23 Feb

5 out of 7 favs won overnight in Acapulco, with Parmentier and Cirstea losing. Cirstea's poor start to the season continues as she was dumped out by the fast improving Fichmann. Szavay gave me a fright losing the 1st set easily before going on to win. There was a rumour touted on the BF forum about a new back injury and her serve stats did seem to confirm that - jury out on that one, may just have been due to 1st match of the year on clay.

As I type it looks like KL is done for the day, though they did play till a silly hour yesterday so can't be sure. 3 of the 5 matches completed so far were won by the fav, with Voegele and, surprisingly, Tanasugarn losing.

Had a pretty good session last night, and didn't have any bets in KL, partly through not being able to stay awake (!) and partly because there didn't seem like any worth having. The obvious favs looked too short especially as it's 1r, and the others didn't convince.
Acapulco kicks off at 5pm UK time today, so there's the possibility of round the clock tennis. There's also CL footie tonight, so an interesting evening awaits!
