No long intro. We’re straight into the semis at Wimbledon, ladies and gentlemen. Nerves are high, swings are tight, and there’s one American left. Let’s get straight into the picks.
Make sure to check out RyTheSportsGuru’s write-up on the remaining matches here:
Amanda Anisimova vs. Aryna Sabalenka
Sabalenka’s the favorite, but she dropped her first set of the tournament in the quarters. Anisimova’s locked in, and this is her moment. I don’t think she wins (I hope she wins) — but I think she pushes it.
Bet: Over 21.5 Total Games (-125) – 1.5 Units
We’ll sweat this one through at least one tiebreak. Just hold serve, Amanda. That’s all I ask.
Sprinkle: Anisimova set 1 winner + set 1 over 12.5 total games (+980)
I am riding with my fellow American! Win a close first set in tiebreaks. God bless!
Iga Swiatek vs. Belinda Bencic
Iga is cruising. She hasn’t faced real adversity yet, but Bencic is dangerous. Still, Iga’s levels above when she’s in rhythm — and I think she closes this in straight sets.
Bet: Swiatek -4.5 Games (+105) – 1 Unit
If she breaks early, it’s over. This is a statement match. Iga.
Sprinkle: Swiatek under 12.5 games + Swiatek alt. game spread -6.5 (+283)
House on Iga.
Parlay Special
Give me a little taste of chaos protection and value.
Bet: Swiatek ML + Over 21.5 in Anisimova/Sabalenka (+155) – 0.75 Units
The combo play. One dominant win, one gritty battle. If it hits, I will finally take my girl to a sit-down meal.
Let’s get loud. Let’s get reckless. Let’s get paid. God bless the United States of (Anisimova) America.
