Biggest upset of the tournament(or one of depending on any other tankers)will come in the men's 3rd round when Kyrgios beats Tsitsipas, to be played on Saturday night on a main court I'm guessing.
Nick is dismantling the 26th seed as I type like he is one of the B graders I used to play against a long time ago.. :P

Beautiful but sad at the same time was she dedicated the win to her grandmother who passed away 2 days ago :( and her Pop was up in the box too..that's pretty damn special.
Hope she can keep winning.

And what about Nicky boy!! Knocks out the Greek in 4 his game is HUGE at the moment he can win the thing how good would that be.
I know he is a polarising guy blah not a role model blah plus more and yep the criticism is justified but pure ability wise and when on like now he is every bit as good as all the challengers around.
Haven't looked past next round to see when he plays more big guns(and nor should he but his next round is extremely winnable)but he is good enough to beat everyone there, question is can he maintain or control the rage [-O<
Must mention we have four players through to the second week 3 men which is great and one lady Anna Tomlijanovic great stuff Aussie's!

De Minaur loses in 5 after being 2 sets up phuck a duck oh well he will be hurting, glad I didn't put him in my multi.
I did however riskily put Anna T in it and in a typically roller-coaster match she prevailed in 3 at $2 to provide very nice cream on the Kyrgios, Fritz and Nadal pie.
So 2 out of 4 Aussies are through to the quarters which is good for us.

Bit odd too short really and he cant be trusted as the pressure gets bigger, was I think 1.19 against Garin, idk how he lost that other than a long stop at chokesville station..
Thought my Ajla(how rude of me calling her Anna) leg was gone when she was down a set and couldn't hold serve in the 2nd(was 2/7 holds in 14 games lol)then the French chick began to fold, absolute roller-coaster the Sheila's in tennis.
I'll go again, the bigger guns in the men's all win you would think.
Novak 1.12, Nick 1.25 again, Rafa's 1.38 is Fritz a danger Det?? And Norrie the Englishman is 1.43 and I think he wins for this reason alone, sure digs in this leftie and no 1 Pom.
Ladies less clear and whilst Halep is the shortest i reckon at better odds Rybakina 1.56 probably ends Ajla's great run(at 2.50 could have a saver ticket on her winning as it's not impossible she could jag 1 more win).

Same method here, as all the other legs are tomorrow have had a single bet on Norrie, skipped taking the "boost" for Novak though probably should have.

Re Novak(and it's a habit I rarely get into)but i briefly contemplated live betting Novak late in the 3rd was also fairly confident that he would come back and win..didn't get to the point of checking what the odds were but the price would have been ok I assume with him still behind 2 sets to 1.
Dont condone violence for one minute but there is just as much chance maybe more that this is BS by the ex attention seeker? See it a fair bit from wags.
If he is guilty however throw the book at him(quite volatile temperament it's certainly possible)
The timing is interesting too...
Their swapping service breaks early in the 4th but he has just gone ahead 3-2 after breaking again.Rafa's will probably gets him home if it goes to a fifth, these pretenders usually can't finish off the greats.
Meanwhile Nicky goes through with a fairly routine straight sets win, beats guys like Garin for breakfast :D
Remains on track to win the bloody thing just 2 more matches, i'm pretty confident he beats the next opponent would rather it was Rafa than the guy with big weapons Fritz.
Ajla T gallant in defeat but couldn't maintain the form after winning the first set, still overall it was a great effort by the adopted Aussie.
Is there some theatre in it you think? Djokovic has form for injuries yet always wins..idk or it could just be the seriousness of these injuries is overplayed, because how do you play at full revs with a serious injury of this type.
Would be disappointing for fans if there was no semi final match-up and Fritz misses out which is unfair BUT why didn't he beat an injured guy is my one proviso..had lots of opportunity to do so.
True winners like the big 3 it isn't in their nature to give up/quit ever and they will always think they can win, then think they will recover and win again etc..idk if it's all that selfish or not to be honest I know from a past one you do and that's fine.
And....I reckon he probably recovers "miraculously" anyway and is a big chance to win again lol

Sun reports;
OH, the irony of it – as Wimbledon and the Royal Family suffered their worst nightmare this summer.
The decision in April to ban Russians and Belarussians from SW19 due to the ongoing war in Ukraine was a bold move but one that divided opinion within tennis circles.
And yet against that political backdrop, it is utterly ironic that the first singles winner of the 2022 Championships was… a Moscow-born player!
Though she represents Kazakhstan on the international stage and has done so since 2018 Elena Rybakina grew up in the Russian capital and is believed to still reside there.

Nick has some demons and NO Filter at all I think he tries to manage them and has improved, obviously still has some fails in this area but I just love the man anyway..
In fact I love Aussie men doing well/winning Slams, I am still upset Wilander phukn beat Pat Cash and that Goran beat Patty Rafter lol
Will be cheering hard for Nicky boy(no bets tho)idk if he can beat Novak(definitelyhas thegame to)but he has shown here he belongs at or near the top level..go lad you can do it!!!!
