Where have all the champions gone? We still have Serena but she is ready to go to pasture. The Wimbledon champ has problems anywhere off of grass. Maria works too hard for her games. All of this gives a wide open field for the ladies this year. So join us at Apex Tennis betting as we examine the futures in the Aussie Open.
No Value for Williams or Other Favorites
- Serena Williams +175
- Maria Sharapova +700
- Simona Halep +800
- Victoria Azarenka +800
These are the favorites and none of them hold a lick of appeal. Maria has to work so hard in three sets so often that even at +700 it seems a reach in this slam. Victoria remains a victim of fitness until she sees the light that Caroline did. Simona is developing into her own and would be borderline at +800. Now we come to Serena whom looked so awful in losing three slams. Yes she did win the US Open but her best years are so far beyond her that +175 holds no value.
Sweet Caroline
Now we come to the portion of the show where we reveal our hand for our futures. Caroline Wozniacki has the fitness to withstand the brutal heat of Australia. At +1000, she is an extreme bargain in this. Radwanska at +2500 has the defensive ability and has show that she can weave her way into Grand Slam finals. Finally for a lottery ticket play, look at Dominika Cibulkova at +10000. Ten dollars or so to win a thousand is certainly worth a flier for a lady whose game could go and stay on for two weeks.
Futures in the women’s game has great value. An overrated legend on her last legs bloats the pool. Maria and her non existant serve makes more slam wins a reach. The rest of the immediate favorites all have chinks in their armor. The reaches could come through for out WTA wagering in 2015. Stay with us as the Aussie Open 2015 is almost here.
