Final week before Roland Garros is here.
Garbine Muguruza is trying to vulture Rabat, and Thiem and Medvedev are both hoping to get some clay matches in in Geneva, but other than that no big names in action.
We will find out early this week if Betfair will stream French Open at all. I think it's either yes or no rather than streaming the men and not streaming the women.
Happy betting, gambling and arbing.

depends. If he wants future commentary gigs, getting a fixing ban won't help him.
But if a player sees no future in the sport, there are players who opt for a final big pay cheque as the only punishment is often a ban which won't hurt them if they intend to retire anyway.
The bets were reportedly concentrated in three online markets which originated in Cyprus, Armenia and Ukraine.

maybe not fix in a Grand Slam and maybe also make it less obvious.
I keep seeing players use RG branded bottles during the qualies. Watch out for the Big Bottled Girls and Rafa underperforming if players are mandated to use these bottles at the tournament. Comfort and habits are everything in tennis.

I hope they have some customized bottles for Bouzkova, Osorio etc.
A mirrored version of the Nike dress that Danilovic has been wearing this tournament would have been Ruben Ramirez Hidalgo's wet dream.
Maybe slightly adapted to be more masculine in addition to being mirrored as well.

Let's pray for the Big Bottled Babes.
Hipster analysis update
This Cachin Kotov match is massive as regards who takes the spoils in the mens.
If Kotov hangs on then the only way Mes catches Edy is Frantangelo to win and Ritschard to lose.
If Danilovic wins the final set WW wins but if Tomova wins N88 is still hanging grimly off the cable car with blood on his mouth.

Sounds like a sweet ol' family christmas movie.
And don't get me wrong, I liked the language (but I did not get the reference)

Did you know McHale is the still only player to lose to Leonie Küng in 15 tries this year?
Yeah I think you're right. I was giving him Marino for some reason.
Two clues
1 - N88 has now fallen off the cable car and Richard Burton is staring down at him
2 - The heavy metal band Iron Maiden had a hit song about it (same name as the film)
If nobody gets it in the next minute I will post the title

Well done Wisewords on winning Womens
Edy, Mes now has to do an 'inside staright' to try to catch you

You're a point ahead. Frantangelo beats you because he'ss 1.25 but only if Ritschard also loses
I have Carabelli, but I suck at RG hipster challenge, so your Ritschard pick should be safe.
This will be a worse snatch from almost assured victory than what Putintseva did to Muguruza last week from set down and the spaniard serving for the match at 30-0.

Have more trust in Fratangelo being his usual mess than Ritschard winning.
Both matches now on serve. Ritschard match locked at 4-4. 'Citing.

Has Mes spent the last 5 minutes in his Harry potter cape doing spells in a dark room 
GSM Bjorn, but Ritschard has broken back.
Mes 1.23

Many congratulations to ww and mes for winning the respective hipster challenges!
I have not even counted the scores yet. Just going on JM's dodgy maths.
The letter 'M' already carved on the trophy..
But does Nino Serdarušić have something to say about that !??

Excuse me while I spend the next few hours looking at Kope Kittens.
Imagine if Norrie could finish a match without drama/choking in 2 sets....

Not sure what it was for. Possibly taking a too long bathroom break.
Kerber has easily missed more than five overhead shots today.

Sousa really channeling his inner Benneteau here late in the final set.
Strasbourg playing the same advertisement song every single changeover is really starting to get to me.
Sousa is kinda the reverse Benneateau in finals.

nearly over
One service game away from a very rare three tiebreak match in the WTA.
Juvan has repeatedly done some really weird slice squash shot on the forehand from mid court when there was zero pressure on here and she lost the point most of the time.
it's apparently fine (but you never if issues will flare up again). Still mug odds indeed.
Players are also sometimes eager to lie (or not be entirely open) about their condition ahead of matches. Especially at slam first rounds where something like "Gosh, my back hurts so hard" and a consequent retirement might earn you to lose your entire prize money.
