WTA Carlsbad Tennis Betting Info
There is a Premier Tier event in California this week, as the WTA heads to Carlsbad. This has attracted some big guns, three of the world’s top ten in fact. There would have been four, but Maria Sharapova pulled out. So the headline of the show here is the return of Victoria Azarenka to action, and also over in the doubles there is an even bigger return with one of the game’s greats, Martina Hingis, putting in an appearance. But betting action will be focused on the singles draw which we’ll preview here.

World number three Victoria Azarenka heads the field this week and she really should dominate this event. However, the question mark over her this week will be her match sharpness, not her quality. This will be the first time that she has played since pulling out of Wimbledon mid way through the tournament because of an injury. Presumably because she is back playing, she is ready in herself. If she is fit and ready to go, then she really should crush the field. She really should breeze her quarter, and really, from her potential semi finalists, she should prevail. Has the best all round game, the best composure and power out of everyone in the field. Azarenka is 11/8 favourite to win at online betting site Unibet.
WTA Carlsbad Tennis Betting Tips
Second seed this week is Poland’s Agnieszka Radwanska. She looked good on reaching the final of Stanford last week, and had the title in her reach before Dominika Cibulkova pulled out a tremendous fight back from the brink of defeat. This is the issue with Radwanska, she oozes quality, but just seems to lack that killer punch when she needs it most. She could be a bit heavy in the legs as well after her exertions last week too, and it will probably have been a bit of a knock in confidence for her. Just to make things worse for this draw, she is in a relatively packed bottom half.
Australia’s Sam Stosur is in the mix again, but her unpredictability keeps letting her down. Has the ability to win event, just not the consistency and is worth looking past. She goes in Radwanska’s quarter, alongside Daniela Hantuchova and Julia Goerges, so it should be competitive down there. Roberta Vinci, going as four seed is projected to be the one to meet Azarenka in the semi’s so that could put a dampener on the Italian’s tournament. She is also facing the likes of Ana Ivanovic and Dominika Cibulkova in her quarter.
Is Cibulkova worth a shot? The diminutive powerhouse had her massive forehand going so well last week on her way to the Stanford title. Tough ask to land back to back events though. So that leaves an interesting marker on Petra Kvitova, who goes as third seed. Still nowhere near her Wimbledon winning best, but still awkward to play against. Not a bad quarter of the draw for her going as third seed and has the potential to make a run here. This is the first time out for her since her quarter final exit at Wimbledon. Could meet the dark horse of the tournament, Russia’s Svetlana Kuznetsova in the quarter finals. The Russian is a previous winner of this event and looked menacing at the start of the year. Faded away, but likes this event.
