Adrian Mannarino vs. Tomas Machac: A Senior Moment in Cincinnati?
The ATP Cincinnati Open’s “Battle of the Ages” sees 37-year-old Adrian Mannarino (struggling since 2023) face Tomas Machac, who’s suddenly decided to take tennis seriously. The odds? Machac is the undisputed favorite, with bookmakers pricing him at 1.50 decimal (implied probability: 66.67%) across the board, while Mannarino’s long shot odds of 2.50-2.65 (implied 38.5%-40%) suggest bettors expect a naptime for the veteran.
Key Stats & Odds:
- H2H Implied Probabilities: Machac (66.67%) vs. Mannarino (38.5-40%).
- Spreads: Machac is a -2.5 to -3.5 set favorite, with prices like 1.76-1.95 to cover.
- Totals: The line is 22.5 total games, with Over at 1.77-1.95 and Under at 1.77-1.83.
Why Bet on a Nap?
Mannarino’s “class and experience” (per the news) might not matter if his serve turns into a butter knife against Machac’s precision. The totals line hints at a low-scoring tussle—take the Under 22.5 if you expect a defensive clinic, or the Over if Mannarino’s age-induced panic leads to a 7-6, 7-6 bloodbath.
Final Verdict:
Machac’s youth, focus, and refusal to retire early make him the obvious pick. Unless Mannarino decides to moonwalk through the net cord and win by technicality, this is a Machac & Co. production.
Place your bets, but don’t bet your grandma’s dentures. 🎾
