Youzhny should not be a dog against Nishikori .......Youzhny +115 is a good bet

Unless the russian mob fix is in , I don't see how Nishikori is the favorite here. Nishi is mediocre on grass while Youzhny dominates on this surface and this tournament. I've seen players that had a good clay season start very sluggish when transitioning to grass. Don't get fooled by Nishikori's much higher ranking, the russian is a beast on grass. Youzhny is very comfortable on this surface and he should be the -130 favorite, not the other way around. This line will swing towards Youzhny's way before match time, the +115 is a bonus.

Taking Youzhny for three units......Best of luck.

GL to you Dice.

How much for a unit if you don't mind?

I like Youzhny too.

im on youz as well, thought the same thing, wrong guy favored here imo

It looks like Youznhy was favored at the open, then his price got better.

I guess it's a gift

Some late money came in on Nishikori. We'll see if the steam chasers get bit today.

MagicDiceFlow · 06-12-13, 05:29 AM

Youzhny showed up with some russian knives today. Slicing and dicing Nishikori. His slice backhand is working well on this surface. Throwing Nishi off balanced.

looking good so far. youzhny's serving well

MagicDiceFlow · 06-12-13, 05:34 AM

Wow 5-0 Youzhny......our boy came to play today.

he really looks confident on this surface. nishi though seems very impatient, especially on the longer rallies. youz might win this in straights if he keeps his calm on the 2nd set

MDF, love your work. Sharp. Match is far from over but this post and others during the French show you read the game well.

I dont see how the books are going to hang Youzhny as a dog to Nishi on his best surface grass????? I had to immediately jump on that one and let my boys know. Still got a set to go but looks like Youzhny is continuing his beastly form on this surface.

probably has to do with the fact that you never know which Youzhny will show up, regardless of surface. and it's not like nishi's bad on grass. he actually had a pretty good grass season last year. and oh yeah, ranking probably played a part in the line-setting

Raxxxxxxx!

Shouldn't Japmaster's game suit grass surface perfectly though?

Nishikori's game doesnt blend well with grass. He doesnt have the serve and variety of shots.

Hardcoar · 06-12-13, 09:11 AM

I agree on the serve but other than that his actual game shouldn't be a bad match.

Grats' on the win by the way!
