Keep in mind that you could count on one hand the number of tennis plays that I make in a year, so I'm not exactly someone who handicaps the sport (though I do watch a ton of it)...I thought that Nadal at -155 was a pretty big underlay and made a play on him. I thought he'd be at least -200 based upon current form and their recent history. Obviously Rafa will have to serve better than he did the other night, but he seemed to lift his game to where it needed to be every time that his back was against the wall (especially in the two tiebreakers). Plus Dimitrov had been playing really well coming into that match and had given him trouble last year so I figured it would be a tough one. I was wondering why the line was sitting where it was, and thinking that it would be tough for someone to make a case for playing Federer at +135. Willing to share any thoughts as to why you like him in this spot?
