It’s all about the lines in this match between Joint and Wang because the prices for each player to take a set are full of juice. The total is listed at 21.5 games and that offer is juiced at -125 so why pay for any of those options on their own?
Maya Joint to win a set in this second-round clash with Wang has odds at -225 and I do not doubt that the Australian can achieve that today. Wang comes in at -350 to win any set in this affair so where else would we go to find any semblance of value than the Over 2.5 Sets prop.
Maya Joint may be ranked outside of the top 100 (109) but the Aussie native was listed at -150 to get past 89th-ranked Alycia Parks and was favored in both qualifying matches which produced wins.
Xinyu Wang is ranked 35th on the WTA Tour but it is easy for me to question that number with the results the Chinese native has lately. Wang is 3 – 6 in her last 9 outings dating back to last season and the win over Rebecca Marino in the first round came down to one break in the third set.
With each player extremely juiced to win a set, let’s hope they take the court and do exactly that en route to a match that goes the distance!
