ATP Buenos Aires: Sonego v Cuevas

Lorenzo Sonego 2.48, Pablo Cuevas 1.67

Due to start around 10 pm

This will be their first meeting.

Overall results are very even in the last 12 months. Their results on clay are also pretty even. Cuevas has a small edge. He has won 69% of his matches compared to 67% for Sonego.

Last week Cuevas reached the quarter finals in Cordoba. He beat Federico Delbonis in the first round that week. He didn’t have an amazing season in 2019 on clay. He reached the third round at the French Open and the final in Estoril. He also had 2 semi final finishes in Cordoba and Rio de Janeiro. That doesn’t sound too bad but not long ago he was one of the strongest clay players on the tour. He reached the quarter finals last year.

Sonego had some successes in 2019. He reached the quarter finals in Marrakech as a qualifier. He was also a qualifier at the Monte Carlo Masters where he got to the quarter finals. He made the semis in Kitzbuhel in July and in September won a clay Challenger title in Genova. He reached the second round as a qualifier in Buenos Aires last year.

We haven’t seen Sonego’s best form on the main tour for several months. Back Cuevas around 1.90.

Update: Close match. Cuevas reached around 1.88 very early. He won 6-4, 6-4.

TradeShark Diary 9th February 2020

It has been a fairly standard week. The 3 ATP tournaments were all ATP250’s so top players were thin on the ground. That doesn’t really cause many problems to traders in WTA tournaments but for the ATP it feels like you have to work a bit harder for your profits. You get a few more unexpected results.

The storm that was forecast seems to be building. The wind sounds pretty strong. When I took the dogs out around 10:30 last night it wasn’t a pleasant walk with the wind straight into your face. Today the winds seems much stronger and you can feel it battering the house yet nothing on the street is getting blown around. Usually when we have high winds you will see wheelie bins and kids toys blowing up the road. That doesn’t seem to be happening. Weird as it sounds like the house could blow over!

I have made some changes to the sales page. I’m always messing about with one or all of the sites. I also have betfairtennistrading.com. My SEO education continued this week. I looked on a site called the wayback machine. It shows you versions of sites from the past. Looking at mine showed me the SEO side of things (site title and description) barely changed in many years. I’m starting to understand what Google is looking for. If they don’t “like” your title and description they make one up based on old descriptions or from content in your pages. Sometimes what they choose better matches the search term that the searcher used but I would rather be in control of what shows up next to my site in Google searches.

Having a bit of a chill out day. Not really up to much. It’s good to give my brain a rest from tennis for a a few hours after I have completed the trading tips email obviously!
