Stuttgart, Germany – Gael Monfils and Guillermo Garcia-Lopez highlight second round, tennis-betting action at BetUS Sportsbook as the Mercedes Cup looks ahead to fashioning its quarterfinal line-up.
Monfils is set to take on Pablo Andujar while Garcia-Lopez takes on home favourite Florian Mayer.
London, England – Novak Djokovic is set to collide with Xavier Malisse for a spot in the AEGON Championships quarters on Thursday when the third round of the tournament gets underway. BetUS bookies have released a whole slew of tennis betting action on their matchup but before we get to that, here are a few random thoughts on the Serbian starlet to consider.
World No.3 Novak Djokovic is…
Madrid, Spain – Roger Federer was unceremoniously dumped from the Rome Masters two weeks ago by an unassuming Ernests Gulbis.
In the second Masters in as many weeks, Federer will get his second shot at the Latvian upstart because the pair are set to collide in the Madrid Open quarters – in what will be the marquee billing of the night and the premier tennis wagering ticket at…
Madrid, Spain – Andy Murray is through to his first quarterfinal in the European clay-court swing at the Madrid Masters, the timing of which – a week ahead of the French Open – would appear to be fortuitous and seemingly lend his odds in the outright betting market to win the French Open value.
Belgrade, Serbia – John Isner is set to kick-start his Serbia Open campaign on Thursday against Josselin Ouanna. Isner is appearing in his second, European clay-court event of the season after a second round appearance at the Rome Masters. He enters the draw as the second seed, behind Novak Djokovic, the defending champion and part owner of the event (the Serbia Open is a Djokovic family…
Rome, Italy – Ernests Gulbis beat Roger Federer in the second round of the Internazionali BNL d’Italia earlier this week, and importantly, he made the huge upset count by negotiating a path all the way to the quarterfinals.
Monte Carlo, Monaco – Croatians Marin Cilic and Ivan Ljubicic are set to bid for a spot in the Monte Carlo Rolex Masters on Thursday. Each takes on a Spaniard in the last 16 – Albert Montanes and David Ferrer, respectively.
Miami, Florida – Kim Clijsters is one of three Belgians to have made the quarterfinals of the Sony Ericsson Open and she is a match win away from the semis. The other two are Yanina Wickmayer and recently returned Justine Henin, the latter would be a potential semi-final opponent for Clijsters assuming she, Clijsters survives Samantha Stosur in the quarters on Wednesday and similarly, Henin…
Indian Wells, California – Jelena Jankovic and Alisa Kleybanova will feature in late action at the BNP Paribas Open as the pair vies for a spot in the quarterfinals. Jankovic is after an unconvincing performance against Sara Errani in the third round – heck an unconvincing season to date, if you ask me.
Monterrey, Mexico – The WTA Monterrey Open has reached the quarters and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova has come through as I had expected. She was my dark horse pick for the tournament; so far, so good.
Pavlyuchenkova’s quarterfinal appointment is with Klara Zakopalova, another underdog to have punched above her weight class in this tournament.
