ATP Madrid Open

I watched an extraordinary match tonight: Dimitrov beating Djokovic in three sets. The young Bulgarian played some incredible stuff to beat the world number one. The match lasted over three hours with the underdog cramping badly at the end of the second set. He recovered to take the third set in what was an incident packed match. 

I have had an each-way interest on Dimitrov for the title. The problem is he may struggle to recover from tonight's exertions. However if he does then the way he is playing at the moment he has a shot at making the final. He is in the opposite half of the draw to both the odds-on favourite Nadal and Federer (who is second best in the market now). Dimitrov will probably play Fat Stan next and then Tsonga if the seedings work out. His potential semi-final opponent is Murray, who although winning in straight sets, did not impress me today. So a speculative wager as follows:

1.5pts ew G Dimitrov to win ATP Madrid Open @ 33/1 Boylesports (1/3 odds 1,2) 

Three points invested.
