Safina vs Sharapova was pretty much 50/50 match with bookies. Safina jumped at 1.926 with Pinnacle.


I don't price ladies matches, as the workload is enough with the mens for 48 weeks of the year. Although on that front I do watch a bit of it and will be taking on Jankovic from here on in (although dunno if the qualifier can do her in), as she just seems to lose it when deep in matches and has arm and shoulder problems - although all those injury time outs could be a mental edge ploy - the arm/shoulder problems didn't stop her from winning the other night but she did blow a 5-1 lead against a similarly injured Radwanska to fall over the line 7-6 in the second set. 4.0+ Suarez-Navarro will do me for a small play, but if she does win tonight it will be in the Semis where I'll take her on with a vengence.

The other Quarter Final tonight sees Ivanovic attempting to improve on her 22 win 6 loss record to lefties (amazingly of those 6 losses Schnyder has 4 of them, but hasn't beaten Ivanovic in their last 3 matches). Reckon she'll be the one through to the Final from that part of the draw (has a 6-1 H2H record against fellow Serb Jankovic) and have backed her outright at the 3.15 currently on offer, thinking there is no way she'll be a black a white price in the Final and I could back her opponent to cover my initial stake.

Cheers
