Tips for tomorrow:

Haas to beat rochus @ 1.86.

Haas imo has a much better all round game and i think will be too physical for rochus

It might seem obvious but nadal is a god on clay and i would advise to back him outright even at 1.72 to win the tournament. He has won it the last three years and i can't see anyone capable of stopping him, even fedex under current form

also

ancic to beat minar @ 1.56

these two came through the junior ranks to the atp at the same time but are simply on two different levels. ancic's class will prevail.

Agree with both of them Morten. Haas is coming back from injury though but does have 3-0 H2H record over Rochus. Good value bet. Also Ancic looks good odds to account for Minar. Imo Ancic has the class to prevail and is a good bet imo.

Also considering Murray to beat F Lopez, but will do a bit a bit more research before I make a final decision.

Cheers and Good luck Fingers Crossed

i know, didn't see that coming. I placed my bet on Betfair, i didn't get a refund. I take it thats normal?

yeah some places refund, Betfair would have no interest in voiding tennis bets as they would lose commision on the match, Ladbrokes are another, theirs been talks with atp over this and some court issues worth looking into through goggle.

Grosjean to beat Karlovic x Andreev to beat Tursunov @ 2.12

Hoping for a straightforward double here, Karlovic is struggling physically, retired from his match in Estoril with a knee injury, and he has never won a match in Monte Carlo in 2 visits here. Grosjean won't get a better chance than this to get his claycourt season up and running with a win.
Andreev is by far the more comfortable claycourter in the all-Russian matchup, and leads the H2H 4-1. My only worry is his disappointing loss to Korolev last week but as long as he is fit his claycourt game should be too much for Tursunov who has an atrocious record in the big clay events.

Good luck Win

interested by murray to beat volandri today - usually would Lay murray at shortish prices against these types of players, but IMO he seems a pretty decent price today at about 1.67.

thoughts? Confused

Murray's my tip today too titan. Took him last night and will back him again. Volandri leads 2-1 H2H though. Murrays 2 loses to Volandri on clay, however the second one of Volandri's wins was when Murray withdrew whilst leading 5-1 in the first . Think Murray well have his measure this time around.

Cheers and good luck

Vliegen to beat Gasquet Lay 1.46 on Gasquet

"In practise, yesterday, he injured his back, forcing his withdrawal from the doubles tournament. He is a doubt for the singles, but has been given a late start".

Ahhh, Lay 1.46 now and expect 1.6 by the start possibly more.

With all the mounting injuries Gasquet these days is very fragile.

Big bet hopefully get a nice price to hedge a bit off at Smile

then go all green inrunning when hes serving at 50%

09:00 David Ferrer vs Marat Safin
David Ferrer (To Win Match) @ 1.44
Was thinking 1/3 and was hoping i cud maybe nick some 1/2, but no bookies taken a chance. Ferrer is both at home on clay and the hard stuff, his win at valencia puts him in excellent form for this, he fought like a cat on his last life their to comeback from the brink after trading as big as 100/1 in running. Safin i thought would get a match of malisse, but it appears hes not back to his best yet. Ferrer should take care of safin on this surface, and im sure safin doesnt want to be here

Interested on peoples thoughts on tipseravic v lapennti

I think it will be much closer than price suggests as lapennti is at home on clay.

Djokovic to beat murray @ 1.4

Djorkovic is quite comfortable on clay whereas murray has more problems adjusting to it. The surface and that fact that novak lives in monte carlo should show a fairly polished performance.

sorry andy, maybe another day
