Any one following Wimbledon
I think the 15 year old coco guff has met her match today but good luck to her
Ive had a few quid on Serena Williams to win the ladies and Rafa Nadal to win the mens .
Any opinions from any other members ?

I'm your huckleberry Mr. Horse. I'm watching and wagering right now! Barty is looking good against the American Riske. I'm trying to decide on Coco and Halep. Halep is favored at about 5-1. I really like Halep but the 15 year old seems destined. I think Serena may make it into the next round but then she may face coco. Could Coco possibly knock out BOTH Williams sisters? Chrisy's head would explode!
On the men's side I have a few quids myself on Roger. The Joker will be tough.

Women's tennis is impossible to figure. There is very little consistency in the majors. Riske got the tennis strategy guru(Craig O'Shannessy) on her team prior to the match today but I didn't pull the trigger. I actually considered playing her for that reason alone.No clue if it made the difference but it sure didn't hurt.
Djoker has such an easy path on paper to the finals while Federer/Nadal likely have to face each other in the semi's. All things being equal Djokovic would be the favorite over either of them but if they stretch each other out on Friday it adds a little to his advantage.

#1 UPSET! American Riske just beat Barty to reach the round of 16. Nadal taking the court now vs. Sousa. Not seeing an upset here. Wagering for me gets easier as we progress as the huge numbers on the favorites level out. You may be think, no way will Nadal lose to this unknown. But there is always The Cooler Effect!

I just have a feeling about Roger Fed. He came back to play on the clay in France which tells me he's confident he's healthy. He obviosly can win on the grass and he'll have the crowd behind him I expect...
