Women's event in profit with Mirra in the final. If you played, hopefully with larger bet on MA ew than MK, as suggested. Latter hopeless, could only win one game in Aryna encounter. The world No. 1 will be a tough match for Mirra.
IW: taking on the top four with two players at double-figure prices: Keys 14/1 ew (Fred, two others 16/1) and M Andreeva 12/1 ew Skybet. MK has not played since AO so don't know her fitness level, therefore smaller bet than MA.

Two out of form players meet tonight: Gauff v Sakkari. The Greek holds a 5-3 H2H over Coco. The last time they met was here at Indian Wells, and Sakkari won in three sets. I don't often bet on individual matches. However, I am tempted by the current 5.0 Sakkari on Betfair Exchange.

1/2 The SAG awards, which are voted on by actors, can indicate which way the Oscars will go: the acting branch of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is the biggest voting bloc in the Academy Awards. Overnight, TC won best actor boosting his chance of the Oscar Gong.

My first ever post on here! Not a bad one...
Zverev is guaranteed yr end No2, so he should start No2 seed at the AO. Therefore, he would not meet JS until the final. Have taken 12/1 ew (Fred). Have also backed US Open finalist Taylor Fritz 40/1 ew (various), who may cause an upset today.

A Complete Unknown. What a film. Saw it the day it was released in a 500 or 600 seater Vue "Extreme" cinema. I was one of six punters. Sensational sound system, brilliant acting from all the cast particularly Timothee Chalamet. Will see it again if I get the opportunity.

Pleased to get a 5/1 return with Keys. 40+ UEs the two matches I watched, so feel a bit fortunate. Can't fancy her against Iga who has made good use of her favourable draw.
1/2 Decided to take on Rybakina in quarter three. Wouldn't normally be supporting someone who has just won a tournament on the eve of a GS, but Keys looked so impressive in beating Pegula I've taken 5/1 (skybet, b365, others) her to win the qtr. Also, smaller bet Boulter 16/1...

How did Keys win that match today? 44 UEs. Will have to improve dramatically if she is to progress.

Just Coco left for me in the ladies'outright. QZ having been surprisingly beaten (not enough prep?). Got a feeling an improving Osaka could upset things. Taken a saver on Naomi to win quarter two @ 11/2 (WH/others).

BBC 6pm news. Highlights of today's play at AO: Raducanu win (fair enough), Collins mocking the Aus crowd for partisan support. Not mentioned: five set defeat of three times finalist, Medvedev in 4hr 45m to 19-year-old American who had only won one GS previously (1st round here).

All my three FA Cup selections have away draws in the next round. But at least they've been kept apart. Particularly like the look of Nottingham Forest, who will play at Exeter. Quite a few firms offer 25/1, and I've topped up my 40/1 bet with a bit of that.

1/2 Iga has the best of the draw. My two selections are both in Aryna's half, which is disappointing. Coco 11/2, QZ 16/1. Both EW prices were taken in Nov, but not a lot shorter now (thanks to draw!)...

FA Cup starts tomorrow. FWIW, I've added in-form teams Nottingham Forest (40/1, skybet, b365, others) and NOOcastle (12/1 generally) to my Chelsea bet a few weeks ago. All EW. Looking for some winter interest for, hopefully, more than a couple of weeks!

Wolves are 15/8 to be relegated with Lads/Coral after last night's 3-0 defeat at home. Next five Prem matches: Newcastle, Chelsea, Arsenal, A Villa, Liverpool. I think they may be shorter than 15/8 after that sequence...

Coco has not faced players of the calibre she beat to win the WTA finals, where she triumphed over world nos 1,2 &5, nevertheless showing her well being with easy wins over LA Fernandez 6-3 6-2 & Vekic 6-4 6-2. On at 11/2 for Aus Open. That price is still available with Betfred.

Well, that worked out OK then...
Some firms now ew four places (11 run), so that's worth looking at. I've backed Banbridge 5/1 ew with Skybet and, having bet LHomme Presse 16/1 win only, I've now topped up @ 11/1 ew with Skybet. So those are my two against the field. Good luck if you get involved.

The demise of home advantage continues. Ten Prem matches played this weekend, and just one away team failed to get "something" from their match - Man City!

I may well have two or three bets in the King George, particularly if the ew terms are more favourable on 25/26 December. For now, I can't resist a small WIN ONLY play on L Homme Presse, given it's likely to be V Williams' sole representative. Currently 16/1 with Lads/Coral.

They say it's good to be a "judge of judges." I've not had a bet on the horses since flat finished early Nov. Can't help noticing several judges go for Erne River 14:05D. I can understand why. Best price currently 18/1 EW four places WH and 14/1 five places Skybet. Interesting.

Zverev is a short price to beat Fritz in tomorrow's semi. You can't rule out the American though, who's had an extra day's rest. Fritz leads the H2H 6-5 (won the last three). I won't be having a bet, but I think the encounter will be closer than the market suggests..
