kerber has most wins this year, she's a much more well-rounded player than arad , doesn't choke easily (today was her worst match).. what can i say, it's your money
|
|
By:
They did make it sound as though it had all been called off for the day. Didn't the umpire even announce on court that the match would resume the next day? I'm not sure they should have been that definite, since they were clearly considering putting the match on CC later on - Radwanska said she was told they might resume later on CC almost as soon as she had walked off the court!

Kerber may well learn from today's salvaged choke. Hopefully that'll put her in good stead for the SF.

By:
cic doesnt choke easly?
did u seen eastborne |
|
By:
of course i did, but she was playing paszek!
|
|
By:
paszek has blown away countless 1.01s in the last month
|
|
By:
and she got that sneaky medical time-out which irritated kerber
|
|
By:
but that's got nothing to do with what we're talking about here.. kerber is the (much) better player even in terms of choking if you like.

rad has 41 wins but rad most tourneys started 2nd round mind you it gives 6 extra wins(most likely)
kerb has 44 whats the difference? rad won 3 titles including premier mand miami, kerb won 2 titles but those stats will not tell you who will win the match for sure bu |
|
By:
I'd say Kerber is weak mentally. And I don't know why but I think it comes from her coach. She battles too much with herself and her doubts than the opponent. I'd make Radwanszka a decent favourite here.

By:
kerber has made an awful lot of progress THIS year. that's how she came to be no 8. arad on the other hand is on the decline. my prediticion however is based on what i have watched both do and kerber is very convincing. as for mentally weak, obviously you haven't watched her
|
|
By:
arad on the other hand is on the decline
what? |
|
By:
but keep it up, better odds for me, tnx and goodnight
|
|
By:
is this the A-Rad that with a final can be no.1?
yet in decline  |
|
By:
Cic. I've seen her quite a lot these last six months. I think she's potentially a very good player. But I do have serious doubts about her psyche but the reason I think her coach is partly to blame is because I'd say it was an easy fault to improve. It's merely my observation and I've no idea whether I'm right or not. It's a matter of opinion.

I'm no Radwanska fan but that's tosh. She's had a fantastic year. |
|
By:
Radwanska has won 6 titles over the last 12 months to the mere 2 of Kerber. And Radwanska has done pretty well once she's got to the final match of tournaments. Kerber, in contrast, is still looking to establish herself as one of the very best. So, yeah, Radwanska has more 'knowledge' of how to unlock these big matches.
Whether that translates into a psychological edge in a Slam SF, though, is another matter. Kerber may well have too much on the court for Rad, and if she can gather confidence from coming through today's match, she could be the one to beat. Radwanska is a clever little player, though, and might think more clearly than her opponent. |

don't know Kerber is fave
|
|
By:
don't know why*
|
|
By:
I agree Kerber. I'd make Rad maybe a 1.8 shot.
|
|
By:
Kerber? D'oh. I meant aaron obviously.
|
|
By:
Because she won at Eastbourne and put out the girl that beat Sharapova.
Shouldn't be fave though. |

Because she won at Eastbourne
This means I need my bed  |

kerber is very emotional she often loses her games form 40-0 40-15 but she can often comeback quickly to the match from mental journey like from 5-0 down in set
 i think past few matched blured whole image a bit, kerber easy win over clisters( but clisters definetely no fit and her serve way off the usual pace) beating lisicki who beat sharapova etc etc (remember sabine crying to not to be bageled by rad couple months ago) rad last two matches were bit ugly at some points but as i said because of wetness and heavy ball . wet grass taking off all rad advantages like quickness and ability to turn from deep defense to offense , to chase all balls to hit witty passing shot etc etc. against kir she started very well with break points on every her service game,and was untouchable herself on serve. rain is huge disadvantage for her as she hasnt got pacy shots and her mobvement is being limited and her movement is her weapon so the match became very scrappy but under the roof it was different again kiry shots wasnt looking that quick anymore and she holded easly herself this match will be 50-50 as kerb is smart player who can play similar game to rad, but i think rad can win it because for me she is looking strong at normal weather conditions and kerber will not have any pace to feed of rad but their matches always epic must admit ....and they best friends, how you wouldnt look at it it will be very very very emotional game of chess |

By:
Kerber has been playing well, and has beaten some decent names in McHale, Clijsters (well past her best, I know), and Lisicki, the woman who beat the world number one.. Radwanska has beaten, erm, Kiri. Kiri's a very proficient player, but she's hardly a world beater. I suspect that's why Kerber's the fave.
Mind you, Radwanska has more real form in her locker this year. |
|
By:
Oh, I like ;{p's more...
|
|
By:
That's not really A-Rad's fault though is it? You can only beat what the draw gives you and she's dispensed of those games she's had.
|
|
By:
Well the markets often focus on who appears to be having the best run in a tournament. And, on that score, Kerber's run has been more impressive. No, that's not A-Rad's fault. But then, it shouldn't really matter a thimble to A-Rad whether the markets make her fave or not. She'll go out there and, if she's good enough, she'll win. The markets should have very little to do with it.

By:
lol cooee
yes draw should be left behind at this point i agree rad should be 1.8 here but either player backers should be confident, i think i can be 3 setter as usual ,start will be important also. trading paradise probably lets live it to the day anyways |
|
By:
i loled on ur previous comment of course
 |
|
By:
I was momentarily confused. But then, a lot of things momentarily confuse me... |
|
By:
If I think A Rad's odds are a bit out, Aza's look even more awry.
|
|
By:
yes but rad may be 1.9 after 2 games played it often like that,market realizing that made mistake with fav placement and rad is higher in ranks etc etc so tit could be quic adjust and free trade
anyways those odds will be mark on ur trading so if marked overpriced kerber there could be nice trading on horrizzont |
|
By:
aza odds are crazy imao
but not much money in market thou so it may change drasticly tommorow in bot matches.hope not  |
|
By:
I think Aza is overrated and is/was a poor number one, but 2.42 is laughable.
As for, A-Rad, I think the only way she won't trade as favourite at some point, is if she loses the first set and is always behind in that set, and doesn't get at least a break up in the second. Otherwise, the nature of WTA matches, she'll trade below 2 at some point. Even if for only that simple profit, the 2.2 on offer now is tasty. |

azar was pushing serena at us open, since then both went in different directions
serena won madrit but azarenka was empty tank there i think,especially mentally here she can be threat to serena she moves so quick serena not ,different match up than petra today |
