He reached finals here last year, semis Wimbledon, quarters US Open in 2024

The fact he stuck around after dropping first 2 sets shows he tried to at least make it appear less fixed.

What was he like -800 to win this ? Vs a 19 year old ranked #119.

I won’t even touch his matches these days - short of betting against him the first set. Notorious slow starter and loses way too many matches vs inferior opposition.

insane match!!!

the problem with a huge upset is getting value LIVE betting.

2-0 and the odds were -115/ -115

2-1 and Medvedev was -210 ML

then 2-2 Medvedev was -800

Then Med broke 6-5 serving for the match and got rebroken to go into tiebreaker

even tiebreaker Med was up 7-6 serving and lost 4 straight

YES I watch a lot of tennis. I watched pretty much all 5 hours of this match
