Yesterday was another wonderful day for the picks and has ensured we will be walking away with a nice chunk of profit from the tournament.
Both picks from the Men's Semi Finals came in as Rafael Nadal came through 3-0 in sets against Andy Murray and Roger Federer ended the winning streak of Novak Djokovic with a 3-1 victory.
While hitting both picks improved the daily units, it was even nicer to see Nadal and Federer reach the Final as I had tipped them as winners of the tournament before it began 2 weeks ago.
Tomas Berdych may have fallen by the wayside, but Nadal and Federer have done me proud.
Now on to the Women's Final Pick:
Francesca Schiavone to win vs Na Li: The bookmakers have essentially listed this as a pick 'em contest between two of the toughest competitors on tour.
Francesca Schiavone has the chance to retain her title from last season, while Na Li will look to go one further than when Runner Up in Australia earlier this year.
The key to the contest will be who can enforce their game plan on the other more effectively. Schiavone looks to play a bit of finesse tennis to pull opponents around the court and break their rhythm, trying her best to not let her opponents see the same ball twice.
Na Li will look to use her penetrating groundstrokes to make it difficult for Schiavone.
Interestingly, the wind should have died down from what it has been like over the last few days and that should make it a little more interesting as a spectacle.
Both players have 2 wins and 2 losses against one another, although Schiavone won their only previous meeting on clay in straight sets here last year.
Na Li has had the more spectacular wins this year to reach this stage, but I just have this feeling the Italian is going to have a little too much guile for the Chinese player and retain her title.
MY PICKS: Francesca Schiavone win @ 2.05 Pinnacle (2 Units)
FRENCH OPEN: + 26.09 Units (+ 4.5 Units Day 13 Men's Semi Finals)
This is my little corner on the net where I can offer my thoughts on a number of sports, while I also make picks from upcoming games. Regular picks are made from the football (soccer), tennis, NFL/College Football and NBA Basketball. I also devote a spot entirely to Manchester United, my first love in life, called 'United Corner' where I express my views on all things concerning this wonderful club. I hope you enjoy your time here.
