New month, new thread. Now that we're getting down to the nitty gritty, maybe just posting for what day the matches are being played is better. Some days, I'll prob. have no plays.

Today:
Lisicki +925: Was gonna take the handicap ("+ games) but what the hell... if she's gonna do it .. do it right. She can hit (speed wise) like Williams and she won't back down either. Maybe with a little luck... who knows? We've seen bigger upset bombers go off at this tourney. Hell, I hit a nice one at Philadelphia Park yesterday, but that's for another forum. Sorry :(

Tomic + 4 games (Dimes): Following him has been paying off. No question that he's on his game right now. I already wrote what I think about BIRDych in earlier posts.

NaLi - 215: she's beaten better than Vinci and she very rarely goes overboard with unforced errors. She's a steady/consistent player as well while Vinci can get erratic.
It's hard to back her much to go much further though cause she really doesn't have that BIG-WEAPON kinda shot like some of the remaining players have.

Kvitova -300: this one's a parlay stuffer.

G.L. y'awl.

Well, good luck. I like the shot on Lisicki. Navarro has been playing well (now in tb first set). Li is the one I'm not sure about. She didn't look that great last round, making more errors than usual.

Whew!

Whew!

Thanks for the kudos. Gotta admit that I never hit one that big. In tennis, that is. Hell, I don't remember ever backing any player with anywhere close to those odds.

You know the best part of it... I didn't wimp out and go with the +4 game handicap. Been there and done that plenty of times.

Needed some luck with that match cause all along I kept thinking,"How the hell is she gonna win this with all them 1st serve misses". I almost turned the TV off when she was down Love-3 in that 3rd set.

There's always hope in this game, MJers.

(I tried to play "Celebration" by Kool and the Gang in the background. Tried all the tricks and toys I've successfully used before but it looks like MJ may have disabled them. Gotta work on that:)
