If you told any decent player they had to beat: Duckworth, Ebden, De Minaur, Berdych, Tiafoe and Tsitsipas to then play for a slam they'd nut on the spot.
I work overnight so I'll be watching live. It starts at 3:30am on the east coast. I have a pre-tourney bet on Novak to win...$160 to win $200 but I wouldn't be upset if Rafa won. I'd like to see him pass Fed.
Osaka didn't do much wrong on the 3 championship points - Kvitova played really well to hold from 0-40. Osaka pretty much fell apart for the rest of the set though.
Kvitova would have been a great winner but if you play one of the best female athletes on the planet you will lose most of the time.
Osaka just oozes wim and has some serious goat equity.
What's the best hedge bet here? Thinking about Nadal + under but then again the scenario where he beats Djokovic easily is not as likely as a 5 set match. But If I do that there's no cover in the under games part
