"I know that Gulbis is the player with the most potential right now," Federer said. "Unfortunately, he doesn't have the ranking he deserves. I took him very seriously. I wasn't surprised by how he played."

Has anyone seen her ? Because she should be playing a WTA Final in Auckland tonight. Kim and Justine are present in Brisbane, Yanina is waiting in Auckland, but Kirsten, the 2003 Wimbledon and US Open Girl's Champion, just didn't show up.
I don't do many outright bets but it's often fun going into a Grand Slam with some money on an outsider who could do well. The Australian Open often has surprise finalists (Baghdatis, González, Tsonga) so I put €10 @480 on this year's surprise package: Ernests Gulbis, who took a set off Federer today.
Now watch him go out against a qualifier in the first round.
I didn't do much today. Spent the day at my girlfriend's. I still managed to lose a bet on the Aussie markets, though.
Laid Wickmayer, 1.19. Could have gone out when she was breakpoint down, but the price at BP was lower than at SP, and probably rightly so, judging by the end result. Another Belgian was so nice not to lose either, although she tried. Belgian women... tssss.
p.s. my girlfriend's Belgian and she's really, really nice. (Just in case she reads this...)
If I'm not mistaken the original film played in India and that's where the first big loss of the season comes from... The remake featured me totally messing up the Cilic match, me not sticking to my plan and as per usual me not being very lucky.
I backed Granollers (otherwise known as the Temple of Doom) at 1.46 a set and a break up, when he hadn't been broken once in a set and a half, and had faced just one breakpoint. When the match was over he had been broken 5 times and I was feeling like somebody had spooned my brain. Nice going, Marcel.
Dr. Ivo saved the day somewhat, but I see it more as a missed opportunity. Oh well...
In the Aussie markets, Baggy was ready for the bin and Caravane Rezai just didn't want the second set.
