Jankovic v Wozniacki
Really fancied JJ in this when I had a look this afternoon and felt the odds were the wrong way round or that a lay of Woz 2-0 was certainly in order.
I came in just as JJ held for a 4-0* lead in the 1st set and rather rashly I rushed straight in with thoughts of what I'd missed on my mind.
As I have typed this Woz has held to love I think for 4*-1.
Come on Jelena close this set out nice and easily please.
Hmmm 0-15 ... My betplacement may have just been on the brink of a momentum change here! ... Hope not though 15-15 ... 15-30 ... 15-40!!! Oh wait a challenge ... Challenge is good still 15-30 ... FFS now it's 15-40!!! ... BREAK!!!
4-2* Come on Jelena break back now please. 0-15 c'mon ... 0-30 ... 0-40 TAKE the 1st!!! ... Break Super stuff :-)
5*-2 Serve it out now please JJ. No Fecking about!!! 15-0 ... 15-15 ... 30-15 ... 30-30 c'mon JJ I said no clowning around! ... 40-30 Take it please ... pffft Deuce ... SP#2 this time? ... Nope Deuce#2 ... Oh Lordy Lordy BP! ... Deuce ... Better serve SP#3 third time lucky??? YES SET Jankovic
LOL I can lay off at 1.45 a whole tick lower than I got on at! Woz to serve 1st in the second set though so have to hope for a break straight off!
0-15 c'mon JJ you can do it!! ... 0-30 ... 0-40 brilliant from Jankovic :-) ... 15-40 don't let her back in this game! ... BREAK!!!

3-1* Now for the double break? ... Great hands!!! 0-15 ... 15-15 good point ... 30-15 ... 40-15 ... Hold.
3*-2 OK Jelena need to keep the service games going here! 15-0 ... 15-15 ... 30-15 some great tennis from both there ... 40-15 right on the line!! 40-30 Take it JJ ... Holds!!
4-2* Got to be a break here!! Well not got to be but it would be nice ;-) ... Double Fault is a good start! 0-15 ... 15-15 ... 30-15 ... 40-15 ... Holds!!
4*-3 Market is laying Jankovic in anticipation of a break here! They may be right but I don't think I'd be getting much value laying out now! In Jankovic we trust! (Gulp!!!) ... 15-0 ... 30-0 ... Keep it up JJ ... FFS DF 30-15 ... 30-30 do not tighten up JJ .... BREATHE!!!! ... 40-30 Take it!! ... HOLD!!
5-3* Break for GSM anyone? And a side order of double faults please :-) ... Good Point 15-0 ... 15-15 ... 30-15 ... WTF? An ACE??? 40-15 ... Holds.
5*-4 Jelena to serve it out? 1.14 is low enough for me not to risk the break thankyou. especially as it was 1.21 at last change over! All GREEN!!!!
