I don't think Wawrinka has lost a service game yet this tournament, I'm surprised everyone seems so hot for Querrey over him here.

Taking Wawrinka for the first set.

**TennisBabe** · 09-07-10, 12:55 PM

Murray broke Wawrinka two maybe three times last round before "choking"

A long match could hamper Wawrinka

**Wulfman14** · 09-07-10, 01:18 PM

Youzhny winner !!!!!! ferrer will lose to verdasco in my opinion. on hard court verdasco will get easier points on his serve. should be interesting match though no doubt but i think verdasco.

**GoldRush7** · 09-07-10, 01:19 PM

wawrinka took first set tie break

**Wulfman14** · 09-07-10, 01:20 PM

wow impressive from wawa. remains calm and unfazed no matter what .... good stuff from the OTHER swiss

**speedy** · 09-07-10, 01:21 PM

very intense set....lets go sam

**gtkid911** · 09-07-10, 01:26 PM

The longer this lasts, the better i feel about my Querry bet

**SRBI** · 09-07-10, 01:26 PM

TennisDude - tell me you like Schiavone today. Because I sure as hell do after watching Venus vs Shahar last round.

Agree with that. I've gone 10+ games for second set and will probably take Querrey for the third set the way its looking.

Although it worried me how fast Sam fell off his serve when under pressure toward the end of the first.

No, Stan won 6-4 in the 5th set.
At the end of the match Querrey looked like the more exhausted of both players, that was the difference in the 5th set.

kanepi better win a set to make zvon a winner...........

**timmyboy34243** · 09-08-10, 02:08 PM

in this match kanepi not a lot better than sharopova at holding serve from the other day.

**Shifty107** · 09-08-10, 11:14 PM

Hey TB. What do you think of Venus as a dog tomorrow? I dont think I can stay away. Stosur was breaking Clijsters with ease but just couldnt hold serve. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

**BET THE HOOK** · 09-09-10, 10:38 AM

TB I am really liking Verdasco as a big dog today. What are your thoughts on that match? I think he has alot of momentum on his side right now and Rafa may get cought looking ahead for a rematch against Roger.

Venus is at a nice price but I just don't see her winning. These two met in March of this year in the Miami final and Clijsters dominated her that match (remember that much like it was yesterday - a very good day

) With that said Clijsters has not been playing as well recently as she was back in March but don't forget up until that finals match Venus was playing lights out that tournament. I don't think Venus wins

Once again I remember their last hard court match like it was yesterday. A 3am thriller in Australia which went 5 sets. Verdasco was playing outstanding back then. Since that match they have met several times on clay and Nadal has wiped the floor with him. I am still looking over this match but my bet will probably be Nadal to win 3-2 sets (maybe 3-1). I think Verdasco on hard courts is good for at least one set, possibly 2, but 3 might be asking too much.

**BET THE HOOK** · 09-09-10, 11:38 AM

I know on paper Nadal should hammer Verdasco but for some reason I really like Verdasco. I have been hitting alot of dogs this tourney(11-5).I may just keep the play small but if it cashes I will hate myself for second guessing.

**TennisBabe** · 09-09-10, 12:35 PM

Nadal is definitely overvalued in this match straight up. Verdasco will give him a tough match I believe and is more than worth his price
