Update: Svitolina’s price dropped from 1.59 to 1.55 before the match.

Svitolina served first. The first 4 games were holds with no break points.
2-2

Svitolina went 15-40 behind. Her price was 1.61. She was broken to 30. Her price reached 1.68. Often, if my favoured player gets broken but their price doesn’t quite reach my target price, I will still back them but use a reduced stake. In this case, we were miles away from my minimum entry price of 2.10. I waited for a better price.
2-3

Bencic held to 0. Svitolina’s price hit 1.95. I p[laced a small back on her.
2-4

Svitolina faced a break point at 30-40. Her price reached 2.08. Still not quite at my minimum target price. As I already had a small back on her, I waited for the break. She was broken to 30. I added to my back of Svitolina at 2.40.
2-5

Bencic was broken to 0. I removed liability at 2.00. I left the green on Svitolina.
3-5

Svitolina then held to 30.
4-5

Bencic served for the set. She faced a break point at 30-40. I hedged evenly at 1.63 on Svitolina. Bencic saved the break point and would save another before holding to take the set.
4-6
