It was one of those bad days in the office yesterday as Marin Cilic decided to tank away set 2 before coming back and winning thus failing to cover the spread.
Sam Querrey looked well in control of his match with James Ward after taking the 1st set and then earning a break point in the 1st game of set 2... He missed his chance and played some really passive stuff to lose the set and now we need him to win either 6-0 or 6-1 when the players resume battle tomorrow at 1pm local time.
The bookies have also been lazy and failed to release any handicaps for tournaments at Queens, Birmingham or Copenhagen at the time of writing, so I am sticking to 1 pick for the day.
Halle
Tomas Berdych win vs Victor Troicki: Now Tomas Berdych is not really playing trustworthy tennis at the moment, but I am picking him to win this match as I think his grass court game is being underestimated, or Troicki's is being overestimated.
Berdych has laboured to a couple of wins this week while Troicki's path through the draw has been easier, but I think this is a bad match up for the latter.
Troicki has also failed to perform on grass courts in the past while Berdych has all the tools to be a real threat on the surface as his run to the Wimbledon Final showed last year.
Both have 1 win apiece against one another, both meetings taking place in Indian Wells and the most recent won by Berdych in 2 comfortable sets.
As I mentioned above, I dont really trust Berdych at the moment, but I do think he is the better grass court player and I feel his odds are too high for this match.
MY PICKS: Tomas Berdych win @ 1.83 Pinnacle (2 Units)
Sam Querrey - 4.5 games @ 2.25 (2 Units) Still Running from yesterday
WEEKLY UPDATE: + 6.29 Units (- 2 Units yesterday)
