#38Thanks Magic, I definitely think that total is the best wager but I thought it was the best wager for the Del Potro match and Juan couldnt win a set. I think the speed of the surface will be huge, but Ferrer mentally is miles above Murray, mental strength is not just a big factor in the WTA, not to mention physical conditioning. Murray is a basket case when he falls behind at times, how many injuries can a guy suffer?
Baskets, Who is the "Big 4" that you are talking about? I definitely agree with you, Ferrer will never be in the same class as Nadal, Fed, or Djokovic, but who is? The only one I can think of in the top tier of players that Ferrer has a losing record against is Soderling. He has dominated Berdych, has a winning record against Del Potro and Tsonga, and is even with Murray. Look at all these guys number against the big 3.
All I am saying is at this point there should only be a "Big 3" and Ferrer has been more profitable to wager on with the number oddsmakers give him than anyone in these top tier of players.He is small and oddsmakers dont give him credit but look at his numbers, they are incredible. He is like Jimmy Connors, a total fighter but small and doesnt possess a big serve which is so important in the modern game. Maybe Murray will create a big 4 but he hasnt so far.
I would take Ferrer any day over Del Potro, Tsonga, or Berdych and even Murray as well but lets see if Murray can finally win one this year. This is the perfect scenario for Murray.Comment -

#40I wouldnt be huge on anything at this point in the tourney, I like the over in that Murray/Ferrer match and Ferrer +1.5 sets but who knows. Williams maybe huge to win Wimbledon after the way Aza, Radwanska and Kerber looked today but at these later stages its hard to find much value in anything. Azarenkas serve was really poor I thought today. Williams is going to eat her alive on that second serve.Comment -

#42Balco that bet on Ferrer was @ 5Dimes. They offer them every Slam under their futures section. One of my favorite bets to look at .. players to win their quarter instead of winning the whole thing.
The one thing I don't get in this argument is the hammering of how "everyone" struggles against the Big 4. Murray is by far the least dominant of those four. You can find several players with a decent record against him. This isn't the gap you see with Ferrer v. Rafa, Fed or Djokovic. He plays Murray tough and i expect an entertaining match that can go either way. Over 3.5 sets if you have the option seems less worrysome than anything else.Comment -

#44I put a bit on Ferrer. Just like with the Del Po match at least I know he'll fight to help me win my bet. No complaining, no 'injuries' that miraculously heal 2 games later, no pressure from a crowd of Brits... he'll simply play.Comment -

#45I added Ferrer to this parlay. Very nice value on the payout if Ferrer ends up upsetting the heavy public money again, which I believe is possible. Good Luck everyone.

#47On his day Murray is the better player by some distance, however Ferrer is more consistent. Looking at their recent meetings:
For the last 6 weeks Murray has been struggling to find top gear, for whatever reason.2012-06-06 French Open David Ferrer Clay 3:1 » 6:4, 6:7(3), 6:3, 6:2
2011-11-21World Tour Finals London 2011 David Ferrer Hard 2:0 » 6:4, 7:5 2011-10-16 Shanghai 2011 Andy Murray Hard 2:0 » 7:5, 6:4 2011-10-08 Tokyo 2011 Andy Murray Hard 2:0 » 6:2, 6:3
1. Paris - No surprise given the above and it was on clay that Ferrer won
2. London - Murray was injured, don't consider this as a standard game
3. Shanghai - Murray was coming down from his peak but still plenty in reserve to deal with Ferrer.
4. Tokyo - Murray was on the top of his game and destroyed Ferrer, like he did Nadal shortly afterwards.
This game all comes down to Murrays racket, is he going to find his A game or will his B game slip below the consistencey of Ferrer.
I hope Murray losses, he's a prick with his moaning and faking injuries, even the UK public are starting to dislike his behaviour. But on his day hes as good as anyone, problem is he only seems to find top gear towards the end of a season.Comment -

#48I'm saying why the hell is this even relevant lol... we all know Ferrer's worst surface is grass, a small sample size doesn't help your case...Comment -

#49Worst surface is relative. He's top 5 in the world on clay. Of course compared to that grass is his "worse" surface. 32-12 ain't half bad though, think we can all agree on that. I played the over so no real dog in this race, might do some live betting depending on the circumstances. I think this has all the makings of a 5 setter.Comment -

#53I'm saying you keep saying statistically it's his best surface... You must be not thinking straight if you actually think hardcourt/clay ferrer is worse than grass ferrer. I must have just read you wrong earlier because it sounded like you said grass is his best surface...
Also if you want to go back and actually look at who he played on grass, tell me his notable wins forreal. If he beats Murray here, it would be BY FAR his best grass win to date. Winning the dutch tourney right before wimbledon twice doesn't mean that much when he is beating bums.
His only real impressive wins are against JMDP and Gonzo in 06 it looks like, he's beaten Delpo twice btw on grass. Fernando Gonzalez also isn't that good on grass sorta from what I remember.
I'm not trying to troll you btw but saying his record over and over is getting old, actually look at who he's beaten and you will be FAR from impressed.
I argued with good2go2mexico earlier about how Istomin is real good on grass, What I'm trying to say is for Istomin's level his grass skill far exceeds the rest of his game (not including indoor hard). Like Ferrer's grass skill compared to himself overall is miniscule but still stronger than Istomin if you get what I'm sayingComment -

#54I tossed a single bet on Ferrer. With all given circumstances, this was a 50/50 match at best. Even Murray happens to comeback and win this, I'm fine with it. I'll take a coinflip against the bookies at +170 my side......all day long.

That's why I specifically stated the word "statistically". Statistically better has always been and always will mean percentage points better, this goes for records in ALL sports across the board if you follow. Now how you interpret that is up to you. But the stone cold fact is his grass record is indeed better win percentage wise.Comment -
