All things Tennis. The very elegant sport, and the very exhilarating world of betting it. Interesting conversations (with myself) about the beauty of it all. You might learn a thing or two. You might laugh once or twice. But my aim is for you to reach the point where you don"t need me anymore, but want me, and you keep coming back for more.

2022/06/24

1. BHM with a much needed day off. That's the good the news. The bad news: She gets Petra Kvtirova next, and she's in the mood. 2. Movement in the 'washed player' power rankings. 3. Caro Garcia and Alize Cornet beat Sabine Lisicki and Angie Kerber respectively? Yeah, okay. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/saifsmacks/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/saifsmacks/support

Two things haven't changed in my short absence: 1. BHM stays winning 2. Sakkari and Badosa are still god-awful A lot to recap and to catch up on, and a lot to discuss and to look forward to, so I'll just leave you with this: Sabine Lisicki --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/saifsmacks/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/saifsmacks/support

WTA Berlin - F, WTA Eastbourne & Bad Homburg Draw...

The Saif Space ·

2022/06/19

Overlap of the two weeks. Coco Gauff's character got tested today and she failed miserably. Today we got a chance to see what she was all about, and (spoiler art) it was not much. Bencic x Jabeur final, rematch of Charleston final and the third meeting of the year. Maria Sakkari thinks she's good and that is a huge problem for the world. Two really good draws and 1R action starting on a Sunday. An overlap of the two tennis weeks is never pretty, but I'm not complaining. Here we go!!! --- Send in

BHM can't be stopped, and looks like she won't stop. Her SF clash vs Simo Halep is a HUGE test for both players, just to see what they are really about. Coco Gauff looks good and is surely a contender to be the first American woman to win a title in Germany since Davenport in 2005. Despite Bencic's good results, she is still on fraud watch, and her match tomorrow vs Sakkari will tell us everything. Sori Cirstea looks to be in the mood again, and gets the Zhang Banger tomorrow, so let's see. ---

WTA Birmingham & Berlin - QF

2022/06/17

Weird stuff has been going on on the grass this week, so it's time for me to get weird myself. Some of the best grass players from last week, BHM, Alexandrova, Martincova, Riske, McNally (?) are no more. Tomorrow, we will know who is really about it from this weeks contestants, who are mostly all fresh faces on the grass this season. As always, I do a full recap of R2 (Wednesday and Thursday) and preview Friday's QFs. I also take a look at the draw, and project what the rest of the two tournaments

WTA Birmingham & Berlin - Round 2 Day 1

2022/06/14

Muguruza lost, again. She now has 10 losses on the season, and only 7 wins. Is she finished? Who is more finished, her or Kvitova? Where they do they rank amongst their colleagues Vika, Kerber, in terms of finishedness? Is that even a word? Now it is. What do you make of Kudermetova's win over Sabalenka? BHM stays winning!!! So does Alexandrova, I can't believe she's not playing Wimbledon. McNally has more wins on grass this season than any other player, 7. Can she keep going? I think yes. I recap

WTA Birmingham & Berlin - Round 1 Day 2

The Saif Space ·

2022/06/14

A bit of an interesting day 1 of week 2 of grass season. A lot of players are making their grass szn debuts, and it sure looks like it. Andreescu did not impress today but somehow. Kaja Juvan is on fraud watch (although I think that is harsh, but I don't make the rules). Jilly Teichmann (formerly on fraud watch (quite generously, might I add)) is now officially finished. Belinda Bencic is on fraud watch, and tomorrow we will get to see what's good. A lot of good though, both today and to come

First week of grass szn is in the books, and we have two champions who both played amazing tennis throughout the week. Unfortunately, only one of them will be playing in Wimbledon, but oh well. Onto our two new tournaments. Plethora of bangers in the first round across both tournaments, and some bigger names, as well as some new faces that can make some noise.

WTA Nottingham & Den Bosch - SF

The Saif Space ·

2022/06/11

Ajla Tomljanovic is dead to me, and Belinda Bencic is on fraud watch. Harriet Dart just isn't that girl, and British tennis fans definitely need one (this is a low blow aimed towards Emma). There were some good performances today: Kudermetova, Alexandrova, Martincova, Riske. Sabalenka clutched a 3S tiebreak against the Ostrich, in a match that shouldn't have been that complicated. Alexandrova looks like she is nearing 'final form', and it could be scary, not for her though. WTA Qualis tomorrow in

Emma Raducanu & WTA Nottingham/Den Bosch - QF

The Saif Space ·

2022/06/10

Today we talk about Emma Raducanu, and every match from today, of course. I find myself talking about Ajla Tomljanovic, again and again. McNally unsuspectingly good so far, Alison Riske the same, except less unsuspectingly. I talk about my 'list' and why Elena Rybakina's spot is at stake. Bencic has a chance to showcase what she's got against Kudermetova, a non-participant at Wimbledon. Alexandrova, Sabalenka, also on that list, so could they ball out this grass season, or do they not care? ---

WTA Nottingham & Den Bosch - Round 2 Day 2

The Saif Space ·

2022/06/09

Well, we didn't get much tennis today. But there was still some good and some bad. Martincova and Watson, respectively, in case you were wondering. A reoccurring theme this week, rain delays and suspended matches. A look to look forward to in what should be a pretty stacked day, if we are to see the full slate of matches. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/saifsmacks/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/saifsmacks/support

WTA Nottingham & Den Bosch - Round 2 Day 1

The Saif Space ·

2022/06/08

Our first full, REAL day of grass szn. It was an interesting one. Lack of overall quality, which is to be expected on the first couple of matches on the grass, which is the most specialized surface. Daria Saville was the worst thing I saw today. Some really good matchups tomorrow for tennis fans, and even better betting spots for us bettors. Enjoy the good stuff. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/saifsmacks/message Support this podcast:

Roland Garros Recap & Intro to Grass

The Saif Space ·

2022/06/06

Clay season has reached it's conclusion. And onto the good stuff we go (grass). I talk about Iga Swiatek, the WTA tour, and Coco Gauff. I also talk about Rafa, Djokovic, and Ruud. I preview the 'grass season', and discuss the surface and what sort of players/play styles should excel or enjoy success on the grass. I give a list of 3 WTA players to watch out for this grass szn, who I think will impress. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/saifsmacks/message Support

ATP Roland Garros - SF

The Saif Space ·

2022/06/03

Iga's win streak is extended to 34 matches, and she will face Coco Gauff in the final, who put an end to Trevisan's win streak. Can she end two win streaks in a row? Yeah, probably not. The men's matches tomorrow are very promising, and I dig into them and discuss my thoughts on the lines and how they will play out. Should be good!!! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/saifsmacks/message Support this podcast:

WTA Roland Garros - SF

2022/06/02

The HUGE difference between quality, competitiveness, and overall level of the WTA/ATP in these matches is HUGE. Rublev x Cilic was sensational, and Rune x Ruud was quite good. Out of the 4 QFs, that was the weakest one, but overall it has been GIVING! Cilic is looking dangerously good, and I like him to make the final. He has certainly been one of the best players this fortnight and would be worthy of a spot in the final. Kasatkina somehow keeps winning matches, and Iga was tested but it somehow

WTA/ATP Roland Garros - QF Day 2

2022/06/01

I think Novak Djokovic will agree, but I was stunned by Nadal's level to start the match. Nadal gets one back over Novak, bringing their H2H to 30-29 in favor of Nole. Zverev with a very good win, and gets Nadal next; I like an upset there. Coco Gauff beats Sloane, and Martina Trevisan keeps winning. I like an upset there too, that's our first WTA SF. Iga x Pegula tomorrow should be very good, same with Kasatkina x Kudermetova. Rune and Cilic could be the semifinal we never knew we needed. ---

Holger Rune is the second teenager to have his coming out party vs Stefanos at a grand slam. The other teenager was 18 year old Carlitos at last year's USO. Cilic plays the best match of his life, Casper Ruud somehow keeps winning. Qinwen Zheng, my first love, took a set off Iga, and really gave her a big test that Iga didn't quite pass in the first set. Pegula is quietly through to the QF, same with Kasatkina (not so quietly, because of her obnoxious fans (She has fans?!?!?!?)). Tomorrow we get

Djokovic yet to drop a set, and the long awaited QF matchup against Rafa is set for Tuesday, who beat Felix's bum ass in 5 sets today (4 hr 22 min). Sloane won 12 games in a row for the second time this week. Trevisan has now won 9 matches in a row, and 16 sets in a row. Leylah Fernandez and Coco Gauff aren't worth talking about, but I still spent an extended amount of time talking about them. Carlitos continues to impress, what can we expect from him? Felix will never win a slam. Is Rafa x Novak
