now that the draw is set it looks like kuznetzova and davis are squaring off again for some reason due to the lucky loser rule??? (azarenka and petrova withdrew late so i guess they need bodies to take their spots) kuznetzova -250 davis +175 unless kuznetzova figures something out in the next 24-48 hrs look for a repeat
(you may want to hedge your bet by taking kuznetzova to win 2-1 +250 or davis to win 2-1 +500 since this may go 3 sets again)
and ill go out on a limb and ride riske since she is playing so well atm she should take care of kiki bertens (another qualifier) in the first round
bertens +120 riske -163
didnt get to see much of anyone else when i was there saturday so cant say much for anyone else (although yanina wickmayer is surprisingly bigger than i imagined her to be lol)
