I've been saying this for ages. This British fans supports the underdogs is the biggest load of crap. It's an excuse for Brit fans to hate on European soccer teams for mine.

Totally agree. And I'm saying this as a Brit who under most circumstances (i.e. except when England/a player I particularly support is playing) supports the underdog, mind.

YEAHHHHHHHHH

God I love this.

The ability to STILL get $5 odds on players like Soderling and Berdych against Federer in quarter-finals of Slams is amazing.

Everyone in the tennis world (except John Newcombe, who knows **** all) picked this earlier in the year. He was showing he not only had the game, but he also had the mental toughness and belief.

That win against Roger Federer in the Miami masters has been the turning point.

Got on Tsonga at 3/1 against Murray...with the draw supposedly opening up for Murray he's bound to go out.

Soderling 2 sets up against Nadal as well

Soderling only one set up guys, and Rafa just broke in the 2nd.

This is going to be sweet.

Channel 9 can **** off showing me Michael Clarke bat over Nadal vs. Soderling.

RAFA BREAKS IN THE THIRD!

I hate myself right now for not getting on Nadal at $3.5 when he was 5-0 down. I wanted $4, got greedy. Stupid.

Tsonga set point. Got $20 on him at $5, simply because Tsonga is unpredictable as **** and $5 is nice odds, even on grass.

Go you good thing.

This makes no sense. He has 2,000 points over Novak, loses about 1,000 now, then Novak gains about 500 for a SF instead of a QF.

Just quoting ATP website's twitter. I'd assume they are correct though.

I'm going to get on whoever loses this third set between Rafa and Soder I reckon. Don't mind whoever wins (though prefer Rafa) so it'll kind of be win/win. Plus I reckon it'll be 5 sets.

checked it now. 1,740 point difference between winning and a qf. Fair enough I suppose.

Still a bit weird that Novak will be No. 2 even if he gets knocked out in the semi - won't have reached any of the last 11 Slam finals.

Söderling looking beaten here.
