Karlovic's match will last longer than this thread
Bets on how many games this last set will be?
God I hate how much the fucking crowd is cock riding Bedene every single time he gets a point.
I hope Karlovic buries this cunt within another 4 hours : ^)

She isn't going to win with how streaky she is.
>>76912897
She lost a set against a literallywho with 6:1. she's weak. If she has to play a mental monster like kerber she's kill.

Being good at sport is always a good idea in countries that are sort of developed.
Unlike true shitholes, wealthy people can give their kids training. And unlike well to do countries it isn't discouraged as less important than school.

bitch I gotta ball with your bitch at the mall
>>76914965
it's games m8. Mannarino's total games won +3.5 to be higher than Lopez total games won.
Lopez matches have all been pretty close in the grass court swing. 7 tie breaks in Queen's alone. Mannarino is a competent grass court player and made a final last week. if he sneaks a tie-break set the bet more than likely comes in
>>76915086
why would you bet at 7/4
lopez should win in straights and i highly doubt he would do so in 3 breakers
>bracquets still not upd8'd
>>76915260
Sometimes they don't even get updated at all until the end of the round.
>>76915134
how shoud he?
he's dropped sets to every player he's faced in the grass court swings except simon and wawrinka. the probability that he drops a set rises with moving to 5 set matches.
the grass is slower here at wimbledon than it is at queen's or stuttgart, and lopez return game on grass this season has been significantly weaker than mannarino. significantly lower % on return games won, %return points won, break points conevrted %.
why would i bet at 7/4? because it is essentially the same bet as betting on mannarino to win at least 1 set, which is priced at 4/6

This might come down to anticipating or "reading the play/opponent" more quickly

the return
>>76920351
footwork is super important right
i'd say that is definitely a high up skill for tennis
and being very stable mentally and not retarded

the way he runs at djoko
Wimbledon debutant Henri Laaksonen spends 150.000 CHF per year. He doesn't have a home. His sole possession: A car.
When Stan Wawrinka won the US Open last year, he earned 3.500.000 USD at once. Whereas the best earn a lot of money, the air grows thinner and thinner for the second string players. 100 players reached prize money levels of 250.000 CHF last year, but appearences are deceptive. Taxes eat one quarter of revenue, add expenses for coach, physiotherapist, travel, lodge. Henri Laaksonen, who reached a Grand Slam main draw for the first time in Wimbledon, says, his expenses add u to 150.000 CHF per year. "Life on the tour is expensive. That's why I do everything by myself. I book hotels, flights, and do my accounting.
Laaksonen earned 420.000 USD so far. Hardly anything is left of that. On the contrary: The federation has spent more than 500.000 CHF on his career since 2009, according to Alessandro Greco of Swiss Tennis. Laaksonen profits especially from coaching expertise, infrastructure at the Leistungszentrum in Biel, where he practices for free. Coaches Sven Swinnen or Roland Burtscher assisted him on tournaments for free. Those two as well as fitness coach Beni Linder played a major part in his development.
All of this was managed in a so called pay-back contract. If Laaksonen earns enough money in the future, he has to reimburse Swiss Tennis for a part of it. But never more than the federation invested in his career. "Of course we hope that he can one day live off his tennis earnings. Whether that happens, we don't know." says Greco. It's much more important that Laaksonen represents Switzerland "where the music plays": Grand Slam tournaments and the Davis Cup.
....
Might translate more later, if anybody cares.

When Stan Wawrinka got knocked out of wimbledon the first thing he bought was a car. Henri Laaksonen bought a hot dinner
>>76920491
yeah, and? this guy does not seem too good though, already 25 and has nothing to show for his tennis 'career'. if anything, tennis is one of the sports where you can earn a lot of dough if you are good.

Swimming with sharks
While Laaksonen earned a low fixed salary during his first years, he is now only getting performance based payments. "Our goal is to educate players on self-reliance". The Sporthilfe supports Laaksonen with an additional allowance of 30.000 CHF. The federation has also arranged patron Reinhard Fromm as a sponsor. Swiss Tennis regards itself as a federation for juniors, "after that the players have to learn how to swim in the shark pool by themselves" says Greco.
Laaksonen is now 25 years of age and expected to stand on his own feet. Today he enters the main draw of a GS tournament for the first time, where he plays the Czech Lukas Rosol (31, ATP 213). A tennis milestone, but also a financial one. The loser earns 44.000 CHF for reaching the first round, before the horrendous British taxes which eat half of the prize money. For his dream of independence Laaksonen sacrifices a lot.
He doesn't have a home. "I'm in Switzerland for only 10 week per year, it wouldn't be worth it." He lives with his grandfather in Schaffhausen, his father Sandro in Lausanne or his mother Pirjo in Vantaa (north of Helsinki) instead. "I live out of my suitcase." His only possession is a car, currently parked in Hamburg. What he earns is invested in his career. He is paying two coaches, Olli Leppanen and Tuomas Sketola, who share the support. Add to that fitness coach Pekka Kainulainen. Reaching the main draw in London "is a big surprise although I only played about 20 days on grass".
If he reaches the second round, he becomes a top 100 player of the world for the first time. That's only an intermediate goal. "I'm not going to pull punches I want to be a top 50 player." Heinz Günthardt, advisor of Swiss Tennis is convinced of Laaksonen's potential and believes that it's crucial Laaksonen himself feels like belonging there. A smiling Laaksonen asked about his opponent "Certainly not easy, certainly easier than Roger."
There aren't a lot of shared moments with Federer and Wawrinka. "We seldomly see each other. They are playing bigger tournaments." In Laaksonen world every Rappen (1/100 CHF) counts. To establish himself as a Top 100 player is existential. "My account" he says laconically "is still showing green numbers. I'm still travelling. I must be doing something right."

So Gulbis just plays for fun right? He comes from a rich family I think.
>>76920811
Indeed

>>76920811
seems like it. Fuck rich people, the only reason he even needs to do anything is an excuse to get out the house, he will literally never have to work a day in his life.

This is Zverev's future desu

Laaksonen isn't even Swiss kek
Serve and volley is a style of play in tennis where the player serving moves quickly towards the net after hitting a serve. The server then attempts to hit a volley (a shot where the ball is struck without allowing it to bounce), as opposed to the baseline style, where the server stays back following the serve and attempts to hit a ground stroke (a shot where the ball is allowed to bounce before contact is made). The serve and volley style of play has diminished in recent years with advances in racquet and string technologies which allow players to generate a great amount of top spin on ground strokes and passing shots. The slowing of court surfaces and deflation of balls, promoting longer rallies for the enjoyment of spectators, has also put a damper on the serve and volley style. Some also claim that a lack of teaching of the serve and volley to juniors, who are too small to effectively employ this method, has caused it to become obsolete in grassroots tennis.
How many games will Federer lose during the whole tournament?
I'd say 18, he'll let Murray score 5 games in the first set of the final to let the crowd hope a bit

And BBC podcasts such as Melvyn Bragg's In Our Time are Federesque as well. Strangely again German non-fiction audiobooks are heads and shoulders above any English ones.

As I read the headlines I just imagine an Englishman looking at me with a troubled, uncomfortable glare, like that of a man who must explain to his blonde son that the heyday of Anglosaxon supremacy is over. He struggles to find the politically correct words in an attempt to protest another wave of migrants which threaten to wash away the last relics of British identity. My astute senses pick up on his internal struggle as the lawmakers which ought to defend him keep selling out a whole continent as part of their appeasement policy.

Why are you lifting then when lifting gibs you gainz not strenght? You only need to do pull-ups and push-ups and additionally somemsport that requires you to use your arms. You don't need no gay gym for all that.
