Favs won 3 of the 4 semis on Saturday, the losing fav being Patty. Then the favs won 1 final on Sunday (Szavay) but lost the other (Pennetta). Didn't get to see any of the matches but by all accounts, Kanepi put in a fine performance. Good to see her getting back to the form she was in before she got injured last year in Madrid. Can't believe Szavay kept on going, her winning streak over the 2 weeks of 10 matches is the longest of her career I think. Back to back titles are quite rare. Deserves a nice week or 2's rest after that!The circus moved on today. I didn't write down the SP's of the qualies, favs won 7 of the 9 1r matches, losing favs being Makarova and Malek. Malek was a fine 1.01 gubbing, losing from 6-1 5-2 up. 1.4m GBP matched on that match - amazing amount for a 1r on a Monday morning. There wasn't a feed from Portoroz - starts tomorrow - and the feed from Bad Gastein was appalling. Shows how used we've become to having streams! I'm sure there was better coverage of Bad Gastein last year - maybe tv coverage starts later in the week.
Had a good day with several small wins all adding up to a good total. Also had a couple MLB bets last night. Nice start to the week.
A lot of action tomorrow, with 22 matches over the 2 tournaments. Sadly only 4 will be streamed from Portoroz - the Bad Gastein stream is unusable.
