    Oh, so you mean "highest ranked teenager"... That is well defined and absolutely correct!

    Sorry your bet lost. Stephens is so unpredictable and Svitolina really upped her game from what I've seen her do on clay.

    I disagree with theory "never bet this or that player"... It is all about the different situations and match ups. MagicDiceFlow probably misjudged the situation here, a little bit, but hey, nobody can win them all... All of us lose bets. Key is to learn something from those loses and then use that knowledge in future...

    regarding your second play, I digg Petko... She is not in best form at the moment, but she never really had problems against those "moonball" players. Maybe she can even do it in straight, or -4 spread...

    Even though Petko is having a mediocre 2014, I still like her on clay much better than hardcourts. She is a much more confident player on clay.

    As for the Errani/Bertens match.....Bertens just retired after the first set completed. I have been watching this match she didnt look hurt. She just quit after having 2-0 lead and Errani came back on her to take the set 6-3. She cant take all that running around and Errani getting to every ball.



    Sweet, now just waiting on Petko.

    Betting Stephens has been suicide for over a year now, she has trouble with any ranked player in top 50 or even 75. She has little value anymore.

First 12
