TennisBabe's '10 Picks

**EaglesPhan36** · 08-31-10, 12:03 PM

In reading around the net, quite a few people think Groth has a legit shot today. Not sure myself seeing how bad she got whipped by Li in the last match in Montreal, but with Maria's serve & whatever is up with her foot ... you never know.

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 12:08 PM

Maria has to prove she is healthy. Groth is a dangerous opponent especially if Sharapova is not 100% and her DFs start kicking in

**shari91** · 08-31-10, 12:10 PM

Well, I posted in my thread that I wanted to take Groth with the handicap or at least the over so now that you've jumped on her, I'll do it too.

Nice to see you back.

I think Troicki gives Djokovic a real match today. Djokovic hates these conditions and even though he leads the H2H Troicki has played him tough. No way Troicki should be +600

**Mikail** · 08-31-10, 12:33 PM

TB do ya think James Blake loses today?

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 12:36 PM

I think he wins but no way am I playing him at that price

gl today TennisBabe!

you mentioned Sharapova might have problems with Groth, is this worth a small play maybe?

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 01:56 PM

Yes I made a play on it.

Groth @ 10.0 on betfair right now ...

**Mitch Buchannon** · 08-31-10, 02:45 PM

that's definitely not the 'late money' anyone should be worried about

**ukbsktbll** · 08-31-10, 02:52 PM

Djokovic struggling

**Genotime** · 08-31-10, 05:12 PM

Groth!

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 05:15 PM

Still early. Just keep it up though!

**speedy** · 08-31-10, 05:18 PM

go groth

**keijo32** · 08-31-10, 05:31 PM

Wow a total choke by Groth

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 05:32 PM

So close from set 1, yet so far

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 05:32 PM

I wouldn't call that a choke. Up 5-0 and losing the set would be a choke, not up a break in WTA

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 05:37 PM

One down, one very long to do!

**keijo32** · 08-31-10, 05:38 PM

Just her nerves,that's all it was but we got the set

Looks like Brands is not coming through today

**Goat Milk** · 08-31-10, 05:42 PM

Looking decent for you but even 1 set down, its hard to see Sharapova not battling back, especially at the Open. Groth needs to continue take her chances and not pull back. not just play defense this set

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 05:42 PM

Yea 2 tiebreakers didn't go his way. I can live with that.

As I said...far from over

**Goat Milk** · 08-31-10, 05:45 PM

for sure very far. we will see three sets for sure.

to you

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 05:48 PM

Why is ESPN showing Verdasco-Fognini rather than Sharapova? MORONS

**Goat Milk** · 08-31-10, 05:58 PM

because woman's tennis is a fukkin joke

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 06:01 PM

Verdasco tennis is similar to WTA (double faults)

**Goat Milk** · 08-31-10, 06:15 PM

pova match on espn now

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 08-31-10, 06:16 PM

Amanmurad looking good

had 2 break points and couldn't convert and got broken right away to begin the second

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 08-31-10, 06:20 PM

Yeah spoke too soon duh

**keijo32** · 08-31-10, 06:23 PM

looks like a 3 setter again...goes up 0-30 and just can't keep it going

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 06:28 PM

Danger time

**TennisBabe** · 08-31-10, 06:32 PM

Groth is playing some great tennis! Actually both players are

**keijo32** · 08-31-10, 06:34 PM

never seen her play before but she has the tools to go far,just needs to put it all together
