Hold the Khachanov 11/1 ticket for today but absolutely useless with Djokovic @ 8/100.
Djokoviv v Khachanov
KK has not impressed so far and I think he could go down badly today.
Djokovic match games under 18.5 @ 16/10
No idea how Tsitsipas is going to do so taking the double
Djokovic/Alcaraz win 3-0 @ 24/10

My initial thoughts were that Djoko and Alcaraz would both win 3-0.
Then I watched an interview with Khachanov and he is hopeful, he wants to try his best.
Well, everyone tries their best up to a point when it comes to playing against Djokovic.
Tsitsipas is the third best player on clay, not counting Nadal, as he is out of the question right now, and he could steal a set from Alcaraz.
Alcaraz lost a set to Taro Daniel in the second round, so he isn’t invincible.
I finally decided on these alternative handicaps, played "safe":
Djoko (-5.5) + Alcaraz (-4.5) @1.88

After Khachanov won the first set the odds on Djokovic went to 11/20 - quite surprised by that. Took 6 units so made a profit of 2.3 units on the match. Would have to say that the Khachanov drop shots are not as well disguised as Alcaraz's. I think Djokovic will be in big trouble against Alcaraz.
Alcaraz v Tsitsipas
Called the first match wrong and had the exact same feelings on this match ie easy for Alcaraz. On the basis that I have no idea what I am doing going to take
Tsitsipas over 15.5 games @ 17/20

Zverev vs Etcheverry
Etcheverry is in good form and has played very well so far. He is the only player left who has not lost a set yet.
It is very likely to lose a set or two or even the game now, against Zverev.
Zverev impressed here too, and lost just one set.
Even though Dimitrov didn't test him too much, Zverev made 7 double faults in three quick sets.
Against Tiafoe he made 10 double faults.
These things do not bode well in view of this match.
Etcheverry will very likely test Zverev.
Both players should win at least one set and therefore give us a long match and help this bet arrive.
Bet: Over 36.5 games @1.83

I don't think that Etcheverry will be beaten so badly that he won't cover this handicap:
Etcheverry +5.5 @1.83

Thought I made a bit on the Djokovic match yesterday but forgot the bet and the double which both lost.
Zverev v Etcheverry
Zverev just has not had enough on-court time to be at 100% since his injury. This gives Etcheverry a small chance so agree with Quill on the games. Also found this at Bet.co.za and I like the odds
First set 7-5 or 7-6 to either player @ 7/2
Going to try my double one last time. It is currently 6 and 0 for the tournament.
Over 3.5 sets
Zverev/Rune @ 14/10

Muchova vs Sabalenka
Sabalenka has won all five of her matches in straight sets. She has been pushed to only one tiebreaker, by Sloane Stephens in the fourth round.
She is good on clay, she played the final in Stuttgart (lost to Iga Swiatek) and was then won the title in Madrid (beat Swiatek in the final).
Muchova has not been tested here yet, and outside of a first-round matchup with Maria Sakkari she has benefited from a favorable draw.
Bet 1: Sabalenka 2-0 @1.83
Bet 2: Sabalenka + bet builder (Swiatek under 12.5 games + Swiatek 2-0) @2.04

I'm away this weekend, so just posting my bets.
Alcaraz vs Djoko over 38.5 games @1.90
I am also of the opinion that Alcaraz will beat Djoko, however at odds 1.44 I have to find something else, either to combine it or leave it at the overs bet.
Ruud to beat Zverev @2.00

Alcaraz v Djokovic
I think these players are reasonably even but clay is Djoko's worst surface and Alcaraz's game just seems made for the surface. I would take Djoko at Wimbledon any day of the week, go 50/50 on hard courts but we are in Paris today so going
Alcaraz -3.5 games @ 17/20
Also taking the double
Win
Alcaraz/Zverev @ 18/10

I posted this in the rugby thread as well.
So Griquas is at -3.5.
Alcaraz is also at -3.5.
In my wine sipping affected thinking, I thought it's too much of a similarity, so I took the double
Griquas + Alcaraz @2.30

Djoko vs Ruud
I hope Ruud can make a contest of this, but I'm afraid it will be a 3-0 to Djoko.
I know that Ruud's idol is Nadal and therefore he'd have one more reason to try his best to prevent Djoko from getting his 23rd, but...
Unless this turns into a five-set marathon, which I hope it does, but don't expect it to, Ruud should not go over five aces. He has stayed under this number in four of his six matches in Paris, including in each of his last two.
Djokovic has been aced more than three times only once in the last five rounds. That was by Khachanov, who is a much bigger server than Ruud. Djokovic is arguably the best returner of all time, so it’s not easy to ace him, especially not on clay.
Casper Ruud Under 5.5 aces @1.80
