Legg Mason Match: Benneteau v Nishikori

[MrCleo]

Benneteau's -170 vs an 17 year old from Japan whose coming off a very busy July and has also lost in the first round in 4 of past 5 tournaments.

is it me or is this a very good price on Benneteau? Benneteau top 60, Nishikori ranked 276....I know that rankings shouldn't be taken too seriously. This Nishikori did beat Berrer in Indianopolis. He played in 4 tournaments in July, while Benneteau just one.

Only reason Benneateau wasn't more favored is because Nishikori had some big wins last week in Indy. It's the same with Steve Darcis. Nobody knew who this guy was before he won in Ameersfoort last week. Robredo was only -185 against Darcis this morning. I nailed that moneyline on Robredo because I thought he was cheap. Normally he would have been priced -360 or higher if not for Darcis' recent success. It's all perception.
