Lol, spot on.

Betting Fokina too. Hopefully clown FAA shows up today.

Really not seeing any matches that I'm looking forward to this week. Maybe FAA, Medvedev if Felix shows up. But Medvedev already thrashed him last week. Other than that I'm just pulling for "I hate tennis" Bublik and old men Murray and Wawrinka.

Players dropping out left and right as if there was a slam next week. No idea what’s going on.

Bublik in the +200 range on a fast indoor court vs. Grigor is one of the strangest lines I’ve seen in a while.

Per Twitter Sinner pulled out with an illness he said he picked up in Rotterdam. So he'll be good to go for Indian Wells. Goffin has a knee injury.

Fabio played his butt off, even with a bum foot. The guy is electric when he is zoned in.

Crazy that Alcaraz was still only a break away from covering -6.5 games.

How about this Fils dude opened +158 and is now -140ish. Wonder if there's some inside info on a Stan injury, or if the market is reacting to Stan playing a couple of long 3-setters.

I thought Coco +600 was worth a shot, but Iga is a wrecking ball right now.

I will probably bite on FAA again today, then chill for a few weeks until March Madness.

This Murray score lol.

Here's a question I never thought I would ask. Will we have to take him seriously in slams at some point going forward?

Yeah, I've been thinking about that, too. He probably doesn't quite have the ability to grind a bunch of five setters anymore to win a major. But, his defense, returning, and hands are still incredible. The guy is a true pro.

Imagine this for a story.



But seriously how many current players can you say are definitively better than Murray at full strength on grass? 1?

Lehecka with the 5-4, 40-0 choke on serve.

Sitting on Bublik 22/1 to win the tourney. Sinner withdrawal was nice but this Hurka Durka keeps pulling wins out of his arse.

Still stunned. 0/2 MPs at 5-3*, 0/3 MPs at 5*-4. Looked like something popped in Murray's ankle in the TB, then he fires off an ace (that Jiri should have challenged), and Jiri hits a gimme winner wide to lose the match.

I'd love to know if a few freaks out there bet live on Murray down triple match point on return.

All I could find. That's pretty terrible if that's where it topped out. I would want like at least 50/1 in a situation like that.

I think Buble just fought off a couple of MPs to win.

Maybe Felix is finally getting over some mental humps.

Just noticed Alcaraz is playing Dusan again.

ETA: Spoke too soon

He played well. He is better than most guys at taking advantage of Medvedev and Rafa's absurd return position. He just didn't get it done on the set points. The first serve on the one on his serve was a little tight.

Fils was a pubic hair or two away from being down 0-2 and now he's up 5-1.

Took some Norrie +165 after losing the first set.

Might be holding my nose and playing Dusan +590.
