Update: Halys served first and held to 15. In the next game, Walton faced 3 break points but recovered to hold. In the next game, Halys was broken to 30. I backed Halys at 1.98.

The next 4 games were easy holds. Walton served at 4-3. He faced a break point. I removed half the liability at 1.73. Walton saved that break point and saved another before holding to lead 5-3. Halys was broken again in the next game to lose the set. His price went to 2.64.

Halys had a low first serve percentage in that set. He also won just 50% of second serve points. That isn’t a good combination. Walton’s stats were much more solid even though he had a lower second serve win percentage. He was getting more first serves into play.

I hedged for the red at 2.64. In set 2, the first 3 games were holds. Halys was then broken to 30. Walton was now a set and a break ahead. I had not been impressed with Halys up to this point. He had put very little pressure on the Walton serve and had been broken himself 3 times. I left the match alone after that.

There were no more breaks in the match.

Walton won 6-3, 6-3. Disappointing from Halys.
