Serena Lost...

Sharapova is likely to get blasted off the court. She's got absolutely no answer for Venus' power at this particular juncture.

Serena rarely plays hard in these tourneys

she uses it as practice

While I agree with Lou about the dynamics, this matchup is closer than the moneyline suggests. Sharapova has beaten Venus everytime they've matched up on the hard court and if Maria was even close to her old fitness level I'd be all over her like a drowning man to a life preserver. The head to head is what keeps me from backing Venus and making this match a no-play.

Shh and Scholar, you guys like Haas to kill Safin?

Absolutely, Milfy. I'd actually use the word kill, too. I have Haas on the ML and the handicap, I think he covers the four games with ease, this is a 62 63 match waiting to happen.
