Finding Fernandez...

Tuesday 18th May 2021

In Ones to Watch today:

  • Ones to Watch – Leylah Fernandez…
  • WTA Belgrade – into the 2nd round…
  • French Open – 200/1 and 100/1 available…

WTA Belgrade – player update…

After a bad day for my French men’s picks in Lyon yesterday, we’ve got two women left in our Outright Winner book this week. Leylah Fernandez (25/1) and Maria Camila Osorio Serrano (20/1) both made winning starts on the slow-playing clay after a wet Monday at WTA Belgrade.

Before play started again this morning, 25/1 Fernandez was down to around 7/1 in general, with 20/1 Osorio Serrano at 10/1.

The withdrawal of the no.1 seed, Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova (citing an abdominal injury) can only help our players’ chances. Especially in the case of Fernandez, whose 2nd round opponent is now Lucky Loser, Viktoriya Tomova, who replaced Pavlyuchenkova in the draw, and took advantage by beating a Wild Card in the 1st round today. Let’s hope the bookies don’t feel the need to enforce any ‘Rule 4 Deductions’ after the loss of the top seed.

Fernandez for the French Open…

Leylah Fernandez also featured in our pre-season Ones to Watch in 2021 list, with the Canadian teenager flagged up as a name to look out for this season and beyond…

And we followed that up by recently adding the 18-year-old as a 100/1+ early-bird pick for the French Open

I’ve had a couple of emails this week from new members asking where to find the best prices on Fernandez for the upcoming Grand Slam at Roland Garros. I can tell you that today, as I write, the best prices available in the Women’s French Open 2021, Outright Winner market are as follows:

200/1 Unibet
100/1 Bet365
100/1 888 Sport

  • Each Way terms: 1/2 odds 1-2 places

I’ll be back in the days ahead with plenty more, as we build up to the French Open which starts on Sunday 30th May.

Enjoy the tennis…

Best wishes,

Tom Wilson
