So close to getting past Kvitova yesterday, Venus only lost her serve once throughout the whole match. That was the last game of the final set which she lost 7-5. Very disappointing as the draw had opened up with the earlier exit of the number two seed Li Na.
Kvitova now finds herself only a 7/1 chance to win the tournament as, on paper, she is expected to at least win the next two rounds. I think that would have been the case for VW too (perhaps 10/1 - 12/1) which would have given us a serious chance of getting a return had she made the last four. All academic now though and I suspect that was VW's last realistic shot at a major.
In the men's event Dimitrov is on course for a qtr final with Murray and is around 5/2 to reach the semis. Lopez and Janowicz are still in it for the third qtr bets however Federer is looking ominously good in this section.
