ATP Madrid: Ones to Watch at 40/1 and 80/1...

Saturday 27th April 2024

Ones to Watch in Madrid...

We're having to play a game of cat and mouse with the bookmakers here. With just an overnight window in which to make our moves in the ATP Madrid Outright Winner market...

Play has been running late into the evening each day so far. And with the action resuming at 10am UK time, that doesn't leave yours truly with much time to put pen to paper, so to speak...

That doesn't mean I haven't been giving the Madrid men's market A LOT of thought. I certainly have...

When it all shakes down, I'm going with two names that I had in my notes, right from the off. Both have won tournaments recently...

Ones to Watch youngster Ben Shelton has climbed the rankings fast - and is a quick learner. Each trip to Europe with his dad is a new experience for the 21-year-old American right now. Ben has a big serve that could do some damage in the altitude here in Madrid. And as discussed in my pre-season report, Shelton has the winning mentality and battling attitude needed to prevail at the top of the sport. He gets his Madrid campaign underway on Saturday afternoon. Odds of 80/1 and 66/1 are available. Earlier this month, Ben won a debut clay-court title in Houston...

Sometimes it pays to go with momentum. Step forward, Jan-Lennard Struff. We were on the big-serving German as a 33/1 Each Way finalist here last season. Just last week, the 34-year-old finally won his first ATP title - on clay in Munich. He was impressive in his opening match this week in Spain. We'll take Struff again at 40/1 or 33/1.
