    I'd guess -200 to -220, the former was around the odds when they were last meant to meet on hard court, and Lisicki might get a slight lift for grass.

    Here, it's not that Lisicki didn't have the talent to beat Serena, but Serena had dominated almost every match from the French Open through her last match prior to Lisicki today. 34 match win streak.

    Soderling was able to follow up his win and made the Finals before getting blown out by Federer. I do think he had a much easier opponent the following round in Davydenko than Lisicki has in Kanepi.

    The interesting factor though is that Lisicki is now in the favorite's spot, not the underdog spot that she relishes. To me, that gives someone like Kanepi something to motivate themselves now. I can beat the girl who beat Serena. This one and Li-Radwanksa to me are the two QFs that should be really good.

    The biggest thing is that all the girls can see themself winning Fukking wimbledon now when Serena isent around

    the theory didnt pan out as I thought with LiSICKi

    eagle did know that Sabine wasnt a flash in the pan like the other let-down spots though

    If the theory worked 100% of the time we'd all be millionaires. I started to get worried when I saw every man and his dog on Kanepi as the underdog ...

    Anyways, hopefully people now abandon the let down angle and I'll go back to making my plays privately

    I don't know. This applies to tennis, but does it apply to WTA?
