CrazyL's US OPEN FUTURE pick! A shocker!
The hard courts, the guts, the glory. Tennis is under a big transition right now, it's no longer the age we'd been so accustomed to. It's no longer the world which Roger Federer has a strangehold over. There are new faces winning every other tournament, there's Rafael Nadal in all his might stepping up and winning slams like they're going out of style, talented newcomers upstaging the once untouchable legend who may go down as the greatest to ever step upon the court. This US Open figures to be one of the greatest in recent memory on both the men and womens side as heaps of talented young guns will square off, the only thing standing in anyones way is a tough draw. We as bettors cannot control many elements of tennis, we can't control who wakes up and decides to give it their all, all we can look for is value.
Here's value, staring me right in the face. I'm getting +319 on a guy whose won this very tournament the last four years, a man who has been tried and tested lately, not at his best, back against the wall and going for broke. It's all or nothing right now in his mind, he's been ripped and lambasted by media internationally, his own fans are losing faith in him, when he looks in the mirror he knows he let it all slip away in a third set at Wimbledon over a bit of light. A total crapshoot, his legacy on the line, everywhere he goes there's rumbling behind his back. When he wakes up in the morning he realizes he's NO LONGER number one. Now, he is number two. The pressure is off, nobody expects him to go in with form and blow away the competition, and that my friends, is exactly what I'm going to back him to do at this price.
I'm taking Roger Federer for better or for worse.
Call me Crazy if you want, fade if you like, but that's the play here folks.
