20th Jul 2009 (ATP Hamburg)
Vassallo Arguello - Granollers 2 @ pinnacle 2,18 2/10
Head-to-head record 1:0
Two clay court specialists will fight for the second round spot at Hamburg. Granollers is a solid clay court player who has done pretty well here in past. He is a defensive baseliner who likes the long rallies from the baseline. He is a big fighter and even if his YTD results weren´t great though, we believe in his dirt abilities and fighting spirit. Usually, he frustrates his opponents so much that the opponent might actually try to change his game by either coming to the net in which case he can just execute passing shots down the lines. His self confidence must be destructed after this nightmare year but he played two easy matches in qualifiers here and we hope he will be able to follow up these results in the main draw as well. His opponent is Argentine clay court specialist Martin Vassallo Arguello. His latest form is at least questionable and he has been too inconsistent for us. We see 50:50 chances on both sides and thus we will stay with Spanish underdog who has the qualifying matches under the belt.
20th Jul 2009 (ATP Indianapolis)
Isner - Ouanna 2 @ pinnacle 3,44 1/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
American bomber John Isner will play French hope Josselin Ouanna in the first round at Indianapolis. Isner is known for his booming serve which is attributed, at least in part, to his height. Commentators have also praised his composure during matches, as displayed during his five consecutive 3rd-set tiebreaker wins in Washington, which were marked by his ability to bring out huge serves when it mattered most. Additionally he is known to back up his huge serves with approaches to the net, though he does not strictly serve-and-volley. Isner has been compared to Croatian Ivo Karlovic. He has reached his career best results on US hard courts and so he should feel fine here. On the other hand, his latest results weren´t impressive and he is probably still not fully recovered from mononucleosis. Isner received a wild card entry into the 2009 Australian Open. However, despite serving 39 aces against his first-round opponent, Slovakia's Dominik Hrbaty, he was downed in four sets. At the 2009 Indian Wells tournament, Isner pulled off a major upset by defeating the number 9 seed, rising French player and junior superstar Gael Monfils. Isner rallied back after falling in the first set to defeat Monfils. He then went on to defeat former world No 1 Marat Safin, before losing to world No 6 Juan Martin Del Potro in the fourth round. This is by far his best YTD result but he hasn’t managed to keep on winning on this level. Isner was given a wildcard into the French Open but had to withdraw after being diagnosed with mononucleosis. He played just one match since he came back but lost to Ryler DeHeart. Today, he will play promising French player Josselin Ouanna. Ouanna shined at French Open beating Marat Safin in the second round but he hasn’t been impressive since then. Anyway, he has a solid serve and should be able to keep his serve against Isner whose returns and baseline play are not even mediocre. We expect a tight match where tiebreaks could decide. In this light, anything above 3 could be taken.

21th Jul 2009 (WTA Bad Gastein)
Fichman - Meusburger 1 @ pinnacle 1,893 3/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
Canadian qualifier Sharon Fichman will play experienced home player Yvonne Meusburger in the first round at Bad Gastein. Fichman's style is a counter-punching baseliner, but she prides herself on being able to play any style. She employs a variety of spins and pace, and a wide array of shots. She is an explosive player capable of reeling off an improbable winner in a defense-to-offense situation. She is a very talented player with successful junior career under the belt. In January 2009 she won the singles in the Lutz, Florida tournament, dropping only one set. In April 2009 she won the Osprey, Florida tournament. Her YTD record is 31-12 and she came through the qualifiers easily dropping just 8 games in 3 matches. She plays in a good shape and is definitely able to keep is close with Meusburger whose career best result comes from July 2007, when Meusburger made a surprising run to the final of the 2007 Gastein Ladies tournament. The most notable win of this run was her first round win over the second seed Emilie Loit of France. She followed it up by beating Eva Birnerova, Lourdes Dominguez Lino and Karin Knapp. In the final she was defeated by Francesca Schiavone. However, she hasn’t added other big results throughout her career. Young Canadian is definitely more talented player and should be able to reach the higher positions during her career. Anything above 1.9 is good enough for us.

Bogomolov - Cipolla 1 @ pinnacle 1,75 2/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
American qualifier Alex Bogomolov Jr. will play Italian clay court specialist Flavio Cipolla. Bogomolov, born in Moscow, was a very successful junior and the number one ranked USTA player for the 18s section in 2000, and had a career high ranking of World No. 97 in 2003. In 1998, Bogomolov won the USTA National Boys’ 16 Championships, defeating Andy Roddick in the final. However, he has never managed to follow this up with senior achievements. He spent most of his career on challenger and USTA circuit. Among his strengths as a player are that he is extremely fast and explosive, with a superb forehand. He has all the shots, but his return of serve is his most valuable asset, and he cleverly constructs points. He is a serviceable volleyer, who likes coming in to the net, and is not afraid to move forward as points play out. After injury, he started the season with 5 losses in a row in May. But he now seems to play in a bit better form as he defeated Arnaud Clement twice in the last two tournaments and he got through the qualifiers here in Indianapolis. He will face Italian clay courter Cipolla who surprised by solid hard court results at the beginning of the season but his latest results were more or less poor and we don’t believe he is able to make it to the further stages of this tournament. Bogomolov´ price isn´t brilliant but still can be taken.

Soderling - Almagro 2 @ pinnacle 3,39 1/10
Head-to-head record 2:0
Nicolas Almagro will have another chance for revenge today. He is going to play Soderling again, the player he hasn’t won a single set against. Almagro's playing style fits that of an offensive baseliner. Aided by his stocky frame, an uncommon trait on the ATP Tour, Almagro's groundstrokes, particularly on his favored backhand side, are very powerful. Almagro uses a very quick and compact service motion which helps his first serve often exceed speeds of 210 km/h. In addition to his powerful game, Almagro is also known for playing on the edge of his emotions, often losing his temper on-court. He is a quality clay courter and should be able to keep the match close against the Swede. Last week, he lost to Soderling 5-7, 3-6 in Bastad but that was on Swedish soil. Soderling won that tournament and can already be a bit tired. Soderling's known for his power game, hitting both hard groundstrokes and hard serves, making it very difficult for his opponents to break his serve. He is one of few players on the tour who has almost as strong backhand as his forehand. Most of his success has come on faster surfaces (hard courts and indoor carpet), despite his 2009 run to the French Open final. Many people have praised Soderling for his game saying he is a stable top tenner, though his mental strength and lack of consistency in his game has been his weakness. For his height he is reasonably quick on the court. Robin usually plays from the baseline, approaching the net only on select opportunities. He is our favourite player and we bet against him rarely but he´ll face proper clay court player today and we don’t think that Spaniard deserves to be such a big underdog. Odds above 3 are worth trying.

28th Jul 2009 (ATP Umag)
Seppi - Chela 2 @ pinnacle 2,15 3/10
Head-to-head record 1:1
Argentine veteran Juan Ignacio Chela came through the qualifiers and will face Andreas Seppi of Italia in the first round. Chela is a very experienced player who reached his career-high singles ranking of World No. 15. His strongest surface is slow hardcourt, but like most Argentine players he is comfortable on clay. Chela plays a defensive counter-punching game from the baseline, and utilizes his retrieving skills in order to frustrate opponents. Obviously, his best years are already gone but he is still fighting hard for his place under the tennis sun. He definitely has the motivation for each and every match he plays and the qualifying matches are surely good for his self confidence. On the other hand, Andreas Seppi was demolished by Gabashvili last week and he looked a bit resignedly. He considers clay and hardcourts his favourite surface but his YTD record is really poor and latest performance indicates he is looking forward to the US hard courts. We are not convinced of his motivation. Chela is a slight favourite for us and anything above 2 is worth taken here.

Vliegen - Bellucci 2 @ pinnacle 2,08 2/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
Thomaz Bellucci of Brazil will face Belgian Kristof Vliegen in the first round. Bellucci began the year reaching the Brasil Open final for the first time, but eventually lost to higher-ranked Tommy Robredo. It was his first ATP Tour final, after a string of Challengers. He used a string of Challenger tournament victories early in 2008 to break into the top 100 in the world as a 20-year-old. His career high rank is No. 63, achieved in 2009. Bellucci is primarily an offensive baseliner with a powerful first serve and solid groundstrokes. His forehand is the more powerful shot but also the less reliable, as his backhand is much more consistent. He is also considered to be a good mover who is able to move efficiently on different contrasting surfaces like clay and hard courts. He has been playing in a solid shape in qualifiers and will now face Kristof Vliegen of Belgium. He is just a mediocre player in our eyes who has a solid serve but nothing else to bother talented Brazilian player. Bellucci is a favourite for us and odds above 1.8 are worth taking.

28th Jul 2009 (ATP Los Angeles)
Dent - Sweeting 2 @ bet365 2,37 3/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
Promising US talent Ryan Sweeting will play experienced fellow country man Taylor Dent in the opening round at LA Open. Sweeting had a stellar form at the beginning of the year with YTD record of 14 wins – 3 losses. He hasn’t been so impressive since then and noted some poor losses to weaker opponents but he still belongs among the most promising US players. He was a successful junior winning the U.S. Open boys' singles title in 2005, beating Jeremy Chardy in the final. He made his professional U.S. Open debut in 2006 where he defeated Argentine Guillermo Coria in the first round before losing to Belgian Oliver Rochus despite leading in two sets. He is a typical American who feels best on hard courts. Sweeting has a solid serve and it is difficult to break him. He played well in qualifiers and we believe he is able to beat his more experienced countryman. Tylor Dent was a successful player who has won 4 ATP singles titles during his career and reached the finals of three other events on tour. Dent's most memorable performance of his career so far came at the 2004 Summer Olympics, where he made a push all the way to the semifinals, where he was defeated by eventual gold medalist Nicolas Massu of Chile. In the 2006 and 2007 seasons, Dent did not play very many competitive matches, due to the recurring back and groin problem. Dent had back surgery on March, 2007. Last year, he returned from injury receiving a wild card and played at the Carson challenger in USA. It was his first match since Feb. 2006. He lost his first round match to Cecil Mamiit. In July 2008 Dent took a wild card into his first ATP tour event for two seasons at the Hall of Fame tennis tournament in Newport, Rhode Island. He lost in three sets to Canada's Frank Dancevic. In November 2008 Dent won his first comeback match at the Champaign challenger against Frederic Niemeyer. He followed this win up by defeating number 2 seed and fellow American Robert Kendrick. In the third round Dent had to withdraw against Sam Warburg. Using his protected ranking of 56, Dent played the 2009 Australian Open, where he was eliminated in the first round by Amer Delic. He has showed some other solid performances this year but he is still far from being at his best. He used to be a great server but now, he usually produces more double faults than aces and his performances are just too inconsistent for us. Another tight match where odds above 2.3 can be taken.

Mayer - Ouanna 2 @ pinnacle 2,20 3/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
Last week, we advised you to bet on Ouanna against Isner and that pick unfortunately didn’t turn out well. However, we are now choosing young Frenchman again. Promising young talent has shined at French Open beating Marat Safin in the second round but he hasn’t been impressive since then. He noted several poor losses in a row and proved that he is still an inconsistent player. But he has a solid serve and should feel comfortable on LA hard courts. He has the qualifying matches under the belt and we expect him to play better than last week. Today, he will face Argentine Leonardo Mayer who qualified for his first ever Grand Slam at the 2009 French Open, and beat 15th seed James Blake in straight sets in the first round. He then lost to Tommy Haas in five sets in the second round. At Wimbledon, he beat Oscar Hernandez in the first round easily and lost to Fernando Gonzalez in four sets in the second round. These latest results showed how big potential this young Argentine has. He showed some solid tennis there and we are pretty sure there is a bright future ahead of him. On the other hand, he still has many weaknesses and we don’t think he deserves to be such a big favourite against French qualifier. He lacks the match practice on US hard courts and Ouanna will definitely be a hard nut to crack for him. We expect a tight match and will stay with Ouanna with odds above 2.1.

Haas - Levine 2 @ pinnacle 4,80 1/10
Head-to-head record 1:0
Resurrected German Tommy Haas will play American Jesse Levine in the second round. Haas has been playing some stellar tennis over the last weeks and noted great Grand slam results. He played well on both clay and grass and now he comes to hard courts. He is one of the most universal players on the circuit. His playing style is relaxed and smooth. His main strength is a powerful forehand and a natural talent for placement. He can make accurate and powerful down-the-line forehands and cross-court forehands on the run and often patiently constructs points to get in a position from where he can make outright winners with those shots. He also has one of the best backhands in the game. He is noted for often playing high-risk tennis, attempting difficult shots which, depending on their execution, can pay off big or backfire. Unfortunately, these difficult shots have sometimes resulted in self-destructive losses. He will now face Jesse Levine of United States. Among his strengths as a player are that he is extremely fast and explosive, and has a superb forehand. He is also a hard worker and has dazzling hand-eye coordination, which allows him to take the ball exceptionally early. He has all the shots, but his return of serve is his most valuable asset, and he cleverly constructs points. He is a serviceable volleyer, who likes coming in to the net, and is not afraid to move forward as points play out. Of course, he has not the potential comparable to Tommy Haas and German must be the favourite here but odds above 4.5 are worth trying for us. Levine is having a solid season and if he serves well, he is capable of reaching the third round here. Plus he has better match practice on hard courts than his German opponent. 1 point bet.

Sela - Kendrick 2 @ pinnacle 2,27 3/10
Head-to-head record 2:2
American bomber Robert Kendrick will face Sela Dudi of Israel in the second round at LA Tennis Open. Kendrick is a typical US played with a style of play suited to fast hard courts. He uses his strong serve and powerful backhand to win points from the baseline. He would often move around the court and find his way to the net to put away a ball by volleying. In short, he is an all-court player. He began the year with a loss in the first round of the 2009 Australian Open to Robin Soderling in four sets. He made it to the second round of the Delray Beach Championships before losing to Evgeny Korolev, then losing to David Nalbandian in the second round of the BNP Paribas Open. He beat Soderling in the second round of the Sony Ericsson Open, then lost in the third round to Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. At the 2009 French Open, he beat Daniel Brands to advance to the second round for the first time in his career, where he lost to Gilles Simon. In the first round of Wimbledon, he was beaten by number 3 seed Andy Murray in four sets. His season is just average but he was unlucky several times and managed to keep the matches very close with the players such as Murray, Tsonga, Nalbandian or Soderling. In the first round here, Kendrick demolished fellow countryman Vince Spadea 6-0, 6-0 and his self confidence must be high following that errorless performance. He will play Dudi Sela who is having a great year so far. He is very fast, and viewed as a serve and volleyer by some. The versatility that he demonstrates with his one-handed backhand is seldom matched by anyone on the circuit. He got among the top 30 for the first time in his career and played some stellar tennis in the first half of the year. On the other hand, his recent form is questionable as he hasn’t played the first round match in LA. Last weak, he defeated Spadea in the first round at Indy but was beaten by Bogomolov in the second round. Anything above 2 must be taken here.

Peer - Rodionova 2 @ pinnacle 3,06 1/10
Head-to-head record 1:0
Shahar Peer will play Anastasia Rodionova in the clash of two players who are definitely not satisfied with their current seasons. Peer is an ambitious player and her playing style is that of a defensive baseliner, or counterpuncher. Peer is solid from both her forehand and her backhand wings. She is also known for her good footwork. Her speed to get to the ball is exceptional too. Her serve is sturdy and her volleys are reliable also. Often Peer will play smart, high percentile shots and force her opponents to hit errors. The 2009 season is definitely not meeting her expectations. He has a poor match record and is still waiting for success. She lacks match practice on US hard courts and we don’t think she deserves to be such a big favourite in this match. Well, Rodionova is also out of form but she at least quallied for this event and played two solid matched in the pre-tournament. She is an offensive baseline player. Her primary groundstroke is her forehand, which she hits hard and flat. In particular, her running forehand, which she rarely misses, is a key weapon for Rodionova when she's on the defensive. She has no particular favourite surface, as her playing ability allows her to adapt easily on each surface. To be honest, we don’t expect her to make it to the later stages here but we think she is able to add at least one more win in LA. Anything above 3 can be considered here.

Razzano - Chakvetadze 2 @ pinnacle 2,53 2/10
Head-to-head record 1:2
French tennis player Virginia Razzano will play former World No.5 Anna Chakvetadze in the first round at LA tennis Open. Razzano is having the best season of her career this year and achieved many good results. In Hobart, Razzano was lost to eventual champion Petra Kvitova in the semifinals. At the 2009 Australian Open, she beat Jarmila Gajdosova and 14th seeded Patty Schnyder en route to the third round, where she lost to Dominika Cibulkova. In Dubai, she upset the World No. 2 Dinara Safina to progress to the third round. She followed this up by defeating Daniela Hantuchova. In the quarterfinals, she defeated World No. 5 Vera Zvonareva, achieving two wins over Top 5 opponents in three days. In the semifinals she defeated Estonia's Kaia Kanepi. However she lost to reigning Wimbledon champion Venus Williams in the final. After withdrawing from a tournament in Birmingham with a lower back injury, Razzano made it to the finals at Eastbourne by beating Elena Dementieva, and Marion Bartoli. She eventually lost to Caroline Wozniacki. At Wimbledon, Razzano was seeded 26th and in the first round, her opponent Tamira Paszek retired after falling behind heavily. After a defeat over Jill Craybas in the second round, her third round opponent Vera Zvonareva withdrew to allow Razzano to her first Wimbledon fourth round. Razzano then fell to Francesca Schiavone in the fourth round. As you can see, it´s a kind of dreamy season for her. As an underestimated player, she noted many remarkable wins this year. She is a big fighter but on the other hand, she proved to be inconsistent many times throughout her career. We don’t think she is a player of potential for the top 10 and we would be surprised if she improved her rankings further. She will play Anna Chakvetadze, who is, on the other hand, definitely the player of big potential and talent from god. In 2007, she reached her career-high professional singles ranking of World No. 5. She has won seven WTA Singles Titles. This year is a nightmare for her and the record of 9-13 is more than poor. We believe she already touched the bottom and must bounce back sooner or later. Anything above 2.5 on the player of such caliber is worth trying for us.

Hantuchova - Oudin 2 @ pinnacle 2,60 2/10
Head-to-head record 1:0
American prodigy Melanie Oudin will play Slovak Daniela Hantuchova in the first round at LA tennis open. Oudin is an extremely talented player and we think the big results will come for her sooner or later. She is the former world junior number two and her career high rank is No. 70, achieved last month. Her YTD match record is 30-10 and her biggest success comes from 2009 Wimbledon. Oudin entered Wimbledon as a qualifier and defeated Sybille Bammer in three sets in the first round and Yaroslava Shvedova in three sets in the second. In her biggest career win to date, Oudin defeated world no. 6 Jelena Jankovic to be eventually beaten by Agnieszka Radwanska in the fourth round. Despite her small size, she has a relatively powerful serve. Her footwork, balance, and court coverage are exceptional and she is adept at changing from a defensive style to an aggressive one. She likes the fast surfaces and should feel fine in LA which she proved in quallies. She will play experienced Slovak Daniela Hantuchova who is having not a bad season. Hantuchova's game is built around natural timing. She is able to produce "effortless" power from her flowing groundstrokes and possesses a superb down-the-line forehand and backhand. She possesses a heavy serve and has a particularly effective "kick" second serve. Her favourite and most effective construction of a winning point is her flat serve out wide on the Ad-court, followed by a backhand winner down the line. Her volleys are very well-produced and often have the deftest of touch. Due to these attributes she is known as an "All-arounder". A weakness of Hantuchova since she emerged from the juniors was her lack of explosive movement around the court. In recent years, however, this aspect of her tennis has been vastly improved. Last week, she played her first round match at the Bank of the West Classic in Stanford, winning in three sets against defending champion Aleksandra Wozniak. She then defeated No.7 seed Agnieszka Radwanska in the second round but fell to Elena Dementieva in the quarterfinals. She plays in a solid shape but we believe that young Yankee will be a hard nut to crack for her. With qualifying matches under the belt, Oudin will be able to keep the match close. Hantuchova is 1-0 up in head-to-head record but that match was very close and Hantuchova defeated Oudin in 3 sets in Miami this year. Anything above 2.5 worth considering here.

Safarova - A.Bondarenko 1 @ pinnacle 1,84 3/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
Alona Bondarenko will play extinguished Czech star Lucie Safarova in the second round at LA tennis championship. Safarova was considered to be the big talent of women´s tennis and she had a stellar 2007 season defeating several top players including former World No 1 Justine Henin. She plays left-handed with a two-handed backhand. Her superb timing off the ground allows her to project groundstrokes of effortless power. She is quick to spot opportunities to take the initiative and is able to hit many spectacular winners. Her preferred surface is clay but she has reached the great results on hard courts as well. However, her last two seasons are kind of nightmare for her. She hasn’t collected many successes on WTA circuit and her YTD record doesn’t correspond to the player of her caliber. On the other hand, she has shown some signs of improvement lately taking one set off Venus Williams in Rome and Paris or Dinara Safina in Madrid. In LA´s first round, she defeated Kaia Kanepi of Estonia in straight sets. Her opponent will be Alona Bondarenko whose season is also far from being successful. She is an all-around player as she has adapted her game to all surfaces. She is capable of producing spectacular shots like running shots, passing shots, and between-the-legs shots when in form, but, on an off-day, her shots can fly all over the court. She often struggles in high pressure matches and succumbs to her nerves. She suffered plenty of devastating losses this year and her form is definitely not ideal. In the first round, she defeated come-backer Shaugnessy after the big fight which didn’t persuade us. Anything above 1.8 is worth trying for us.

Andreev - Odesnik 2 @ pinnacle 2,45 2/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
Russian clay-courter Igor Andreev will play Wayne Odesnik of United States in the second round. Andreev is an offensive baseliner who possesses one of the most powerful forehands on tour but his game is mostly based on great movement, incredible foot speed and consistent shots from the baseline. He prefers slow surfaces and his current form is not stellar at all. Furthermore, he is coming off the European clay and has never played here before. Wayne Odesnik, on the other hand, has a solid preparation on hard courts. He won 5 out of 7 matches he already played on US hard courts after Wimbledon. Odesnik has a modest serve, an excellent forehand, an improving backhand, and good quickness. He also varies his first and second serves, hides the placement of his forehand, and plays the angles on the court. He has a good technique and his favourite surface is hard. We know that Andreev is better and more experience player but the surface and home crowd support could help Odesnik in this one. He also has the first round match under the belt and odds above 2.4 can be taken here.

Tsonga - Isner 2 @ pinnacle 2,82 2/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
American bomber John Isner is coming back to ‶his” venue. In 2007, at the Legg Mason Tennis Classic in Washington., Fernando González's late withdrawal freed up a wild card spot, which was given at the last minute to Isner who took full advantage of his good fortune, recording his first-ever wins over top-100 players. He won 3rd-set tiebreakers on 5 consecutive days, beating Tim Henman, Benjamin Becker, Wayne Odesnik, Tommy Haas, and Gael Monfils, to reach the final. He fell to Andy Roddick in the final, but his incredible week raised his ranking to top 200 in the world after just 6 weeks as a pro. There is no doubt that conditions here suit him perfectly. Tall American is known for his booming serve which is attributed, at least in part, to his height. Commentators have also praised his composure during matches, which is marked by his ability to bring out huge serves when it mattered most. Additionally he is known to back up his huge serves with approaches to the net, though he does not strictly serve-and-volley. Isner has been compared to Croatian Ivo Karlovic and even if his 2009 season is not a dreamy one fro him, we would be surprised if we don’t get some breakers here. Tsonga is known for his powerful, precise serves, as well as heavy forehands. Additionally, his backhand down the line has become one of the best in men's tennis. He has an offensive baseline style of play, and is also known for his superb feel at the net. He is currently one of the very few remaining players who often utilize a serve-and-volley type of play. All of these weapons make him a force to behold on faster surfaces, such as grass and hard courts. But in general, he is an all-court surface player, as his skills on clay-court are improving. Both players are extremely good at serve and thus we expect a very tight match here. Tsonga is first up since Wimbledon and Isner has better match practice for this one. Odds around 3 are just too high for us.

Ivanovic - Oudin 2 @ bet365 3,50 1/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
American youngster Melanie Oudin has managed to qualify for a third consecutive US tournament. We have already said that she is an extremely talented player and we think the big results will come sooner or later. She is the former world junior number two and her career high rank is No. 70, achieved last month. Her YTD match record is 34-11 and her biggest success comes from 2009 Wimbledon. Oudin entered Wimbledon as a qualifier and defeated Sybille Bammer in three sets in the first round and Yaroslava Shvedova in three sets in the second. In her biggest career win to date, Oudin defeated world no. 6 Jelena Jankovic to be eventually beaten by Agnieszka Radwanska in the fourth round. Despite her small size, she has a relatively powerful serve. Her footwork, balance, and court coverage are exceptional and she is adept at changing from a defensive style to an aggressive one. She likes the fast surfaces and played well in qualifiers. Hew opponent will be big-named Ana Ivanovic of Serbia. Ivanovic is an offensive baseliner who is notable for her aggressive play. Ivanovic's strength is her powerful forehand which has long been considered to be one of the best forehands in the game. Her backhand, although not as big of a weapon as her forehand, has improved over the years. Her serve is a powerful weapon, but can sometimes be unreliable due to an occasional wayward ball toss. Her movement and net play were once considered to be her weaknesses, however both her movement and net play has improved tremendously over the years. Ivanovics best surface are clay courts where her height allows her to strike clean winners off of high bouncing balls, but she is capable of performing well on hard and grass courts as well. However, her 2009 season is just an average one and she hasn’t convinced us as yet. At Wimbledon, she suffered a micro-tear in her thigh, and has been advised rest. On US hard courts, she hasn’t been convincing so far and we don’t think she deserves to be such a big favourite against talented home qualifier. Try Oudin for 1 point at 3.3 and above.

Robredo - Bogomolov 2 @ pinnacle 3,29 1/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
American qualifier Alex Bogomolov Jr. will play experienced Spaniard Tommy Robredo. Bogomolov, born in Moscow, was a very successful junior and the number one ranked USTA player for the 18s section in 2000, and had a career high ranking of World No. 97 in 2003. In 1998, Bogomolov won the USTA National Boys’ 16 Championships, defeating Andy Roddick in the final. However, he has never managed to follow this up with senior achievements. He spent most of his career on challenger and USTA circuit. Among his strengths as a player are that he is extremely fast and explosive, with a superb forehand. He has all the shots, but his return of serve is his most valuable asset, and he cleverly constructs points. He is a serviceable volleyer, who likes coming in to the net, and is not afraid to move forward as points play out. After injury, he started the season with 5 losses in a row in May. But he now seems to play in a bit better form as he made quarterfinals in Indianapolis and got through the qualifiers beating Kim and Ouanna. He will face Spanish clay courter Robredo. There is no need to introduce Robredo and his tennis skills. He is much better player than Bogomolov but it´s clear that Robredo is not at his best. He played two poor matches at Wimbledon (wins over Koubek and Gregorc) and was finally beaten by Sela in the third round. After Wimbledon, he won just 2 out of 6 matches he played and his self-confidence must be down. He has been enormously lucky for all the year long and we don´t think he can have that luck in crucial moments henceforward. He is a favourite against Bogomolov but odds above 3 are too high for us. 1 point on American.

Szavay - U.Radwanska 2 @ pinnacle 1,855 2/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
The Polish youngster Urszula Radwanska will play Hungarian clay-courter Agnes Szavay in the first round at Cincinnati. Szavay is a solid player who has achieved her career best results on clay. She uses extreme topspin on her forehand and slower topspin and slice on her backhand. She prefers slow surfaces and is patient baseliner who wins matches by disrupting her opponents' rhythm through changes of spin, pace, depth, height, and angle. This season is not the best one for her and she hasn’t got past the third round outside the clay. Last week, she was demolished by Vesnina in the first round 1-6, 0-6. Her opponent, Urszula Radwanska, is an all-court player who hits consistently on both the forehand and the backhand sides. Her favorite shot is her backhand down-the-line. She is also very accurate with the drop shot and lob. She lacks much of the "power plays", thus she relies on tactical accuracy and patience on constructing the point before hitting a winner. She is a talented player and has a solid season this year with the biggest victory over her more famous sister in February 2009. Radwanska played well in qualifiers where she defeated Spears and Voskoboeva. We think that she deserves to be a favourite for this match and odds above 1.8 are good enough for us.

Shvedova - Kirilenko 1 @ pinnacle 1,714 3/10
Head-to-head record 0:0
Russian qualifier Yaroslava Shvedova will play Russian beauty Maria Kirilenko in the first round. Shvedova advanced through the quallies beating Larcher de Brito and Perry. She adopted an offensive style of play which is particularly determined by her somatotype. She tries to win the point by hitting winners from the back of the court, attacking with fast balls that the opponent cannot reach or return properly. She has a great serve and forehand and feels well on fast surfaces. Russian has the ability to read the game very well and also her opponent´s styles and tendencies so that she can spot a weakness and use one of her aggressive shots to act upon it. She is able to overpower and overwhelm most opposition. However, when going for winners, she can also produce many errors. She will play Maria Kirilenko whose season is really bad. Her YTD record is 13-17 is enormously poor for the player of her caliber. Her style of play is best suited to clay. With respect to the current form, we think that Kirilenko is a big underdog in this match. 3 points on Shvedova.

Simon - Odesnik 2 @ pinnacle 3,55 1/10
Head-to-head record 2:0
Gilles Simon from France will play Wayne Odesnik of United States in the first round of Cincinnati tournament. Regarding Gilles Simon, it is not the secret that he is not our favourite player and we are often betting against him. Simon is still a bit inconsistent and often has a problems playing against offensive baseliners. Wayne Odesnik, on the other hand, has a solid preparation on hard courts. He has a modest serve, an excellent forehand, an improving backhand, and good quickness. He also varies his first and second serves, hides the placement of his forehand, and plays the angles on the court. He has a good technique and his favourite surface is hard. Odds above 3.3 on Odesnik are good enough for us.

Seppi - Hernych 2 @ pinnacle 2,04 3/10
Head-to-head record 0:2
Czech player Jan Hernych came through the qualifiers and will face Andreas Seppi of Italia in the first round. Andreas Seppi is right-handed and plays with a two hand backhand. He considers clay and hardcourts his favourite surface (he is not a typical Italian player). Seppi is currently one of the top Italian tennis players but his YTD results are just average. Hernych is close to the top 50 in the World. Hernych hasn’t got impresive results so far this year (9-19) but he was unlucky in terms of opponents – he lost to Del Potro in Montreal last week, he lost two times to Djokovic (Marseille and Dubai), to Tsonga (Davis Cup match)…
We think that he is favourite for this match and odds above 2.0 are good enough for us.
