AFTER his quarter-final struggle against Ernests Gulbis world No.1 Novak Djokovic was back in dominant form as he eased past Jeremy Chardy 6-4 6-4 to reach tonight's Rogers Cup Final in Montreal.

He'll battle Andy Murray for the trophy after the Scot impressively beat Kei Nishikori and in the women's final in Toronto Belinda Bencic – who stunned world No.1  Serena Williams in three sets – takes on Simona Halep.

There's also a stellar line-up for the closing stages of the Perth Masters darts where Michael van Gerwen – 11-10 title favourite at bet365 – is 2-7 at BetVictor to make the final at the expense of James Wade, a 3-1 underdog at Skybet.

In the other last-four clash defending champ Phil Taylor is 8-11 at Paddy Power against Gary Anderson (6-5, Sportingbet).

There's also the likes of rugby league and international cricket among the day's sporting highlights so let's hear your tips and thoughts and good luck with your bets.

    I was going to take Astros o7.5 hits but bet365 moved the line to o8.5 just as I was going to put it on.

    Posted these two Union tips mid-week and both landed with relative ease yesterday.

    France to win with a +9 handicap
    Bet365 odds: 10/11
    (15th Aug, 8pm KO)
    *WIN*

    South Africa to win with a -5 handicap
    Bet365 odds: 10/11
    (15th Aug, 8.40am KO)
    *WIN*

    England stayed true to form by showing some great attacking play, however again showed they lack a big game mentality and real physical presence upfront. But hey-ho,it meant the tip came in. I was amazed at the Handicap price South Africa were at (maybe the bookies over considered South Africa’s defeat last week) anyway, was happy to take it off Bet365 as it came in with ease.

    Struggling to find much value today so will just be sticking with one Rugby League bet which will be in the Super 8’s championship shield.

    Hunslet vs Workington
    Sun 16th, 3pm KO
    Workington to win -8 handicap
    Bet365 odds: 10/11

    Hunslet ended their championship season with 10 straight defeats and looked to ship points for fun. This has continued into the super 8 fixtures conceding another 30 last weekend. Workington on the other hand are on a decent run of form and hold a lot more experience and creativity within their squad. I expect them to pull away in the second half of this one.

    GL lads.

    Great win for Bencic last night. I got on her at 5/1 just before it started. She looked like she was going to get outplayed but came back unbelievably. Can’t see her beating Halep tonight though.

    Great tipping Jamie I know nothing about Rugby but your write up & a rugby mate convinced me of that double.

    Going for a smallish bet on bencic d halep @ 2/1. I can’t decide who I think will win this, so those odds looks good to me. Halep is nackered, and if bencic has enough left herself, mentally and physically after taking down Serena, I think she can take halep out too.

    Hunslet vs Workington
    Sun 16th, 3pm KO
    Workington to win -8 handicap
    Bet365 odds: 10/11
    *LOST*

    Workington secure the win 22-18. But absolute shocker as they didnt score a singal point in the second half. Very surprised and killed the tip.

    Still, moneys doubled this weekend with 3 Rugby bets, so cant moan too much.
    No more bets for me now until next weekend, as i consider the weekends offerings when i get some free time!

    Bencic, what a babe! Had her to defeat Ivanovic,had her to defeat Williams,taking her to beat Halep.

      Dazzler well done on your Fernandinho & Ivanovic carded double @ 9/2 on the football thread

  9. Dazzler 9 years ago

    Cheers Dazid. Don’t usually go into the dark depths of the football thread, so it’s nice to come out with a winner lol.

    Can’t believe you got done again in extra innings!

  10. James Hanly 9 years ago

    wow!!! Bencic takes the 1st set.

  11. Dazzler 9 years ago

    Red Sox o8.5 hits @ 1.68 *won*

    Bottom of the 5th and Red Sox have 9 hits.

  12. Felix 9 years ago

    Think it was a no brainer to back Bencic in the 3rd.

  13. James Hanly 9 years ago

    Halep…blody cop-out!!!

  14. Felix 9 years ago

    Went with a bookies which doesn’t void retirements after the first set. Unbelievably easy money.

    See few.baseball tips on here did anyone see the irish lad had 13 home wins last Tuesday.Won over 100k

  16. Dazzler 9 years ago

    Red Sox o8.5 hits @ 1.68 *won*

    Add
    Reds o6.5 hits @ 1.71 *lost* 1 short

    Double @ 2.89 *lost*

    Cheers Dazid. The annoying thing was I wanted Astros o7.5 for the double but by the time I’d found both picks bet365 had moved the line to o8.5, so I left it and they got 9 tonight, grr!

    Happy with the single and the footy win though.

  17. Dazzler 9 years ago

    Dazid unlucky on both yours.

    Cards giving up a 3 run lead and Tigers taking the lead, then getting back in it and only to lose it in the 9th.

    Supertipper yeah heard about it but it was 15 teams, first time in the mlb all home teams won on the same night. Previous high was 12 so he’s a very lucky lad.

    Cincinnati WTA-
    Williams and halep are the ones to bet against here I think. Halep just retired in the Toronto final and will surely be suffering physically going into Cincinnati, if she even turns up.
    Williams is also not certain to go deep here. As well as her surprise defeat to bencic proving she can be beaten, Serena also has a recent history of pulling out a few rounds into a tournament , even on the semi final once earlier this year, to save herself for a bigger prize. With the U.S. Open gettingclose it would be no surprise to see her focus being somewhere other than on the cincinatti title.

    Azarenka @ 9/1
    Stephens @ 40/1
    Lisicki @ 100/1
    Lisicki @ 45/1

  19. Ad 9 years ago

    Also going to take a fairly wild punt on Fish to shock Troicki @ 5/1.
