Radwanska is 4-0 lifetime against Petcovic
2-0 last month in 2 tournaments on hard courts...
Any Thoughts???

Very tough to go against radwanska right now...she's too inconsistent and if petkovic doesn't serve and hit her shots (esp forehands) well she will get throttled in this one. Radwanska is very very consistent for the most part and doesn't make many errors at all and plays in such a dynamic manner, forcing much frustration and mistakes from her opponents. Petkovic has been playing great but she's gonna have to b ON the whole match in order to win this...don't think she will win and i'd go with radwanska, if any of them.

Great writeup...So Radwanska -3...at -125 sound good to me...
or do you think playing her straight up at -195 is a lot safer???

I would take the ML, it's a final, Aga has had her issues in the past closing out matches, wouldn't be suprised to see petko sneak a set. H2H is completely lopsided though, I'll hit the ML for fun.

I took Petco. I no longer bet tennis chalk. This match is a coin toss IMO so value with the dog.

yes. coin flip! The H2H can be misleading. Singles rankings are neck to neck and contrary to your belief dogs do win in tennis. Pay attention. You might learn something.

Kid? I'll bet I'm your elder and how do you figure I'm square? You obviously are talking out of your azz right now. Keep betting tennis chalk. You'll be heading out to wire $ to Maria luis fernando often.

lol Nadal was -800 in his match against Murray at one point as well. I'm not saying Petcovic will win but I wouldn't touch Rad at the price offered. Even if she is in good form.

Mikail I wouldn't go as far as calling it a coin flip, I'd say it's 60-40 Aga's way, also factoring in the amount of tennis she's played lately, she may be tired and that does give petko more of a chance but if you've been watching Aga play lately, she's basically a wall that chases down everything, (even more so than usual) petko does generate some pace but I'm not sure if it will be enough to break down the wall.
You are right though, there is value on petko, but these past couple of tourney's chalk has been hitting, i'll bit one last time, even though it's in a parlay.

60/40 is probably more accurate. I concur. Radwasnka has been playing with intensity lately.

Big moment, petko's knee gone, don't think we'll see the petko dance this time round, she'll probably try fight on for a bit but if it was a struggle chasing down all these balls normally doubt she'll want to do more damage with the bung knee, even though it's a final. Hope you use a book that voids retirements mikail.

match must complete. It's only a small play but a retirement is no action.

Yeah, momentum is a funny thing, could've written her off easily after the first few games, knee seems fine.

yes they do that a lot. Now did she wear down Petkovic enough?

Profane you only post when Rad is up. Funny how you disappear when she isn't. Rad should win. She is favored. Right?
