    OPRANDI -3 games is a solid bet vs Peng later today

    Oprandi has been a mini beast on clay for the past month. In all of her matches that she's played over the past month, she's an impressive 7-3 vs the spread. In those wins, she's absolutely beasted her opponents in straight sets.

    Peng might be in a letdown spot here with her big win over Stephens yesterday. Even if she was at full strength, its going to be tough to beat the mini clay beast in Oprandi. Keep in mind, Oprandi had pounded Peng not too long ago 6-1 6-3 on clay less than a month ago at Portugal. I expect a similar pounding today.

    I think this is a great spot to take Oprandi on the -3 games line at -110.......best of luck.

    They might be moving this match for tomorrow since Vinci and Hampton are moving at a snail's pace to finish their match. Weather will be nice and sunny tomorrow with no rain forecasted.

    No lights at Brussels, similar to Roland Garros. This match just got rescheduled for tomorrow morning.

    I'm on Peng for a hundy. I think once she's seen her (Oprandi) she'll have better court awareness of Oprandis penchant for drop shots. If she can beat Stephens & Govortsova, I like her chances...

    Those drop shots are incredibly effective against Peng. Due to her double forehand and backhand, her movement gets restricted during those drop shots. Peng also has basically no slice game which is a stroke she'll need to defend on clay.

    Good luck though.

    You would think so wouldn't you?

    However: WTA. WTF?

    Oprandi -3, I don't like it. This might go three sets... I think Peng to win makes more sense, but what do I know?

    The second Peng went for that overhead smash the point was already over.

    Women seem incompatible with smashes, for some reason...

    Oprandi played like crap that third set. Pivotal was that 4th game and she just gave it away to Peng after gaining momentum.
