    resoning fernando gonzalez is only -159?

    against some noobie?

    Also a pick I would like to point out is Zakopalova -184
    She is 3-1 against her opponent. Although all 4 of the matches were on clay, zakopalova has had a much better year thus far

    Gonzalez has injury issues. Overall he's lost five of his last seven matches. Would probably be best to pass on him all together. Injuries will catch up to a player fast in these best of five marathon matches

    gonzalez has many reasons he is only a small fav for the 1st round. I would not back him unless in a parlay for small change.

    Hopefully everyone stayed away. Gonzalez retired in the third set

    It would be a push anyway wouldnt it? some books need it to be a complete match to have action...some have action after the 1st 2 sets. They we're tied 1-1 in sets but Gonzalez was down 1-0 in the 3rd set so idk how that would be graded.

    Depends on the book. Most have now changed to one set completed for the bets to stand which is why injured players usually retire after the first set is complete. Some books that still have the older rules have stuck with at least two sets must be completed. Varies from book to book

    did you see Gonzalez's history?

    He hasn't been able to do a thing and this was his second attempted comeback really. It's been ages in tennis terms since he's been 100%.

    nah, the two most popular are "one set completed for action" and "entire match must be completed".

    A number of books void all bets any time there's a retirement.
