It's been between +1700-1800 on FanDuel all day. Have to put a token bet at those odds.

Ruud is a terrific athlete with terrible tennis skills imo.

Norrie escapes a scare against Taro Daniel. Currently one of my favorites to win IW.

I'm not really attracted to Pegula, but she seems cool AF. Very down to earth for someone who is worth more than Fed, Nole, and Rafa combined.

That’s pretty much how I would describe her. She’s not ugly but not feminine at all.

I’m trying to find the best way to play this Med match. The alt spreads are interesting. You can get +4.5 games at +230. If he can just get to a breaker in 1 set that would look good.

I’ll be heading there tomorrow. Got some main court night session tickets. I see Iga is already scheduled. Hopefully that Spanish monster too.

Have you seen the Netflix tennis docuseries?

I'll settle for just holding serve once.

Just noticed Stan/Foe are playing Skupski tomorrow. I should bring a Bama hat and heckle him

Funny thing is he’s played there 6 times. The courts haven’t changed so why is he complaining now? He had triple match point for a 3rd-set bagel too so it’s not like he can’t win either.

I’m on 4 dogs today. Paul, Murray, Pera, and Badosa. I’ll be fading FAA in some fashion too. Sucks I won’t be able to access Vegas books.

Played a 2-1 Felix win at +315.

Seems like he'd love the slow courts based on his game.

Seeing everyone on Tommy Paul today (as am I). Playing a high level returned on a slow outdoor court is going to kill Hurkacz.

He has one of the best kick serves in the game too. Maybe 2nd after Alcaraz. It’s almost like a free point when he hits it well because it puts you near the seats and the court is wide open.

Tommy Paul looked done after that 1st set. Twisted his ankle and wasn't moving well.

Almost looks like he was faking it now. He is rolling in this 2nd set 6-2.

On to Set 3! Let's go Tommy!

Yuge break in the 3rd to get up 4-3. This hold would be yuge-r.

TP for my bungole!

Buddy and I degenned a bet on Leylah and Townsend doubles at +365 since we’ll be watching.

He was absolutely GOAT-ing the first five games or so.

Just saw a standard WTA 5-0 lead disappear. It’s a thing in dubs too apparently.

Think I see Foe wearing an old Bullets jersey

Skupski/Koolhof advance via walkover with Tiafoe/Wawrinka pulling out. Guess bayoucracka doesn't get to troll, haha.
