No one beats fat Stan 15 times in a row!

What a difference a day makes. Yesterday I was moaning about Sharapova (not really surprisingly) exiting the tournament. That was followed by a four-point loss on Muguruza's match with A-Rad.

And now - this morning - Stan beats Djoko who had won their previous 14 encounters. But consider this. Djoko, serving to stay in the match at 7-8 30-30, serves and volleys the next two points. Both volleys go out. Match over. Anything to do with a certain German celebrity coach?

The Stan result means - with Berdych having overcome Ferrer - that we will definitely show at least a small profit on the tournament. We have a men's finalist as Stan (50/1 ew) plays Tomas (66/1 ew) in the semi. Stan will probably start marginal favourite, however he was cramping up towards the end of his five-set win so we have a chance of the higher return with the Czech.

Two other bets are still running: 50/1 ew Halep placed in October 2013 - although you could have secured this price last week. And of course the sets bet on the Murray-Federer match taking place tomorrow morning. I'm considering these bets free hits now as the hard work has been done. By Stan of course not by me on the sofa!
