Best number I can find on Novak is +125, which is strange to me considering he still has to win 2 matches just to reach the final.
This appears to suggest that he will be a favorite of around -150 if he faces Rafa in the final.

Tsitsi up a couple of sets right now.

Strange family.
So in Hamburg Rublev was favored in the final and won. A week and a half later Shitsi is -175 and runs through him like nothing. The lines give you the answer sometimes.

Head Busta serving for the 1st
ETA: And he takes it.
Joker made 40% 1st serves and had 3 DF. Would imagine this turns around quickly if he's 100%.

Yeah that was my thought during the first set, and it got even stronger watching Sinner go up 3-1 in the 2nd. He just doesn't have the ability to flatten out his shots and hit winners in these conditions. I think his best chance is to go old-school Rafa and lock down and play defense, but I don't know if his body can handle that
Novak has always been able to take his game to a place where Rafa can just do nothing with it. Though he's only beaten him once at RG, he's actually gone to that "place" in at least one of the losses, but then got distracted while Rafa stayed dialed in.
Under these conditions, and with the way Novak is playing, I think we're going to see that top level Novak that's just kryptonite to Rafa.

I think that Diego play is smart, Crack.
Sometimes the square move is the right play

If Rafa beat Diego in 3, and Shitsy pushes Novak to 5, I would put them at even money.
Otherwise, I'd say Novak -140...give or take.

Unfortunately, I currently have no means of placing bets.
Unless I wanna drive my happy arse to capital one arena (which to be fair, is like a 12 minute drive), but I'm not even sure they have tennis odds there. It's some weird kiosk shite.

I actually think he may have won the year that the rain broke his momentum. Being one of the only 2 guys to defeat him at rg and with the conditions different this year he has to like his chances.

The 2013 semifinal match was one of the best matches I've ever watched.

The odds actually flipped. Not because of anything that happened since then, unless the oddsmakers all of a sudden think the extra day off will greatly help Rafa. I think they were just off in the first place, maybe due to liability on futures bets.
So Rafa will be favored if they meet in the final and Novak will definitely be the play.

Swiatek and Kenin is your women's final.

So what was going on with Collins yesterday?
Posted on 10/8/20 at 12:17 pm to sms151t
I only saw bits and pieces of it on replay last night. She was kind of out of it and yet gutted out the second set. It looked windy and the contrast of blazing light/shadow was weird. I'm guessing she ran out of gas as the end. Kenin is a great combination of problem solver and pure determination.

Jesus Christ.
I'm actually deciding right now if I want to take this douche to win the tournament.
