I need a break from watching that trainwreck.
Current Pinny prices:
P. Kvitova +3.5 -102 +208 Over 21.5 -108 M. Sharapova -3.5 -106 -223 Under 21.5 -102 Under 21.5 -102
I'm not 100% convinced Kvitova will win this one because her serve has ditched her at times throughout the tournament and her ball striking has tapered off this year but I did take her for a small bet on the +4 handicap at Sportingbet just out of spite as I can't stand Sharapova. You never know which version of Kvitova will turn up on the day so for those taking her straight up, fingers crossed it's Petra the Destroyer and not Petra the UE Queen. But as we all know Maria also is prone to service problems from time to time so a lot will depend on how she adjusts her ball toss if it's as windy as it is during the Stosur match.
Mentally I give Sharapova the edge. She never stops backing herself and fighting even if she's behind and that will be a big plus if Kvitova gets the lead. Petra on the other hand can easily lose concentration at any time and start spraying errors everywhere so she'll have to stay 100% focused if she's going to take Maria out on clay today.
