court surface is really slow, and that won't suit hewitt. It'll be a nice consolation prize if we lose the last Aussie bloke in the tournament (singles anyway). BTW, watch woodbridge get the sh--s when the crowd start going for Navratalova!

Yeah, ridiculous odds on Hewitt when he always chokes around this stage at the Australian Open. I agree Chela shouldn't have been any more than about 3 or 4 dollars.
