WIMBLEDON TENNIS .... DAY 1


ZACK FLEISHMAN - TOMMY HAAS
ASHLEY HARKLEROAD - ROBERTA VINCI


Fleishman came through qualifying and has some 15 wins on grass, however, this is more of an anti Haas bet. The German has not played since Rome, withdrew from Halle and just a few days ago claimed that he was 50-50 to play Wimbledon. You should be prepared to take a little lower price to bet with a bookmaker that will pay out after one set, in case of a retirement.

Harkleroad looks big, she won a minor tournament on grass in Liverpool and is 4-4 at Wimbledon, unluckily running into Sharapova twice. Vinci is 9-4 here, but most were qualifiers, 8 of those wins were against players ranked 125+ and 5 of them well over 200.
She has lost 7 of her last 8 matches and looks worthwhile taking on, with a player who is rediscovering her love of the game.

3.5 points Fleishman 3.0 +
4 points Harkleroad 2.86 Pinnacle.


Good Luck.
