    Shapovalov +2.5
    How do you NOT go with this wonder kid on his own turf?

    Anderson +3
    I've been betting Zverev but he hasn't been overwhelming. Anderson has been playing inspired.

    I agree! In fact I put in one of my square parlays with her and R-Fed. The only thing is that it's at -200 so I'm not going to include it here as a part of my official record due to such odds.

    So it did. Are you familiar with the term "confirmation bias"?

    Yes, quite familiar with it and hold it as a valid concept. However, it doesn't apply to every situation especially in sports because there is another concept called momentum that I believe is in play here. Add to that the confidence that previous success gives a player.

    Looks like play has been suspended for the night. Halep plays tomorrow.

    This square parlay comes through the next day with Halep taking straight sets but won't be counted in my record since I didn't want to put in an easy -200 play to beef up the stats.
