Wimbledon 2014
My attentions have been drawn to a Women's 3rd Round match due to be played on Saturday
Ana Ivanovic vs Princess Sabine
Ivanovic is quite a short price - 1.53 Max with Bookies, 1.54 BF
However, Lisicki is a shorter price than Ivanovic to win the tournament!
I'm happy with Ivanovic being slight favourite, as she's playing well and won Birmingham 2 weeks ago. But, this is Wimbledon, and Lisicki seems to find a new level every year.
I reckon this will get Centre Court billing and Sabine usually finds inspiration from that, wheras Ivanovic can be very ropey, including losing to Bouchard on that court last year
I'm not predicting a Lisicki win, but I am predicting a very close match and I find it impossible to believe that 1.54 is the highest price you'll get on Ivanovic before or during the match

Just as I thought, the market totally misread the Ivanovic vs Lisicki match
I'm absolutely baffled how so many big tennis traders could write Lisicki off at Wimbledon against someone as flakey as Ivanovic

There is some stuff on this weeks BBC Click about the data and how it is collected and used at Wimbledon that may be of interest.
Kyrgios v Nadal. Go Kyrgios.
Ok. Ok. I have just now realised I was watching a replay. Still I've been on holiday to a resort with no tv and only just arrived home. Yes it had wifi literally the only thing I did each day was set up racing automation.
