Lost 5 units on Bondarenko on Friday, and I am looking to rebound with this one.
Davydenko comes into the match scrapping out two victories over fellow countryman Korolev and "rookie" Guccione who had a great serve. Davydenko has already expressed his hatred for this surface and he doesn't make it any easier with his comments this morning about how it's so boring to be at Wimbledon. Just like his friend Marat Safin, the obvious indifference he has for this tournament is quite alarming. Mental grudges aside, Davydenko has also struggled to hold his serve these past two matches, and he was on the verge of elimination against Guccione but a valient comeback brought him into the third round.
Gael Monfils is an up-and-coming tennis player from France and he was a solid juniors player, a Wimbledon champion being in his resume. Monfils looked solid in his first two rounds against decent grass court players, and it was his serve that looked very impressive. The strokes are there, but as long as he keeps a cool head, he can advance to the fourth round.
I wagered on Monfils -160 to win 4 units (risk 6.4 units) against Davydenko, and hopefully the match will be played tomorrow morning. It raises an eyebrow for an unseeded player to be such a high favorite over the #6 seed, and there's definitely a reason for it. Look for Monfils to dictate the match with his solid serve and he won't have any chinks in his armor like Guccione had. Hopefully, Davydenko will get his wish and leave Wimbledon by tomorrow night.
Good Luck guys.
