This joyful Cypriot got the sympathies from the Cincinnati crowd with his terrific performance, especially in the last match against world number 1 Rafael Nadal, when he played outstanding drop shots, and returned impossible Rafa’s shots. He is a very brave player and it seems like he doesn’t care much who is on the other side of the net as he always gives his best and plays with a full strength. His shots are strong and precise and I think this is his moment of excellent tennis, which can get him to the finals. On hard his record this year is 23-8 which just proves his great abilities and physical condition that is at a high level.
One match and the semis is there
The living tennis legend, Roger Federer, is really treated well by the miss fortune. It sounds incredible but it’s true: The Swiss entered these semifinals by only playing 1 match in total, and it was the last one against Davydenko. Federer ended his first match against Istomin after not even completing the first set, leading 5-2 when the Uzbek retired, while his next match wasn’t even played as Kohlschreiber retired it before it started due to a shoulder injury. And there we have Roger in the semis again, with the smallest efforts possible. His current form is not what it used to be in his best days, but it’s clearly enough that he gets far at each tournament, a bit due to his rivals’ fear but more cause of his skill and luck. However, I think he will be stopped before the finals this time.
Brave Baggy in the finals
I believe that if Baghdatis shows the same game as he did against Rafa Nadal last night, he won’t have to worry about winning this match. Currently Nadal is certainly a better player than Federer even though he isn’t in the best form either, but if Marcos managed to defeat Nadal I believe even the great Fed won’t mess his attempt to win the title here. The Cypriot is a very clever player and easily adaptable to his opponents, so I think with the odds given it’s a great opportunity for some more value on today’s betting card. I am going on Baggy to win. Good luck.
