My each-way selections in the men's event are already on their way home so you may not wish to read any further.
Serena is now a very warm favourite to lift the ladies' title. However she makes the market conducive to each-way betting in the bottom half of the draw. This features Clijsters against Sharapova and Kvitova versus Kirilenko. The market will tell you the bottom semi will be Masha v Petra, however I thought Sharapova was very poor today. Lisicki should have beaten her. Pova served three double faults in ONE game to go a set and a break behind. Lisicki responded immediately with three double faults of her own to level the match (Tracey Austin - "A stunning come back by Sharapova", what tosh, I could have won that game if Lisicki had served me three double faults!).
Kim Clijsters has moved quietly through the draw and has not lost a set in reaching the quarter-final. She can be backed at 22/1 to win her penultimate tournament, Pova is no bigger than 11/2.
In the other match MaKiri has a winning H2H record against Kivitova and so is not completely out of it. My bets are:
3pts ew Kim Clijsters @ 22/1 with Totesport (1/3rd odds 1,2)
1pt ew Maria Kirilenko @ 66/1 with Paddy Power (1/3rd odds 1,2)
Eight points staked.
Don't be surprised to see a Pova v Kvitova semi-final!!
