THE women’s European Championship kicked off today with Italy v Finland but the game I’m more interested in is Sweden v Denmark (7.30pm, live on BBC3). Hosts Sweden are third favourites for the tournament and look set for a decent run, probably all the way to the Final and a potential meeting with Germany. They are a best 4-6 with […]

ANDY MURRAY is joint favourite to win the US Open after landing his second Grand Slam of his career at Wimbledon on Sunday. The Scot and Novak Djokovic are 15-8 with BetVictor and William Hill and such as the power swung so much to those two that Rafael Nadal is 7-1 while Roger Federer and Juan Martin del Potro are […]

Canada v Martinique (10.30pm), Mexico v Panama (1am) I HAD great success on the Confederations Cup games but I’m not sure about the Gold Cup. Most of the sides are less well know but one thing I’m pretty sure of is that the USA are likely to emerge as tournament winners. The United States and Mexico have dominated proceedings with […]

I’D love to see Andy Murray crowned Wimbledon champion on Sunday but his task is as tough as ever. It’s the match-up I tipped pre-tournament and for the last fortnight with world No.1 Novak Djokovic facing No.2 ranked Murray. The Serb is slight favourite with the bookies at 8-13 with Paddy Power and Skybet while the Scot is 6-4 at […]

PUNTERS have deserted the British and Irish Lions on the eve of the deciding test with Australia (11.05am KO) in Sydney. Ladbrokes report a sensational turnaround in betting behaviour and are forecasting the busiest match in rugby betting history. David Williams of Ladbrokes said: “Betting has gone berserk ahead of the Sydney showdown. We’ve never seen interest like it and […]

SABINE LISICKI will be the choice of Wimbledon fans – and has been chosen by punters as she bids to land her first Grand Slam title today. The German has won over the Centre Court with her golden smile and obvious love for the game in contrast to rival Marion Bartoli who skulks around swatting anything that moves. There couldn’t […]

IT was one out of two for me in the women’s semi-finals but I hope for a full house from the men’s games on Friday. I tipped an Andy Murray v Novak Djokovic final at the start of the tournament and several times during it so can’t go against that now. The world No.1 and No.2 are now just 1-3 […]

AFTER the drama of the men’s quarter-finals that ended with Andy Murray battling back from two sets down to join Jerzy Janowicz, Novak Djokovic and Juan Martin del Potro it’s the turn of the women to hog the spotlight on Thursday. The first semi-final sees Marion Bartoli face Kirsten Flipkens followed by Sabine Lisicki against Agnieszka Radwanska. I’m staring with […]

IT’S odds on at 4-9 with Coral that Andy Murray will meet Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon final – and it’s difficult to argue with that assessment. Djokovic-Murray was what I tipped at the start of the tournament and while both have sailed through to the last eight it’s the world No.1 who has looked the most impressive of two […]

I’VE never been as disappointed with a winning Super Single as I was with Sabine Lisicki to win more than six games in her match with Serena Williams. The bet paid a tempting 11-10 with Paddy Power and it was just about up as the German sailed through the first set. Williams walked the next but Lisicki held her nerve […]

BRAZIL easily beat Spain in the Confederations Cup Final and the pair are 10-1 with bet365 to lock horns in the same stadium in the 2014 World Cup Final. Player of the tournament Neymar is 8-1 with the firm to finish as top scorer in his home country next year while Fred and Torres, who dead-heated for the Confederations Cup […]

BOOKIES are preparing for the busiest day at Wimbledon as for the first time since 1998 there is British interest in the second week of the men’s and women’s singles. Andy Murray is 1-25 with Coral to beat Mikhail Youzhny, while Laura Robson is slight underdog, at 1-1, to overcome her fourth-round opponent Kaia Kanepi, the 8-11 favourite. Murray is […]

IT was a really good Saturday for Winning Insights who put tips up for four races and picked two winners and a place. Let’s hope you were on all on Rawaki in the 3.35 at Windsor. Our man picked it out at 14-1 and it came home in front at a starting price of 10-1. He also took favourite Clowance […]

Second Test, Saturday, Melbourne, 11.05am GEORGE NORTH claimed a wonder try in the Lions’ first Test win over the Aussies last week – and he is 10-1 at Stan James to touch down first today. The opener was a thriller with Wallabies full-back Kurtley Beale slipping as he missed a late penalty that would have won the match. So Warren […]

FOR the past couple of years a Daily Record readers has sent me tips on events such as cycling – and they’ve been pretty good. So with the Tour de France about to get under way I though I’d sure Peter Tuck’s thoughts on the big event with you. Peter writes “The Tour de France starts on Saturday and pre-race […]

IT’S looking more and more like an Andy Murray-Novak Djokovic Wimbledon final after the Scot eased through to the fourth round. Murray has been is just 5-4 with Coral to win the title after a super show that blew away Tommy Robredo in three sets. World No.1 Novak Djokovic remains favourite at 1-1 money and he has yet to drop […]

THE weather was more shocking than the results at Wimbledon on Thursday – although one of my tips Milos Raonic was well beaten by Igor Rijsing. Andy Murray is back in action on Friday and I can’t see anything but a victory for the Scot. However, there is a chance he could drop a set to tenacious Spaniard Tommy Robredo […]

ANDY MURRAY is 11-8 (from 2-1) second favourite with Coral to win a first Wimbledon title this summer after the British No.1’s path to the final opened up on a dramatic day. The Scot cruised through to the third round at SW19 with victory over Yen Hsun Lu this afternoon but potential semi-final opponent and seven-time champion Roger Federer crashed […]

LAURA ROBSON joined Andy Murray as the only Brits to reach the second round of the singles when she knocked out No.10 seed Maria Kirilenko on Tuesday. Coral have cut the odds on the English girl winning Wimbledon to 100-1 but despite Virginia Wade’s optimism it’s not going to happen this year but she could go through another couple of […]

ELLIS’S £10 is now up to £26.03 after five successful short-priced singles. He’s aiming to go all the way to £1000 and it could take a while – but at least he didn’t back Rafael Nadal in the first round. Ellis placed three tennis bets yesterday on 2-15 Mikhail Youzhny, 1-10 Radek Stepanek and 1-6 Marion Bartoli. Watch out for […]

RAFAEL NADAL suffered one of the biggest shock defeats ever as he crashed to Steve Darcis in the first round of the men’s singles at Wimbledon. The Spaniard looked out of sorts as he went down in straight sets to the Belgian and his defeat means the draw has opened up slightly for Andy Murray as well as Roger Federer […]

ELLIS started his second bid to turn £10 into £1000 by showing more patience and hitting a winner. He launched his latest attempt with Neil Robertson to beat Robert Milkins in the snooker and his tenner is now £15.33. As advised Ellis then called it quits for the day and is likely to put up bet No.2 for Sunday. I […]

Brisbane, Saturday, 11am BOOKIES are reporting solid support for the Lions to win the opening Test on Saturday morning and William Hill have cut them from 4-6 to 8-13. According to Hills 72 per cent of clients are backing the Brits to beat Australia and bet365 have cut the Lions to 4-7 despite their midweek loss to Brumbies. None of […]

ELLIS launched his challenge to bet his way to a £10,000 and fell at the hurdle after getting a little carried away. His first two bets landed but he went in a third time on volleyball – the first tip for that sport I’ve seen on this site – and it flopped. I believe Ellis is giving it another go […]
