2010 Aussie Open - Men

Wow, BB73, hide this page from the rest of those greedy BPers.
You have set up a contest with some incredibly generous odds!

Fed at 4-1
Rafa at 6-1
Sure appears to be some easy v-money for plucking!
But alas, we realize. . .
Virtual Vegas was built for and by people who are really bad at math. :wink2:

Women's tennis is a better thread

That's because this thread has no pics!

I think Roddick has a chance to make a deep run, he's in Del Po's qtr, and I believe he has a chance to beat him, a lot of people aren't high on Del Po's chances this tournament for whatever reason.

Seems to be some questions about Del Potro's health. This article is from 1.13.10.

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP)?Juan Martin Del Potro has pulled out of the Kooyong exhibition tournament with a wrist injury just days before the start of the Australian Open.
The U.S. Open champion was scheduled to play a Friday semifinal against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, but informed tournament director Colin Stubs that he would not be able to compete.
It was not immediately clear how serious the injury was, or whether it would threaten his participation in the Australian Open, which begins Monday.

Cilic just took out Del Potro in a great 5-set match. They played for 4:38, and it ended at 3:30 a.m. Central time (8:30 p.m. in Melbourne).

It was worth staying up for, especially since I have vCash on Cilic but not on Del Potro. :wink2:

Watching the replay on the deuce--Roddick looked like he was finished after dropping the 3rd set.
Momentum, injury, crowd noise all seem to be affecting his play.
Could it possibly be that Andy can pull this one out?
Must be a mistake for some of us to have invested vbucks on Roddick. :)

I finished watching it from the DVR - I won't tell you the ending since it might still be going.
