I don't trust Monfils for shit after last week. He should win easily over Mayer, but everyone seems to assume he is going to show up here motivated all of a sudden and not spraying shots all over the court like he has the past few tournaments. I'd rather watch him go first before I sink any more money into him.

Apparently, Mayer withdrew so Monfils is going to play a lucky loser.Comment -
That oughta be interesting. Lots of times when lucky losers sub in they keep matches close because their opponent prepared for a different style.Comment -
Disagree. Mayer was going to give Monfils some trouble but Kindleman is going to be blown away.Comment -
Murray lost the first set. Not a good start here.
Nice of Tursunov to show up.Wins three games in three sets.Impressive
Bolelli upset as a -200 fav. Nice hit on Andujar Birdrman
Isner wins easily in three sets. Weird that mayer waited till the last second to withdraw from the tournament.Thats going to knock the parlay from a 3 to 2 player parlay and the payout will be crap.Geez
Surprised Lopez lost in three sets getting killed. Wasn't he a -300 favorite?Hopefully none of you had him.
No upsets on the women's side yet today
Very worried about Murray here. I know there is still a long way to go but it's not a good startComment -
Ivanovic down 3-1 in the first set already to Chang and no that is not Michael Chang.Ivanovic is crapComment -
BReak point Gasquet.
Comment -
Ivanovic broke back. It seems that most of us bet Murray here. Honestly I'm not sure why. Everything was pointing towards Gasquet but we went the opposite way.Comment -
I still think Murray wins in the end. Gasquet is a top 10 talent but as far as the mental aspect of tennis he is non-existant.
As this match goes on look for Gasquet to tire. Its a quick turnaround for him after having played all week last week. I don't think he will be able to play like he is now for 4 or 5 sets.Comment -
I have Murray in the semifinal of the sbr contest
I don't see how he is going to turn around things. Gasquet has an advantage in the rallies.Comment -
Nice call on Troicki over Robredo guys.Wins in straight sets.Was a good +160 dog or whatever he wasComment -
Noober I have Murray to go that far as well haha
As soon as Gasquet blows a service game he will have his usual mental breakdown. Problem is right now he is playing so well so his confidence his high.Comment -
Just have to hope Murray doesn't sulk.He wants toComment -
Giraldo about to blow a 2 sets to 0 lead. Have him in the atp bracket advancing of courseComment -
I have Robredo in the quarters so I am pretty much done in the sbr contest
Nishikori completes the comeback. Didn't know he can play on clay.Comment -
I think I had Robredo winning two matches.
Ivanovic rebounded and looks like she is going to win
Clement up a set, another good call by Birdman
Don't really feel good about a tiebreak here for Murray. If Gasquet wins the tiebreak then I might be waving the white flag.Dont' think Murray will come back from 2 sets to 0 down again against Gasquet.Comment -
bp and set point Gasquet.UnbelievableComment -
Murray's first serve is killing him. I think its under 50%Comment -
horrible shot from Murray.Minibreak gasmanComment -
That's the gasman I know. Do that a couple more times pleaseComment -
df murray.Unbelievable. Could not pick a worse time to dfComment -
Murray loses the tiebreak.He is done
Complaining to chair ump after the set about the crowd moving before his service games.
Sulking and complaining = Murray has checked out of the matchComment -
Serves are hurting Murray. He is struggling getting his own serve in. Gasquet's serve is really killing Murray. Even when he doesn't get aced, all he can do is try and get a racket on it which lets Gasquet rip the ball off of Murray's return.Comment -
Yeah no home crowd like at Wimbledon to help him turn it around I don't think. Just hasn't gotten it done on the big points. He gave up two break points and only cashed one of the seven Gasquet has had. Murray is 44% on 1st serve. Gasquet is 54%.Comment -
troicki and andujar banked it for me was really high on andujar......gasquet and clement would complete my 4 dog sweep cmon gasquetComment -
Anyone going big on Stosur?Comment -
I'd never go big on heavy chalk in WTA, but I do like Stosur on this surface a lot. She is in a real tough draw, but I had her coming out of her quarter ahead of Henin. If she serves well and the courts play fast for the next two weeks, she's got a legit shot to be in the semis, at least I think she does.Comment -
Jesus Birdman you are on fire.Nice hits
Murray broken in the third.Its over
Stosur has to be the play today. Still have her to finish off the parlay.Pisses me off that Mayer backed out because my parlay is going to pay hardly anything if it hits as a two player parlayComment -
3 bps Gasquet choke?hahaComment -
nice choke gasquetComment -
clement taking the 3rd set...i love my frenchiesComment -
That blown shot by Gasquet could be the turning point of this matchComment -
Gasquet looks like he is going to die.He needs to win this match in 3 or else Murray will come backComment -
I took he over in that one at 37.5, so looks good so long as they both win a game in the 4th. I think some people are gonna get burned if Clement wins that one. I read around on some other sites about heavy support for Dolgopolov. He had the better form for sure, but as a youngster was difficult to back at such a high price.Comment -
Staco,
One of the reason I took Murray was the fatigue angle, especially after Gasquet cramped up in Nice. I'll shit my pants if Gasquet retires .. but will love it. I knew Murray was not going to tire, was just a question of whether or not he was gonna play like a dirty slut or not.Comment
