    WTA Final, Halep - Ostapenko
    The young prodigy against a veteran who has long been waiting for the opportunity to become a Grand Slam champion.

    Both women played phenomenal tennis for long stretches and some very, very questionable tennis at times as well. With the punch Ostapenko is packing, the only way for Halep to cover -4.5 games handicap is to play a perfect game. This is a 5-7, 7-5, 6-2 match in my mind.

    I will have a wager on the OVER in this one.

    I dont know but i see Halep straights. Halep is class above when Ostapenko opponents. Her game against Pliskova was very quality match

                    Wow, Ostapenko got a freaking net cord to break the serve 4-3...the ball was going to be Out, but that net cord brought the ball back to win the point...
                    What a crucial point to this match...gosh

                        Wtf is this...Halep should have won it long time ago...

                        She didn't even look upset at all...

                        Is she tanking the final for money?

                          Nah this match was 100% legit. Ostapenko over 50 winners.

                            I was half asleep while looking at the live line. But ostapenko was only +130 after dropping the first set.. odd

                                Glad Halep didnt win, dont like her haughty attitude, Ostapenko is a little diva herself though. She'll be horrible for a while after this win which is a good time to fade.

                                    I got money down at +830 and I saw +1100 with my own two eyes, at around 0-3 in the second set.

                                    Betfair charts were showing some money exchanged at +2000 to +2500 and some as high as +4000. She could be +130 up a game in the deciding set... maybe. After losing first set? Around +600+700.

                                      Halep is a pretender.

                                        Simona was like -5000 live in the 2nd set up 3-0. Can't believe a veteran like her lost a match that big. She'll probably never make another final of a grand slam. Well, it kinda of makes up for the Svitolina collapse. She should have lost to her earlier.

                                          I do believe this final and result was a set up...she possibly received much more money than winning that slam

                                            halep will never win a major

                                            vika, serena, sharapova, kvitova all out of the game but will be back

                                            such a choke against a nobody 20 year old

                                            shows you how trash the WTA is right now

                                                Great point. I didn't back her at +2000 in that match, down 1-5 in the second set. I was smarter this time fading her at nearly +900, up 3-0 in the second. Energy shifts and f-up potential in her matches are just phenomenal.

                                                  David Cahill is quietly shaking his head in disgust. Has he tried hypnosis yet?

                                                      I think Ostapenko was like 100 or 150-1 to win this before French Started..

                                                        I can't really believe this final was not fixed(money could do everything, who knows)...just saying
                                                        I just wish Halep will not ever have any chance to go into a Slam final again after this French Open drama

                                                        but it is Tennis, individual sport...we need to get used to this...
                                                        Ostapenko also came back to win from 1 set down against Wozniacki, Stosur as well as Chirico
