Update: Boulter started the match priced at 1.64. Boulter served first and was broken to 30. I backed Boulter at 1.98.

In the next game, Podrez was broken to 15. I removed half the liability at 1.71. I kept the green on Boulter.

In the next game, Boulter saved 4 break points but was eventually broken. She was not serving well so I kept my position on her but did not add to it. Podrez then had a hold to 30 to lead 3-1.

Boulter was then broken for a third time, this time to 0. She trailed by a double break. As the price should not go too much lower in the set, I laid Podrez at 1.53.

Podrez was broken in the next game to 15. Her price rose to 1.73. As i had favoured Boulter pre match, I wanted to give her a chance to recover. In her next service game, She faced 2 break points but recovered to hold.

Podrez served at 4-3 and was broken to 15. I hedged on Boulter at 1.55. What a mess of a set, and it wasn’t over yet. 6 of the 8 games had been breaks and only 1 of the games did not have a break point.

Not surprisingly, Boulter was broken in the next game. Podrez served for the set at 5-4. Very surprisingly, she held to 15!.

Stats weren’t great for either player but were a little better for Podrez. She hadn’t served well all week. Something about her game made the opponents struggle from the service line too.
2 from 15 on second serve for Boulter! Not good when your serve is usually very strong.

Set 1 stats


Podrez ended the set priced at 1.50. Boulter served first in the second set. She had only held serve once in the first set and had to save 2 break points in that game! I waited for her to have her service game before entering.

Boulter was broken after missing out on a game point! I laid Podrez at 1.33. I had a decent profit from the first set so the lay was risk free.

In the next game, Podrez saved a break point but when she faced a second one, she was broken. I backed Podrez at 1.52 using the same stake that I had used to lay her. This left me with a decent profit on Boulter and a bigger profit on Podrez.

Boulter was broken again in the next game. Broken to 15. Still only one hold for her in the match. I left my position alone. Podrez followed that with a hold to 30 and then broke Boulter yet again to lead 4-1.

Podrez held to 0 for a 5-1 lead. You’ll be surprised that Boulter was broken for the 8th time to give the set and the match to Podrez.

Podrez won 6-4, 6-1. She must have voodoo dolls of all her opponents!

Nice profit. HORRIBLE match.

Boulter served first in the second set. I laid her at 1.27. She was broken to 15. I backed her at 1.52 to leave the same green from set 1 on Boulter and a larger green on Cristian.

The next 6 games were holds. There was just 1 break point on the Cristian serve when she served at 3-2.

Cristian served at 4-3 and went 15-40 behind. She faced and saved 8 break points in that game and managed to hold. I hedged evenly at 1.76.

The next 2 games were holds and Cristian took the set.

As it was getting late and I needed to be up early on Thursday, I did not get involved in the third set. That was probably a good thing as it was a very one sided set in favour of Boulter. From 1-1, she won the next 5 games!

Boulter won 7-6, 4-6, 6-1.
