US Open - further bets

I am back from the casinos and have placed a number of bets both in-shop and online. The subject of my first bet is the massively improved Simona Halep who plays Kvitova in the New Haven final tonight. Yesterday she dismissed Woza in straight sets. The latter had been enjoying a good run. Co-incidentally SH is a potential qtr final opponent for Woza in the third section of the US Open. You could argue that Halep should be favourite to win this section ahead of Woza given her recent form. I backed Halep to win the section in the Betfred shop @ 5/1 but that has now disappeared. You will need to take 9/2 with VC if you want to follow my wager (unless you have an account with "You Win" who go 5/1). I have therefore booked the bet @ 9/2:

3pts win Simona Halep to win 3rd quarter US Open @ 9/2 VC bet

Also:

1pt ew Simona Halep to win US Open @ 100/1 Betfred (1/2 odds 1,2)

Simona could be Vika's opponent in the semi if both get that far.

In the first quarter I have backed Sloane Stevens with Coral. This is Serena's quarter of course and the youngster already has a win against the younger Williams' sister. The problem is even if SS beats SW again she will have play another match to land the following bet. Think it's worth a chance though:

2pts win Sloane Stephens to win 1st quarter US Open @ 18/1 Coral

In the second quarter, which looks open, I have had:

1pt win Jelena Jankovic to win 2nd quarter US Open @ 18/1 Coral 

In the men's event I have taken a view in the third quarter which appears wide open. The favourite is David Ferrer who has been out of form in recent weeks. Janowicz and Gasquet have chances but I have gone with these two:

 3pts win Gulbis to win third quarter US Open @ 9/1 Boylesports 
 2pts win Raonic to win third quarter US Open @ 5/1 Skybet

Good luck if you play any of the above.

Total 13 points staked.
