Important! Please choose correctly, as you can't change the outcome you have picked. If you accidentally picked a wrong outcome, please message us [email protected] and we will correct it. Grading results wrong and not reporting it may cause an account suspension or even permanent ban.
Outcomes:
Draw - Full return in the event that actually happened. (e.g. the wager is returned in an Asian handicap bet)
Void - bet where the wager is returned. There are plenty of reasons why bets are voided, for instance if a match was cancelled, a player did not play etc. A void bet should not be confused with draw (event result = @1) in Asian handicap bets even if both terms result in the same thing, the return of the wager.
1/2 Win - Half the wager is a winning bet and half is a push in an Asian handicap bet.
1/2 Lost - Half the wager is a losing bet and half is a push in an Asian handicap bet.
Reilly Opelka looked good in his first round win over Pedro Sousa. I thought the more experienced player would win, but Opelka showed that he can compete on this surface. He’ll now face fan favorite Gael Monfils, who was having one of the best seasons in his career before getting hurt. Monfils has learned not to rush back from injury at this stage in his career, so I don’t think he’ll be playing hurt. Monfils might be a step slow in the beginning, but he should win here.
Opelka has certainly got a chance with that serve, but Monfils is no slouch on the service line either, and the clay court somewhat evens them out in that department. Add to that the other qualities Monfils bring to the table- athleticism and shot-making especially- and he heads into this one as a clear favourite. The biggest worry would be rustiness, as he has not played in over a month, but if he can shake off the early cobwebs, he should be too good for Opelka.
