i know it's often mentioned how poor Petra is in the USA, but didn't she win two tournaments there last autumn?
|
|
By:
She was shorter than 1.1. I layed 1.08 before the match even started. And think she went to 1.07 before it actually started.
|
|
By:
Last year was quite good for her in the USA, yes. At the moment, though, that stands as an anomaly.
|
|
By:
She did mouse trap. Though most the big guns didn't play those tournaments. She was also involved in a lot of mug fests in them.
|
|
By:
She had mostly straight sets victories except to the likes of Barthel and Woz. Losses to Kerber and Bartoli understandable, though the Bartoli match was an incredible meltdown.

New Haven + Montreal; the problem in the past for Kvitova has really been a 'North America' problem anyway
|
|
By:
Also Indian Wells conditions are worse for her than Canada and Cincinnati. Court wise, this court is a lot slower. Conditions wise, the desert air is very dry which is worse for asthmatics like Petra.

1.7s. What is wrong with the punters betting on this?
|
|
By:
thought it was the humidity

|
By:
Good info.
|
|
By:
Do you still think Petra should be 1.25 or something?
|
|
By:
They seriously need a slap round the face to bring them to their senses.
|
|
By:
Same theory applies to New Haven.
|
|
By:
Her odds are a bit too high, but there's nothing wrong with the market giving up on a 1.1 SP if after two full sets she's not playing anything like a 1.1 shot and lost the second set by a double break.
|
|
By:
dry air or humid which is it
|
|
By:
It will be dry in California, won't it? Nearby deserts
|
|
By:
lol. no i meant which is bad for people with asthma, as it's quite the opposite
|
|
By:
Dry air means very low humidity.
|
|
By:
ffs
|
|
By:
Both are bad for asthmatics nofx. Asthmatics don't want desert like conditions or very humid conditions.
|
|
By:
okay mystery solved
thought humidity was way worse though |
|
By:
Errani held to love against Rhino

|
By:
Er from my experience (asthmatic myself), I've never actually had problems in humid conditions. But breathing gets tight in desert like conditions.
|
|
By:
all the asthma aftertimers piping up

|
By:
I think they are simply discussing the court conditions and how much they would potentially affect Petra, not claiming to have made millions laying Petra because her asthma was obviously going to see her struggle
![]() |
|
By:
It's not rocket surgery.
|
|
By:
okay live and learn, thought it was always the story that players with asthma under perform in humid conditions
|
|
By:
yeah, hard to make millions off petra when only 900K+ traded

olga giving a good fight i'm took some 1.77 on kvi
|
|
By:
Besides I posted in 2 threads before the match even started that Petra was a lay.
Anyway on to this TV match. Kirilenko vs McHale. |
|
By:
It's both
"We know that breathing cold, dry air induces airway constriction in asthmatics," said Don Hayes, MD, medical director of the Lung and Heart-Lung Transplant Program at Nationwide Children's Hospital. "But the effects that temperature increases have on airway function in these patients are generally overlooked. We know very little about the mechanisms that cause symptoms when asthmatic patients are exposed to hot, humid air. |

By:
i went from sp lay to now red on govert so it would make some of the worst aftertiming
